By the time we start thinking of our kids in school i am sure the center and state govts would have crushed India to a pulp and spit it out...sigh!!!Sanjanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13200956002578533966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19482707.post-1150532350315555902006-06-17T13:49:00.000+05:302006-06-17T13:49:00.000+05:30Hey LS,yeah i still read novels while eating and s...Hey LS,<BR/>yeah i still read novels while eating and see TV at the same time.

The Education, no doubt, is the best in India, but the system should change. Luckily I didn't have a goal as to what I wanted to become. I remember saying I want to become a bus driver when someone asked me when I was a kid. But, the present day first grader knows what he or she wants to become and they are clear on the steps to reach their goal. I was surprised to see a 7th grader talk about shares and stocks few years back. He must be a millionaire by now.<BR/>On the personal note, I know what happened at our home. He He. I remember your mom literally begging you not to read.... read novels ofcourse HE HE :). Have you stopped reading novels while eating. I used to remember you when I read about time sharing and multi programing. Used to wonder how you are able to read a novel, eat your food, watch TV and talk to me. All at the same time :))<BR/><BR/>Have to pull my little sis sometimes nah!!<BR/><BR/>-LSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19482707.post-1148976346316576452006-05-30T13:35:00.000+05:302006-05-30T13:35:00.000+05:30Hmm... havent we also faced some of it in some for...Hmm... havent we also faced some of it in some form or other.. ? I guess the line between guiding a child towards a good future and forcing him into the parent's idea of a good future is blurred. ..Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18009547152196531872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19482707.post-1148916376546031882006-05-29T20:56:00.000+05:302006-05-29T20:56:00.000+05:30Yeah N, we do have it better than many other count...Yeah N, we do have it better than many other countries,and I never even bother to compare Indian education with any other country's. We are numero Uno and no two ways about it. But we had it even better... So, why spoil a good thing. I could not help but write about it after I saw some of the Indian parents... the sad fact is that they don't even realise what they are doing.Sanjanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13200956002578533966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19482707.post-1148912479836071242006-05-29T19:51:00.000+05:302006-05-29T19:51:00.000+05:30u know wat Sanju .....inspite of this atleast thin...u know wat Sanju .....inspite of this atleast things work out far better in India.
