I read an article in nangyang siang pao (18th Sept 2008) making a sweeping statement that those students who are lazy in school, naughty, or branded by teachers 'stupid' always do better in life compare to those hardworking, studious and excel in school. Later, the writer said these are the people(good one) who are going to be jobless. Why they do not like schooling? The syllabus are boring and not conducive, too many restrictions, thus they wouldn't like to go to school, said the writer. I totally disagree with the writer and I believe the writer never been to school for a long time and not knowing what is really happening in school. No doubt, some had came out in life but how many, whats the percentage? Earning lots of money doesn't mean they are successful in life. Look at those who become 'A Long' or do 'side door business', they also earn tons of money, can you say they are successful in life or better off compare to those educated one who earn an honest living?
Nowadays schools are equipped with lots of teaching media such as computers, CD, LCD etc. The classroom are comfortable, some classes with air-cons. There are computer lab, library, Science's lab, KH lab, ERT room etc and all these facilities contribute better education for the students. Compare to those days we had nothing except science lab and the teachers were chalk and talk specialist but still many of us came out successful in life and we always feel grateful to our teachers and school.
Those students who are lazy, naughty and trouble maker in school are problematic students. They have ATTITUDE problems, could also be mental or emotional problems due to their family back ground. These lots of attitude problems students usually give a lots of excuses for their laziness. They love to play, waste time, disturbing other students or challenge school regulations. They find interest in nothing at all, not even in co- curriculum such as sports and games. Even if you organise a trip these people wouldn't participate. What they are interested in is to play with their friends, talking in the class while the teacher is teaching or sleeping the whole day . You must know that they have activities at night such as computer games, chit chat 'yam char' . The simple reason they are like that is because their parents could not control them. Most parents are too busy to seriously care about their teens behaviour outside school. Some parents even sided their children for all the wrong things they did. The worst of all is the parent who discourage them to school because they are big enough to work at least can help the parent to lessen the burden on car or house installments.
Many of them stop schooling half way as the writer said' not interested' anymore in school life. They are lazy because they like to enjoy. They take life easy, schooling is suffering because need hard work. So, these lots of 'LAZY BUMS' when they go out to work won't last them too long in each job. After sometimes you may find them stop working, doing nothing! I have few students like that. These people are tendency to meet those bad guys who might later drag them into 'black society' who do underground business.
Those who are not educated but still can come out in life are not many . They can, provided they have no attitude problems. Education carters not only job opportunity but also wisdom. Only through education could create professionals. A wiser person make better decision than a dumb one. Those students who excel in their study have positive attitudes, they are resilience, hardworking, determine, discipline and confidence. When talking about 'SUCCESS' it mean more than 'MONEY'. Education can make them a better man. Success is subjective, but to me, its the value of your life; how much you can contribute to the well being of mankind.
