假如送孩子來海外讀書﹐也是為了他們將來出人頭地﹐那真與西方教育真髓相違了。人從小有種潛能﹐每個人不一樣﹐孩子的潛能未必符合家長的願望﹐符合社會某些價值觀。在加拿大﹐孩子們學到的就是樂在其中﹐但家長假如把自己願望以各種方式﹐例如暗示﹐例如為他們安排自以為理想的朋友等﹐來影響他們要走的路﹐那還是留在亞洲會好點﹐因為那裡的大環境已經符合了這些家長的意願﹐不必那麼勞氣。

I totally agree with you!
For example, my son asked me to let him learn how to play piano when he was about four years old. I can see the difference between the children who was forced to learn and love to play piano during those years when I attended the music festivals with my son.
On the other hand, nice photos!

Thank you very much, Amy. Hope your son will keep his enjoyment in piano.
