When i'm still at Elementary School. I work so hard to get good grade so my parent can proud of me. I'm not clever kid but i can study hard. Previously i'm at rank 30 of 45 in my class. And i study so hard for at least not get red point of score (equal to D). When i graduate at elementary school, i show my report book to my dad. none of them got D, mostly B. But suddenly my dad yell if this is not good and can't be proud of. I was get shock after that. I mean, my rank now is 11 of 45 in my class, and my dad still don't satisfy? Since then, i have no intention to gain good grade, my junior High School grade report is suck, always got D, D, D, even E and F. And i'm pretty sure if i can't enter a reputate Public Senior High School. Luckily, a new Public Senior High School is builded near my home. I accepted, but still not having any intention to study and alwasy got D, D, D, and D. I even drop to the last postition, i become the most dumbest student in my class. However, my teacher motivate me when i'm in class 3 (equal to class 9). At least i must get rid all the D and C, because if in my graduate form got D and alot of C, i will have a problem to entering Univesity. So i study hard to raise my grade. But, i had failed in Entering Public University Test, and i don't care anymore about what happen to me. My dad seems know about what in my mind, and suddenly a letter from Private University came to me and asked me to join in. For your Infomation, Private University cost alot of money than Public University. This is reputate University, my dad read the letter and tell me "if you want to get college, just join in, don't worry about money". I take this oppotunity because graduate student from Linguist class can't enter IT-computer science class at University. In my country, at class 9, studen't can choose 2 types of class, science class (biology, chemistry, physic, math etc) or social class (Geograpy, accountan, social relation ship, math, etc). And the "cast away" class, linguist class (local languge, english, Deutch, etc). Linguist class considered as class who full of dumb student. Well, i must admit, they right. But since most of my friend are crazy and can do alot of unthinkable act, we survive. My friend got 2nd position of the most highest score from all student in my school, and everyone suprised and mumbling if that's impossible when my friend name get announced. Back to me, no IT-Computer Science claas in All University will accept graduated student from linguist class, that's the fact. But since they call me, i got an exceptional, and i know, if i'm not taking this, my life are getting worst. All my new friend in University did not believe if i came from linguist class, but that's the fact. And how that happen? Previously, that University Held a tryout consist all major subject like biology, math, chemistry, etc. And since i got no problem working that tryout, so my best guess is i got a good score like student in science or social class. The point i want to tell you, all parent. Be very carefull when you talk to your children, you can't just yelling at them without thinking. Look what happen to me... Most children today got stress just like mature.

I think we all yell sometime or another whether we meant to or not. I try my best not to yell at my kids but i am human. I do find other ways to get their attention and normally that works. By taking the tv or play time away or a special toy.
