Have more patience with your family before you treat the rest well. You don't know when they'll disappear before your eyes. You'll lose the connection before you realise it. NO more raised voices punctuated with irritation or accusation glares. Please change, change, change.

YES. HA201 5-page movie review DOWN.
The tutees have set me thinking about the pure kindness of children.
Due to some mistakes committed, the kids' mother wanted to send their domestic help back to the maid agency. Visibly affected by the haste decision made, their natural reaction were evident in sullen, moody expressions and teary eyes. They wept together with their caregiver, feeling the pain that she felt. The sharp instinct of these kids did not just stop there. Upon realisng that reality is more or less cemented, the children went all out, to the best of their abilities, to try to stop the tragedy from happening. They pleaded with their mother to give their caregiver a chance, begged me to put in good words in exchange for good performance during tuition. They even came out with Plan A, Plan B and Plan C, which remained unknown to me even, only to be kept within the Circle of Trust of a 5-year-old, 8-year-old and 10-year-old.
Their efforts did pay off. The hushed tones and whispers, coupled with solemnness, caught the attention of their mother. Seeing the affected children, she relented and called for a private meeting with her domestic help. Eventually, things ended on a good note with compromise on both sides and the kids were all smiley again. (: They touched me so much that I could feel my heart smiling together with them too.
无邪的笑容。
