In the beginning of this school year, Jc class has a new Chinese cum Form Teacher, Mdm T. She was scolding the class daily and Jc could not take it. In my family, really can talk about Law and Grace. Haha....as you already know about the Law part, today I will talk about the Grace. :D
Before Jc was born, I learnt about how good the brain develop under encouragement and love to how the brain will develop about defence if a kid is always under condemnation. So, for Jc first 5 years of life, we gave her much happiness and joy. She was so much into this that even at 11, she enjoys love so much and could not stand condemnation at all. I don't know if I did the right thing in her growth, but if explained in Grace, then it is okay.
Anyway, this Mdm T had been scolding the class and building her anger that one day, she walked angrily into class and BANGed her bag onto the wooden table that even the teacher in the next class came over to check if she was okay.
This scene registered in Jc as great fear that she escaped her Chinese remedial class. She told me looking at the teacher in class already is more than enough. She did not want to see her again after school!!! Jc even wondered if she could fail her Chinese tests so that she need not study it anymore!!!
The teacher had to command Jc to come to her remedial class twice before Jc went. Mdm T called me that afternoon and I had to advise her to cool off, not to stress up by the kids.
That evening, I was prompted to write a letter to Mdm T. I let her know that kids reacted in 2 ways under accusation --> rebel or escape into cave. Jc belongs to the 2nd group.
I also shared with her on Pastor Lian testimony on her teaching days. Pastor Lian as a new teacher in a secondary school, was sent to teach the lousiest class. In this class, there was this boy that was real bad. He could throw class furniture around when antagonised. Daily in class, he played a pen knife and even disfigured the table. The teachers were fearful of him!
Pastor Lian, being a young teacher, decided to pay him a visit. He lived in a rented 1-roomed flat that the whole family clamped in there. After the mum talked to the teacher, this boy came to the door. Pastor Lian wanted to praise him but there was nothing good of him to talk about!
Then, Lord led her to see his face looked like some Hong Kong star and the boy agreed that his friends told him so too! He finally had a smile on his face.
After that encounter, the boy had good impression on the teacher and even helped her with carrying the students book to office. Even though he still hardly talk, but he did not play his pen knife anymore. Glory to Jesus! End!
After I wrote the letter to the teacher, Mdm T talked to Jc, and asked why Jc run away from remedial class. After some guessing, she asked Jc if she fearful of her and Jc said yes.
The school wants all teachers to talk 1-1 to the pupils at least once in the whole school year. Jc got her talk with the Form Teacher recently. Teacher asked about what subject she like, comment on her love on gymnastic and asked how she relax herself. After the talk, Jc now said she like the teacher. Glory Glory!
With so much condemnations in school, kids do need some fresh air of care and concern. For Jc, if I am angry with her, she will want me to hug her to give her some comfort. So, the scolding always end with comforting her.
I am glad with what Lord has been helping me to deal with situation in daily life. Usually all things work out well. Glory to Jesus! Amen Amen!
