Teenage BGR
My 15 years old cousin's relationship seems to be the latest topic in the family. While the trend of BGR [boy-girl relationship] among teenagers has been quite prominent even during my time, young lovers these days are getting more opened to PDA [public display of affections].
I was actually quite surprise that even secondary school students in school uniforms were holding hands along the streets and hugging each other on public transports *faint*. One of those were my cousin who was with his girlfriend when i saw them in Orchard Road after school some weeks ago. Then, he reminded me NOT to tell my mum that I saw him and he didn't even bother to introduce his girlfriend to me for the fear that all the information might eventually go to his mum *silly*.
Off course, I did what I was told not to *lol*. I told my mum and the rest of the girls at home but I did reminded her not to tell my aunt (mum's younger sister). Subsequently, my mum and sister saw him again at Orchard Road just last week but this time round he was even bolder, he pretended not seeing them. So my mother did according to the wish of the 15year old, she kept mum about the 2 incidents.
This morning, my aunt called to enquire about tutoring science for my cousin. My mum always have the fear that I can't teach my cousins well enough to answer to my aunt and uncles so she rejected all those requests. As usual, she rejected and then told me about it.
For as long that I can remember, I've since returned all my Chemistry and Physics knowledge to all my teachers ever since I stepped into Arts:P I can't remember how to balance a chemical equation and solve those forces sums.
But that's not the most important part.
Interestingly, my cousin is SMART! He studies in ACS (how bad can his studies get?) while I studied in a neighboring school which has bad reputations many years ago and my aunt should know since we all live in the same area. Ultimately, I went into Arts in uni and there's basically NO LINK as to why I'm in the best position to coach him.
*LOL*
So I analyze the whole picture and told my mum that perhaps my aunt just want to make him stay at home under the supervision of another cousin aka Tutor! Despite she's a stay home mum, there's simply no way she can stopped him from going out for the fear he might get rebellious. At least, having tuition would prevent him from bringing his girlfriend home or just simply hang out till 6pm everyday. After all, his parents are very concern of having a grandchildren far too early:P haha.
So much so on this cousin, then there's still another 13 year old cousin.
Just on Monday, my grandmother was telling us that the maid at their place claimed to have seen the 13 year old with another girl from his tuition center hanging around at the bus stop. His father aka my uncle warned him not to go into BGR else he will kill him *LOL*
U see, the irony is no matter whether you keep the boy in a boy school or make him go for tuition everyday at some tuition center, BGR still happen and can't be stopped!
Wondering about how to coach the children of ours in the future...
