如果不是有这一番造化，我现在的光景肯定会有大大的不一样。虽然我常常庆幸自己可以得到一份奖学金供我升学，另一方面却遗憾没有在更早的时候就为自己的人生作更好的规划。
现在我终于明白到教育的意义，不单只是让学生吸收课本上的知识，更重要的是让他们拥有人生的目标，和懂得如何达成目标。
小弟有一中学同学，年约 35 岁出头，
此人好命非常，自中学毕业至今，尚未为人打过一天工，
此前他父亲每月给 600 零用，直至今天他已为人父，，，！
新年我们有同学聚会，会后，他微有酒意的单独对我说，
他父亲已将财产分给了他，约有 30 万现金，
外加现时居住的单层排屋。
因为他没有社会经验，怕被欺骗，所以不打算做生意，
他说他想投资股票，问我有什么好的介绍，
其实他投资经验比我早，早在 97 金融风暴前就已经投资股票，
只不过最后，，，唉！还是不说了。
我见他有本，所以就介绍了 IOI，大众，伦平，马交所，
F & N（新加坡），交易所（新加坡）。
以下是他的情况：
年龄：35
工作年资：无
储蓄： 300k
投资：暂时没有
月薪：失业
贷款负担：车贷，屋贷已还清
家庭：双亲尚在，妻子有工作，两个女儿已上小学
开销：每月 4 千
每日活动：不会上网，不喜欢运动，不看书，天天坐在家等运到
人生目标：希望天天有美女投怀送抱
以上是一个我从网上看到的个案，如果该名网友没有夸大的话，他的朋友可真是人间极品，简直和废人没有分别。虽然我说得很不客气，但那也是事实。父母以为将最好的东西都给了子女，不让他们受苦就是对他们最好的安排，却不知道反而害了他们。以后如果我当了父母，一定会引以为鉴，让他们接受正确的教育，做个有理想和抱负的人。

I cannot overemphasise the importance of parenthood in the growing up of a child. As a child, we tend to accept who we are and who our parents are, because humans are flexible, they will love their parents even if they are starved for a meal or two. And because of this tolerance, many parents, especially the fathers, took it for granted. In the old generation, a father would consider himself worthy if he could provide meals to the family, and there is no obligation for any parenting responsibility. As a result, the child would turn out losing in direction of life. Some may turn out to be a sissy, some may even join the dark side of the world as misled by the wrong type of people.
I think the example in this blog shows a poor child who is so uncertain of himself and has grown up and had his own family. He doesn't know how to make use of the fortune left for him, except to invest in a very risky business--the share market. I can't dare to see what comes next of his investment, expecially during this time of economic crisis. The parents' love to their son may turn into a sad story if luck is not on his side.
Who do we preach? the parents or the son? My first reaction is to scold the son: for not being more able in life, and rely on his parent's pocket money. But, after thinking a step deeper, it's the fault of the parents all along! They have not taught this son how to fish, and have instead provided daily fishes on his son's plate. This act of so called love just destroyed the future of their beloved one, making him useless in society, and a basically parasite.
I believe there are many real examples of such kind around or involving us(!), where parents prouded themselves for so and so success in life, only to discover that their most important result is a complete failure!
There should be classes for parenthood.
