There is one sector that is moving faster than all other sectors, the teenage parenting sector. What was set in stone one day had never even been mentioned the next day, according to the teenager himself.
Young Master Dewlar is almost done with the first term of grade 10, which in his school is a preparatory year for his Diploma Program.
Last night our son and I attended a Teams meeting. The purpose of the meeting organized by the offspring's school was to inform both guardians and students what a DP education entails and what is expected of our children.
During the meeting, it was made clear that the students must choose 1 subject out of 6 different groups that they will study during their DP education. At least 3 of these subjects must be studied at a higher level while the remaining 3 at a standard level. It is also possible to choose to study 4 subjects at higher level and 2 subjects at standard level.
I was surprised when our son declared that his intention is to study 4 subjects at a higher level. But as a tried-and-true teenage parent, I assume that he has changed his mind when he comes home from school and would prefer to study 4 subjects at standard level, even though it's impossible.
