Maybe you were like her when you were young and you needed someone to grasp your brilliant and creative mind.<br /><br />Whatever happens to Iza, no matter how her education unfolds, to read this letter and to know that her mother understands will save her and keep her from being crushed and formatted.<br /><br />I have a niece, Isabelle who lives in Shanghai and is educated in a similar enviornment and her mother too, wonders and wonders...She and Iza are the same age.Jeanne-ming Brantinghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289074358298750184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-43033564181553813962010-07-01T02:25:01.222+08:002010-07-01T02:25:01.222+08:00Without great thinkers, there will neither be prog...Without great thinkers, there will neither be progress nor innovation. Iza is very special, and her creativity and intellect need to be nourished. You must be her advocate, and not let the educational system discourage her to be her true self.just mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14474709689102780450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-15760460232269785212010-07-01T01:20:27.037+08:002010-07-01T01:20:27.037+08:00My heartfelt thanks to you all!

We try to adjust our mind and heart whenever we hit a block during this school year ... iza learns a lot of lessons (apart from the knowledge from books) and grows a LOT. <br />Many times, i feel like formating her mind ... and, i know this formating process is so critical ... we are now thinking of making a voice instead of staying mute.alliot + izahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453050617775088241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-15553595115492213312010-06-30T21:25:00.339+08:002010-06-30T21:25:00.339+08:00All the best to special iza and her special mom......All the best to special iza and her special mom...it's a long road ahead but I know it's gonna be a great journey for both of u.joophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09291803366696503805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-84489867488184032582010-06-30T08:44:37.607+08:002010-06-30T08:44:37.607+08:00I agree 100% with Fei An, she needs another enviro...I agree 100% with Fei An, she needs another environment to thrieve. She is brilliant, far deeper in understanding than the teacher and the material. My advice would be to speak to the teachers because you do not want to crush her spirit. If her confidence in herself and her knowledge are dismissed or given a bad grade then you will have a real problem in your hands. You do not want beautiful Iza to become depressed and discouraged. You have in your hands a unique child who one day may very well change the world. You have to be her champion, talk to the teachers, do not be afraid. Show them all the examples you have just shown us.<br /><br />Much love,<br />YoliYolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068063513978782703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-88840670662791615302010-06-30T05:50:14.437+08:002010-06-30T05:50:14.437+08:00J'ai été confrontée au même problème avec Cami...J'ai été confrontée au même problème avec Camille, qui était une enfant surdouée mais incomprise. Très vite elle a été rejetée du système, et au collège les professeurs ne la voulaient plus dans leur cours parce qu'elle posait toujours trop de questions...<br />Avec mon expérience je pense qu'il faut faire confiance au système dans lequel évolue l'enfant, même s'il n'est pas parfait. Voir le côté positif des choses, et l'habituer à se conformer aux ordres. En lui disant qu'à la maison on peut penser autrement et être créatif mais qu'en ce moment ce n'est pas ce qu'on nous demande.<br />Iza est encore très jeune pour se poser autant de questions.<br />Ses dons elle les aura toujours parce que tu es vigilante.Evelynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09568296524077802427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-7868788398683480382010-06-30T04:49:05.975+08:002010-06-30T04:49:05.975+08:00I think Iza is so special and gifted, she thinks l...I think Iza is so special and gifted, she thinks like Leonardo da Vinci:) Alliot, if I were you, I would not care so much about the School system in Hongkong, and not so much about the teachers、 impression and comments to her. You understand her better and you will learn to know which is the better way to let her grow strongly. Maybe there has an education system to this kind of gifted children, 也许你应该研究一下怎么让她的天赋发扬光大而不是觉得很struggle, 在面对普通人的教育体制和教育者面前。<br />大不了等她高中毕业送她到国外去读书,我不觉得Iza对付普通的学校课程会有什么问题。很多事情不可强求,每朵花都会以她自己的方式美丽地盛开。<br />最后,非常同意,you are an amazing mother:)Fei Anhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01605719252886968235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-65332410082855657482010-06-30T02:43:28.619+08:002010-06-30T02:43:28.619+08:00Oh!

One can feel it in your words.<br />Iza is such a lovely and gifted child. Let her be that way and encourage her. Yet I agree that it does not mean being without a certain structure. <br />Thank you again.Kenzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03735498316576611409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843935540628839857.post-47208820199399614702010-06-29T22:16:05.610+08:002010-06-29T22:16:05.610+08:00alliot, you are a wonderful mum, a wonderful mum w...alliot, you are a wonderful mum, a wonderful mum writes such a special letter.

I used to be a teacher and was so disappointed by this sometimes narrowminded environment that I quit and started designing clothes, my first passion. I'm sure Iza will have a great life and will do what she wants because she's a great child and the artistic gifts she has are so precious!!Justinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539917532343961134noreply@blogger.com
