How do you train a child to work faster?
Dammit! It's so nerve-wrecking to see didi moving and doing things soooooo slowwwwwwwlyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Especially in the mornings when he prepares for school. It takes forever for him to get done. What, he just needs to pee, brush his teeth, get himself out from the pyjamas go into shower and get dressed! In that time he does all those "stints", I would have prepared breakfast, snacks, tie up meimei's hair into a bum and get changed myself!
I have tried coaxing him, encouraging him nicely, to yelling my head off at him and totally putting my hands up in surrender mode, but he still remains nonchalant and at his comfortable slow, steady, snail pace. Every other tasks too. Except snatching korkor's packet drink in his hand or a gadget with games apps.
I have already incorporated a "fine" system, where by certain time he doesn't appear in his school uniform, it would be RM1. Then, by 7.20am, he has to be at the door else another RM1. By the rate I"m counting, I have collected 5 bucks already. Ish! This little guy is making me crazy already!

He should pay kor n mei too for making them late. Then they will try all sorts of things to slow him down, like hiding his panty n bra...
Prob solved!
How about going off with him in an unready state or going off without him to let him learn his lesson?
If on a guided bus tour he dilly dally and did not return to the bus at the appointed time, the tour bus would leave without him and leave him stranded in a foreign country so he gotta learn to be on time. And you must teach him. ;p
