mama baru dapat surat dari SMH utk mengikuti làmh course. kelas malam once a week for 2 months. mama agak keberatan sebenarnya nk join this class, although initially mama yg rajin2 p request for it.
Làmh tu maksudnya tangan in Irish (sebutannya mcm 'loff' gitu) adalah sign language yg specific utk early learning disabilities dekat ireland. most of the signs are based from ISL (Irish Sign Language) tapi a bit more simple.
mama memanglah nak belajar sikit2 sign language supaya boleh berkomunikasi dgn Z. tapi x de lah sampai nk pegi kelas for 2 months tu.. tu dah macam intensif signing class dah tu.. actually mama memang suka ajer pegi kelas tu.. banyak yg boleh dipelajari, bukan saja on the topic, tapi on other common things jugak.. cuma mama rasa mcm penat and takut tak berbaloi jer.. kalau sibuk pegi belajar tapi at the same time, x sempat nk practise dgn Z, ape gunanya kan? especially nk tinggalkan Z malam2 tu.. mmg lah seminggu sekali jer, tapi kalau dh ada kelas mama nk kena balik keja awal sikit.. bila balik awal, mama kena lah pulak ganti esoknya (dan lusanya).. dah jadik 2 malam mama x dapat bermesra dgn Z. seriously mama selalu jer sedih bila balik rumah tgk Z dah tido.. :(
lgpun, mama ada baca few articles, most of parent advised supaya focus more on communication itself rather than signing! sebab once diorang dh comfortable with sign language, diorang akan malas untuk bercakap secara vocal. nk communicate dgn org yg tahu sign language tu ok lah, tapi mcm mana plak nk communicate with the world? so, sebab tu lah mama agak keberatan nk focus on sign language nih....
alasan lainnya, april and may memang mama busy giler with work. seriously rasa mcm x sanggup nk kejar2 pegi kelas nih.. haih.. pastu june plak nak balik msia (insyaAllah), dah rugi 2 mgu di situ.. kalau diorang buat kelas ni 2-3 bulan lagi, mama rasa ok sikit kot.. takde lah terkejar2 macam sekarang.. tapi apahal pulak org tu nk buat kelas ikut mama punya timetable kan.. ramai lagi parent lain nk join the course..
but at the same time, it could be very useful utk encourage Z to communicate.. sigh...!
