    Ages 4-11 [Primary] How can you prevent young children from listening to adult music?

    You can't necessarily stop them from listening. Children nowadays are very curious on everything that spikes their interest.

Sometimes, when I am lazy to scan for books to read, I just ask my friends for suggestions. Though in other days, I just lazily swipe through my library to discover books.

    Should students choose what they like to read in class?

    It is nice to have a variety and also to have choices. Personally, I think it is nice choose what you want to read but I also realize that we must venture out on our dislikes and try something new. We will never know if we like something or not if we don't try it out.
