SINGAPORE – Mr Alex Tham, 49, would sometimes cry in his car when his son Joshua was in Primary 6.
“The teacher called me every day, saying: ‘Mr Tham, Joshua did this, Joshua did that,’” he says of the time when his son regularly misbehaved in school, pulling pranks and skipping school instead of preparing for the PSLE.
