When I was in F7, I was the only one who didn't take leaves for AL exam after school mock exam. I regarded it was my duty to go to school. However, all of my classmates regarded it was useless to stay at school because school teachers won't be able to help much. They preferred to study at home. I was the only one to go to school for a few days and my teachers felt troublesome to "handle" me. Just put me into another form only. :( I can't forget those days.... :(
but it was for studies but not holiday.. should be difference? :)
can we try to think clearly? now we are discussing about postexam travel. if the school hv no objection or considerate for 樓主, it is totally not a wrong thing to do.
Please do not simply force people to believe your belief which sounds not logical at all:
postexam travel=school cannot accept ever
postexam travel=violate sch policy
postexam travel=irresponsible
postexam travel=must telling lies
postexam travel=bad role model for children
postexam travel=wrong and should be quilty
All of the above are not necessary equal, try not to set up rules first, try to communicate with schools and think further for the meanings of education.

I respect your points of view. BK is a platform for discussing and expressing one's own thoughts. You can argue with someone but you can't force others to believe something. However, do you intend to force someone to believe your belief that sounds illogical? Hopefully you do not!
If you think going on a trip after the post-exam period is a good idea, just do it as you have your own choice. You know every one can have the freedom to choose what he/she wants to do.
To me, I do think parents set a bad model for kids if they escape from their school work for a trip. Even the so-called 'high management' of school allows parents to do, I don't think it is still a good idea to do so.
I just thought of the meaning of education. I think it is more than intellectual training as I think 'Whole Person' development is important as well.
I just want to express my opinion only. Again, I respect your opinion though I won't do the same.
For sure I respect the choices of others, so that I will not say you are wrong if you do not go to travel with your child.
The key point is you will not judge others easily although they do something different from you. Please do not say you respect others if you judge others as a bad model of their children.
It is easily to become a judge of morality online without responsibility. If we say we should be a whole person with integrity, this is the very first thing to do. Do not judge without knowing the unique situations of others.
Respect is we can share different opinions with judgement. In addition, the reasonings of the judgement are so weak. I respect your choice and I don\'t even bother how you choose, but try to have a true respect to others without judgements.
it's meaningless to overgeneral the whole picture of the hong kong schools. you hv your experience, i hv mine.
please read clearly i try to share my viewpoint on respect, i.e. listen without judgement.
i think it is quite difficult to dicuss if we mix up the concepts.
