Multiparenting Cayen & Cayson

After the initial brush with some bullying in the initial months, there’s no news in the past few months except exams.  Cayen had his first exams and results were quite low even for his usual best subjects like Maths. I think it ranges from 50+ (English) to 80+ (Chinese ironically).  Hence, since I don’t really know how to system works , I asked the teachers if there’s some median or average class grade.

And I noted that the chuckles sounded different so I think he’s trying to
