These parents are so hypocritical... "I dont put pressure on my kids' but the whole video literally shows a helpless kid who has a jam packed schedule with parents reprimanding him for 'bad' grades.
How is he going to improve his studies if his schedule is jam packed. Going to bed at 1 am is not ideal for a young kid who has to go to school the next day.
80 is low wtf I'm damn happy with a pass all jokes aside this boy has more drive than I will ever have. I do hope is parents pay more attention to him.

ikr he is stuck in this mental state of mind imagine if he goes out to the workplace damn his mind would be messed up he wouldnt know whats right or wrong
To be honest i feel like even though his dad and mom says oh is just him being high achieving and putting the pressure on himself. But i feel lk at 1:36 when the kid have to reach out for his father cautiously and that the father tone "what again?" kinda make me feel sad for him. Maybe why he always dont feel like he is good enough, cause he is not receiving the acknowledgement from his mom and dad. That's why he's questioning himself and never felt that he's good enough.
My dad used to get a tad bit upset when I got a B. He never yelled or anything but I knew he was disappointed and that alone scared me so much that I learned how to forge his signature at a really young age.
@shubh saxena he's literally nine years old, I don't think he should just leave school at that she as he has a lot more stuff to learn and soon instead of paperwork being filled by parents, he will be the adult soon
What typical Asian parents say oh I'm not putting pressure on my kids, in actual fact: you are the one causing pressure Or even indireact pressure point proven from 1:36-2:00
But the kid said that "I thought the test was yesterday, etc" which perhaps indicated that indeed this is due to his miscalculation or unprepared state, and the father just wanted to tell him that "you should be more prepared, next time". It might be a pressure, but is it bad?
2000 dollars a month on lessons and 50 marks. To a certain extent, I understand, but the child isn't engaged in his studies and maybe it has something to do with his tight schedule.
Because it really was unacceptable, his father knows that he can score better and he only scored 50 because he didn’t prepare. But is it the parents’ fault too, he’s so young and they, as his parents, should be helping him manage his time better and not just supporting him.
You look at this, of course 50 isn't that good. And here his parents are supplying him with things he wants, so I'm sure they have a hidden mindset to "you wanted this, work hard for it"
The parents should be more worried about his health then about his grades and acting. It is good that he likes acting and all that but he still needs time for a rest. He should have a proper schedule.
I won't call this childhood. I'd rather have my kid flunk than have him depressed at this age. The parents say they are cool, no pressure but it's obvious they are crushing the kid.
@@auser7087 he did but I have seen kids saying they love things which they don't only to make the parent(s) happy. I dont mean that is what's happening here. But a lot of kids be like "i want to become this and that" only for the parents' sake.
Good enough = Putting your 100% effort, even though you may not emerge as the best among your peers. I think the kid needs more encouragement so he doesn't feel so stressed up. While grades are important, they are not everything. Childhood is short, let the children have a good one and avoid putting so much pressure on them. It's sad to know that children nowadays have very hectic schedules. Before they know it, their childhood would be over :(
This kid is motivated,, i really hope his parents don't weigh him down so much with their expectations for him. All the best kid, grades aren't everything- he has a bright future ahead of him!!
yes. grades aren't all. The expectations is for Keane to not disappoint himself. I experience the same. I get easily disappointed cause I didn't reach my own goal that i set for myself. btw, Im his sister :)
Dawn Yap oh wow lol. A lot of the comments are saying that the parents are putting too much pressure on him and stuff, and he says he’s works till 1 am, was he exaggerating on that lol?
Poor boy... He feels left out in the class that mostly are smart and only him... Ahhh! I want to hug him and play together with him. He needs his childhood 😢
Yeah yeah you aren't putting pressure on your kid. But why you're spouting this: 1:53 "No, this is not acceptable Keane." Says the father 🙃 2:01 And on top of that, how could you, parents, let this kid works until 1 am? 💀🔫
I mean, 2000 dollars on lessons and 50 marks in return. He has a tight schedule, yes, but keep in mind that he asked for tuition. This basically means the he contributed to the tight schedule. He said that he got 80 at 2:15 I'm just saying, if he gets a 50 afterwards, that means that his grades slipped. Maybe that's why the father is angry. He's used to his child doing well.
I have been to a couple filmshoots before. Unfortunately, they have no choice but to only film at late hours so that noise and light pollution would be minimum. If Keana really does want to pursue the media industry he is going to have to get used to working up till 5am. That's just how it is.
I feel sorry for this kid. I think it is the parents' ideals to be in the limelight - 'living the dream' through the kid. Making their ideals become his ideals - if that makes any sense? Hence, the feeling of inadequacy is there. And you can't have it both ways - you can't expect the kid to do well, yet have him do filming till 1am in the morning - ON TOP of having a packed schedule of tuition, enrichment classes, creative lessons, etc. So really, where is the time to study? And some kids take more time with education (trust me, I can empathise with such kids). My take is, even as an adult, if you have to go thru this regime on a daily basis, even YOU will break down at some point. So what more a child, who is still in developmental stages in terms of physical, emotional and mental... Sorry lah, I don't agree with all these. End of the day, you want a happy child and WE adults, especially parents, need to learn to accept a happy child as he/she is. Not as what we had envisioned would make a child happy - that's an unrealistic expectation and unnecessary burden of responsibility on a child.
@A Google User omg that literally happened to a kid in my tuition, he told the teacher “I got 99 on my exam and my mom was super angry lo.” I once failed a math test and my mom got pissed at everybody :p that’s Asian parents for you
you don't even have to learn mitochondria, factoring trinomials, mastering long divisions, reciting the periodic table, etc. to pursue an acting career
bcus most ASIAN country is a poor country so all the parents telling their children that knowledge is very important..that's why every children was pressured and they feel its not enough at the end you want to please your parents too....I've been there done that..😪😥
@@yvricz1410 Not true. First of all there is a lot of poor place in Asian countries which you don't visit. When you go to China, you visit Beijing Shanghai and all the nice nice cities but never visit the horribly poor area. Same goes for Philippines Indonesia and Thailand.
The parents seem to be the ones giving him the stress. How do they expect the kid to juggle so many commitments? Training the kid to be somebody. Just let him enjoy his childhood.
Poor boy is doing his best and isn't being lazy. Even asking for extra lesson every Saturday, studying on his own accord. The parents have to reduce his schedule for his grades to be optimal. It's so unrealistic wanting him to succeed in school when he doesn't even have time to rest let alone to study
Let the kid just be kid!!! Knowledge doesn't come with the grades and before enroll the kid in extracurricular classes ask them what kind of subject they want to learn; maybe the parent want piano and the kid prefer guitar.
Just want to give this little boy a hug and tell him he did great and he is amazing for keeping up with everything If i was in his shoes i would have thrown tantrums They are lucky to have a kid like him And hope he doesnt miss out his childhood
? "To nuture his ambition, his mum spends at least $2,000 a month on lessons." So, in this video, the child said that he wants to be a celebrity at 0:29. His parents agreed to this and funded his lessons. So to a certain extent, he wanted this. This has led to him not doing as well as he planned due to the stress he experienced through filming. Keep in mind, he wanted to be a celebrity, so he needs to learn through lessons in order to be a celebrity. So, due to this catastrophe, he said that he asked for tuition. He said this, at 2:18. You're right, they don't know how to be a parent. They shouldn't have put him through that, but keep in mind, to a certain extent, he wanted this.
This kid should have the child hood he deserves for all the hard work he is doing. His parents should be proud of him and helping him if he struggles, not telling him his effort isn't good enough. Because the worse feeling in the world for any child is knowing your parents aren't proud of you or are supporting you
How is he supposed to do well in school when he has such busy day ?!?! Tuition,Dance,sing and acting classes no wonder the child is unable to do his homework his schedule is full he doesn't have any time to do his homework or relax.
Instead of telling him it’s ok to fail, just say as Long as you try your best, any score is ok. I understand the parents wants to support him in everyway, but help him manage his time and include relaxation time too. He’s maturing way too fast for his age
I, having a mentally ill mother passing away from cancer and an absent father. I see the father is a little tough and a mom who pushes everything to have him well guided. Is something I wish I had.
He is more hardworking than me at that age, seriously, he really has a lot to do, at such a young age. The teaches should also be more understanding of his situation, give more guidance.
Get him out of school, do you think bubbling a test is going to make him be a celebrity? like bruh, the school system has not changed in more than a century, there basically force-feeding kids with useless facts, and then they throw it up in the test.
Unfortunately, even if you are a famous celebrity, in a country like Singapore, the masses will still judge you by your academic achievements. The education system differs across countries, and just because the education system is bad in one doesn't mean that it's bad in others. At his age (primary school) is where he learns the basics, such as sentence structures and grammar (English), life cycles (biology) and simple algaebric manipulation (math). Saying that he should be taken out of school at that age is akin to allowing him to have less general knowledge than all of his peers who would have gone through at least the primary education system, leaving him at an obvious disadvantage already. By the way, the primary education system happens to be mandatory in that country. So if he's pulled out without special admission from the government, his parents are liable for a penalty for breaking the law. Before making a sweeping statement and criticising all schools for being "useless", just remember that not everyone has experienced the same as what you've experienced, and that people in different countries have different opinions on education. And if, by any chance, you're from the same country as the kid, then all I can say is that you and him have very different ideas of success. Even with all that pressure, he still opts for voluntary tuition instead of sitting back and just complaining about how bad the education system is. IMO, he should be supported but not overly pressured, which would depend heavily on his parents' (especially his father's) attitude towards him in encouraging him to work towards his dream, while not being overbearing. Only this way can he both pursue his dream and stay relatively stress free. Feel free to rebuke my statement with your own constructive criticism
If u get out of school, there will still be exams. If u fail, they will get u back to school and btw he wanted this. He choice this. Every child should have to study. It is important. I used to think studying was useless but soon enough, i figured out that it was actualy helpful.
one of my friend told me that when he got a score less than 90/100, he gets beaten up. he said one night he heard his brother getting beaten up before going to bed.
What people don't understand is that in countries where poverty is so prevalent such as Singapore, sometimes this is the only way to ensure that your child can make a living for themselves. They can't afford to 'take a break.'
Kids are supposed to have fun. It's every kid's right to have fun, to play, and just simply enjoy their childhood. I feel bad for that kid going through hardships at such a young age.
To be honest I think it's so much to do in his schedule that is affecting the result in school, he has no opportunity to let his mind breathe. Having that breathing time is very helpful, and helps the development in knowledge.
idk why the parents want to pressure him into being academically gifted, bright, or something i mean its obvious his gifted and mastered at other areas and its already enough i mean he’s already talented 😅
Why that’s what happen when you make the child that is an actor even more stress , this child going through a lot right now and his parents are using him like a toy juts to make money out of him and then he’s gonna end up have ruff life and then end up becoming depressed and that happens to kids like him , god may protect him
After watching this video i just feel sorry for the boy , mainly because his parents is giving him to much pressure and schedule .. On a side note grades does not define who you are because its just a piece of paper in the end and its unless once you start working
I live in Singapore. Same as him. For my standard. I have to get a band 1 or else I'll be left out in my class. 80 isn't low for me. 80 is high but to my class standard it's low. A a* 91 and above is all we dream of.
this breaks my heart so much yes i can see he enjoys all the practices for piano singing dancing and all but the parents pressure is not allowing him to enjoy anything he barely has time to do shoots and youre telling him to do homework and also expect him to wake up at 6 and pay full attention to class obviously he canr do that hes too fucking tired
Poor child. It’s great for him to have a dream in singing, dancing, and acting, but staying up till 1am and being pressured my his parents to do good in school is not healthy,

He's young and He stressed alot it can cause death for him
Plz don’t mention death
" when you score a 100 you learn nothing, but when you score 50 you have a lot to learn"...Wisdom !!!!
Not really. 100 means you already learned. 50 yes you have a lot to learn because you didn't.
It is a great saying but you can legit see the dad getting angry...
Someone tell the parents that mental health is something that actually exist!!!!! It's as important as your physical health!!!!!
Poor kid his dad doesn't seem to love him what so ever he only has expectations
I'm real proud for him, I didn't get much time to learn as well. But this kid is a good kid, and I hope he isn't stressing out too much
I actually sensed that fear when he showed his parents his test 💀💀
Just want to give this little boy a hug and tell him he did great and he is amazing for keeping up with everything
If i was in his shoes i would have thrown tantrums
They are lucky to have a kid like him
And hope he doesnt miss out his childhood
Wah these parents don’t know how to be a parent. Jesus u don’t overwork a child like that. I’m 16 and I’m Glad I don’t have to experience this
? "To nuture his ambition, his mum spends at least $2,000 a month on lessons." So, in this video, the child said that he wants to be a celebrity at 0:29. His parents agreed to this and funded his lessons. So to a certain extent, he wanted this. This has led to him not doing as well as he planned due to the stress he experienced through filming. Keep in mind, he wanted to be a celebrity, so he needs to learn through lessons in order to be a celebrity. So, due to this catastrophe, he said that he asked for tuition. He said this, at 2:18. You're right, they don't know how to be a parent. They shouldn't have put him through that, but keep in mind, to a certain extent, he wanted this.
@@Enthusiast230 well you're not wrong.. he did indeed ask to be a celebrity
i know that the parents agree but atleast shouldn't the parents tell the consequences and doing all this at the same time might not a good idea?
@@Luxstar13 it's not in the video as this is literally years ago when he first told them he wanted to be an child star
@@Jerbt I mean't doing full time acting job while doing school.
This kid should have the child hood he deserves for all the hard work he is doing. His parents should be proud of him and helping him if he struggles, not telling him his effort isn't good enough. Because the worse feeling in the world for any child is knowing your parents aren't proud of you or are supporting you
How is he supposed to do well in school when he has such busy day ?!?!
Tuition,Dance,sing and acting classes no wonder the child is unable to do his homework his schedule is full he doesn't have any time to do his homework or relax.
Instead of telling him it’s ok to fail, just say as Long as you try your best, any score is ok. I understand the parents wants to support him in everyway, but help him manage his time and include relaxation time too. He’s maturing way too fast for his age
Your kid is amazing. Requesting for a tutor to improve himself and having a dream this early on.
Give the mom a round of applause for being very encouraging
dad : i actually think failures is good
also dad before : THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE !
I, having a mentally ill mother passing away from cancer and an absent father. I see the father is a little tough and a mom who pushes everything to have him well guided. Is something I wish I had.
This video called me helpless and useless in 10 alien languages.
I-
He is more hardworking than me at that age, seriously, he really has a lot to do, at such a young age. The teaches should also be more understanding of his situation, give more guidance.
Get him out of school, do you think bubbling a test is going to make him be a celebrity? like bruh, the school system has not changed in more than a century, there basically force-feeding kids with useless facts, and then they throw it up in the test.
Unfortunately, even if you are a famous celebrity, in a country like Singapore, the masses will still judge you by your academic achievements. The education system differs across countries, and just because the education system is bad in one doesn't mean that it's bad in others. At his age (primary school) is where he learns the basics, such as sentence structures and grammar (English), life cycles (biology) and simple algaebric manipulation (math). Saying that he should be taken out of school at that age is akin to allowing him to have less general knowledge than all of his peers who would have gone through at least the primary education system, leaving him at an obvious disadvantage already. By the way, the primary education system happens to be mandatory in that country. So if he's pulled out without special admission from the government, his parents are liable for a penalty for breaking the law.
Before making a sweeping statement and criticising all schools for being "useless", just remember that not everyone has experienced the same as what you've experienced, and that people in different countries have different opinions on education. And if, by any chance, you're from the same country as the kid, then all I can say is that you and him have very different ideas of success. Even with all that pressure, he still opts for voluntary tuition instead of sitting back and just complaining about how bad the education system is.
IMO, he should be supported but not overly pressured, which would depend heavily on his parents' (especially his father's) attitude towards him in encouraging him to work towards his dream, while not being overbearing. Only this way can he both pursue his dream and stay relatively stress free.
Feel free to rebuke my statement with your own constructive criticism
@@contorgonflame452 man wrote an essay i can't
If u get out of school, there will still be exams. If u fail, they will get u back to school and btw he wanted this. He choice this. Every child should have to study. It is important. I used to think studying was useless but soon enough, i figured out that it was actualy helpful.
@@genshin_epic8038 Important for exams
Sometimes there are things were good at and things were bad. Nobody’s perfect
*Kid:80 is low*
*Me:?????*
80 is actually low if you think about it as it's a single point from getting a C
@@Jerbt which country are you in?
@@Jerbt for me 50 is a pass and 80 is an A
one of my friend told me that when he got a score less than 90/100, he gets beaten up. he said one night he heard his brother getting beaten up before going to bed.
he studies 30 minutes and 1 hour everyday me: i study for 1 min and countinue playing
What people don't understand is that in countries where poverty is so prevalent such as Singapore, sometimes this is the only way to ensure that your child can make a living for themselves. They can't afford to 'take a break.'
2:36 oh I pretty sure that because you never recognized his effort so he’s trying even harder for you to recognize it
these parents deserve a better life
3:23
When you study 15-30 mins and get good grades 👁👄👁
Kids are supposed to have fun. It's every kid's right to have fun, to play, and just simply enjoy their childhood. I feel bad for that kid going through hardships at such a young age.
"For me, 80 is low"
me : *YES I FINALLY GOT 60*
Woah I don't even understand why 60 is a pass lmao
Well to be fair for us its 75 passing grade on a report card but i get constant 90s
To be honest I think it's so much to do in his schedule that is affecting the result in school, he has no opportunity to let his mind breathe. Having that breathing time is very helpful, and helps the development in knowledge.
1:52 turn on subtitles
Bruh, this kid accomplished more than I ever will.
Imagine when he grow up and be like
Parents : when will you return home
Boy : sorry ma,im busy oh next year ah
i think might as well left them in elders house.
idk why the parents want to pressure him into being academically gifted, bright, or something i mean its obvious his gifted and mastered at other areas and its already enough i mean he’s already talented 😅
Plot twist:
he was just being an actor for this video he isn’t actually stressed?
He said he got an 80. He said it was low. I would be glad to get at least an 80 on anything in an AP class after studying for 3 hours straight.
0:38 he basically wants to be a kpop idol 😅😂
I guess you have so much respect for him, using laughing emojis
“Homework too long”
me in 7th grade having worksheets for homework and so much pages: ahahahhahhaha... NO.
????
Wait he from maris stella primary!? I from maris stella secondary lol
Why that’s what happen when you make the child that is an actor even more stress , this child going through a lot right now and his parents are using him like a toy juts to make money out of him and then he’s gonna end up have ruff life and then end up becoming depressed and that happens to kids like him , god may protect him
lady: wOo ! oPpA !!
me: HAHAHAHAHAHA
After watching this video i just feel sorry for the boy , mainly because his parents is giving him to much pressure and schedule .. On a side note grades does not define who you are because its just a piece of paper in the end and its unless once you start working
2:38 - yes of course.. im sure 🙄
They did very good on raising him 👏 Wish you all peace and happiness ☺️
He doesn't really need to go to school if he's already successful
But good for him for still wanting to try
this made me cry :(
He was dancing to BTS gogo y’all
1:07 yessssss, 💜💜💜💜💜
I live in Singapore. Same as him. For my standard. I have to get a band 1 or else I'll be left out in my class. 80 isn't low for me. 80 is high but to my class standard it's low. A a* 91 and above is all we dream of.
Oof? Oof? Oof.
this breaks my heart so much yes i can see he enjoys all the practices for piano singing dancing and all but the parents pressure is not allowing him to enjoy anything he barely has time to do shoots and youre telling him to do homework and also expect him to wake up at 6 and pay full attention to class obviously he canr do that hes too fucking tired
It’s so painful to watch this...
I feel so sad and pain for him
Poor child. It’s great for him to have a dream in singing, dancing, and acting, but staying up till 1am and being pressured my his parents to do good in school is not healthy,
People getting mad at the parents for stressing this kid out is so annoying. He literally says he wants to be a celebrity.
He is so dedicated
i wish parents would focus equally on both giving love and attention towards a child and their grades.
Man this kid has so many talents
