Why EM books are so freaking expensive? Can anyone donate old books?

My son studies in STD 3 Edexel, last year the school he is in charged around 16k for only books. The books they supplied seemed like copy not original. Yet they charged so much. So the question is, it it normal?

If anyone willing to donate their old books plese respond. I will pay the shipping cost.

Thank you!

Helping 9 year old Develop Reading Skills

My 9 year old child is having difficulty answering some comprehension questions, especially when the answer is not stated directly in the text. Rather than giving him the answer, we would like to help him learn how to find clues, think independently, and develop stronger reading comprehension skills.

Could you please suggest any strategies, questions, or classroom approaches that we can use at home to scaffold his thinking and help him become a more confident reader?

Things i tried,

Can you please try to locate the scentances where the answer might be?

He will be able to find direct questions but not those which need the whole picture or his thoghts about the story or topic.

Why do you think the subject did not do this?

Things I have not tried, WH question on each scentance. I got the idea from one you tube video.

Appreciate it!

Note: I am worried that during my education I used to feel very dumb in comparison to all of my friends, (i still am). I felt that i never got proper reading skills.

Note 2: With AI it is our worry.

One of My Lowest Moments as a Bangladeshi

My wife and I were stuck nearly We were in a big city 200 kilometers away from home due to serious pregnancy complications.

So we contacted only one brother we had known through a family friend. One day befor I requested him that we might need some help in emergency. On the day of delivery, When the hospital refused to let our young son stay during delivery, we had no choice but to asked to him to come quickly. I clearly explained the situation and asked for his help. He assured me he would come.

I called him twice, waiting each time. My wife was already in severe pain. The delivery was getting closer. Our eleder son was still with us. Those 30–40 minutes felt like forever as doctors and nurse reptedly inform that we dont have time.

With no other option, the delivery began hospital miracally made an exception for us Both Father and my elder, allowed our son to stay in the war room with (12 nurse and 2 doctors). I was holding my wife with one arm as she pushed through unbearable pain — no epidural (anestesia). With my other hand, I held our son, sometime his eyes, repeatedly with muted shoyting to my son, to look other way. I was scared that he might get anxious, seeing his mom and my wife in such pain. The baby was on the way but i was not sure. felt completely helpless. The baby came around 7:00 pm and we were on a different situation as docors moved baby to NICU quickly and my wife to another cabin for recovery. Meanwhile, around 8:30, our beloved finally messaged saying he was on his way. I replied to him “Please no need to come, we have already moved to another building”

What hurt the most was the embarrassment in front of people from other nationalities. In our most desperate hour, a fellow Bangladeshi did not show up. We often believe “our own people” will stand by us in crises abroad — that belief was badly shaken that day.

I try not to judge him too harshly. It was right at the first day of Ramadan. Maybe he was exhausted or dealing with his own issues. Still, a simple honest message — “Brother, I can’t come” — would have saved us so much stress and uncertainty.

The biggest lesson came from the contrast: people from other nationalities were ready to rushed to the hospital with just ten minutes’ notice on a different occession. Just nne call was enough.

That day taught me a hard truth:

Never depend on someone just because they share your nationality. Chill.

National identity can create a false sense of security, but it doesn’t guarantee reliability, responsibility, or humanity.

Note: We didn’t want to involve the whole Bangladeshi community. As the situation was very fast and we wanted privacy. emotionally exhausted, and desperate to keep our situation private.

Note: The person involved comes from highly educated family.
