Speaking exercise

I have an example for my mother and daughter. One year ago, my daughter peed on her pants, she find a different reason. She said “Why I peed on my pants, because my grandmother don’t tell me to go to toilet, so I peed on my pants, it’s not my mistake.” Another reason she always use is ” I am young, I don’t know”. Maybe she watched iPad everyday, some cartoon can teach some very smart reasons. I don’t know how to deal with her when she grows up. On this September, she will go to kindergarten. All the kindergarten will enroll students on April. So next month, we will register some kindergartens for her. It’s not decided now, because we have different opinion to choose kindergarten. The private kindergarten is very very expensive, also it’s far away from my home, not convenient for my parents to send her back. For public kindergarten, it’s just near my home, very convenient, the price is very cheap.  My wife thinks in the private kindergarten, the teacher will teach more knowledge and skill than the public kindergarten. If you choose the public kindergarten, you will spend another time to learn some things such as English, piano, at weekends. It will be very tired for parents to send/ take kids back.

Revised

I have an story that happened between my mother and my daughter. One year ago, my daughter peed/urinated on her pants, she found a different excuse. She said “the reason why I peed on my pants is because my grandmother didn’t tell me to go to the toilet, so I peed on my pants, it’s not on me.” Another excuse she always uses is ” I am young, I don’t know”. Maybe she watched iPad everyday, some cartoons will teach some very smart excuses. I don’t know how to deal with her when she grows up. In this September, she will go to kindergarten. All the kindergartens will enroll/open registration for students in April. So next month, we will register some kindergartens for her. We haven’t decided yet, because we have different opinions for choosing kindergartens. The private kindergarten is very very expensive, also it’s far away from my home, it’s inconvenient for my parents to pick her up from school. There is a public kindergarten just near my home, it’s very convenient, the price is very cheap.  My wife thinks that in the private kindergarten, the teacher will teach more knowledge and skills than the public kindergarten. If you choose the public kindergarten, you will spend more time on weekends to learn some things such as English, piano, at weekends. It will be very tiring for parents to drive around.Â
