All About Life Without Maids

[mathsparks]

So you see, joy, seasoned parents like 2ppaamm and myself, will tell you dont get too anxious, take a deep breathe, go back home (since youlive near school right) and return later. Maybe arranged a fixed time as in, if I dont see you by this time, I’ll pick you up at 5pm…But do your work in the canteen and don’t skive.

2ppaamm:

Yep, I waited for 3 hours yesterday in the car for my daughter, didn't know the orientation timing... the other 3 kids starving in the car... I called everyone to help... even jie jie in school also blur blur, didn't know her sister has to stay back...

:faint: :stupid: :x

Joy:

hello mathsparks and 2ppaam


thanks for sharing....at least am not alone...

You know the precious time just wasted when we have got tons of things to do...I even rushed back after sending the younger one to school, just to make sure i get the housework done , so that I can have quality time with the kids later....and there she goes, makes me sit and do nothing in the car waiting aimelessly...is this part of parenting...as in testing my patience...

Yes, joy. Parents MUST be very PATIENT...lucky your house is nearby. But we always tell the kids, don't test our patience. :lol:

Yalor, I am really stupid... but I didn't get angry. I was just very worried that someone might have kidnapped her or something... Didn't know whether to stay or to go, the P1 kid was hungry.... But when I saw her... relief!!! :stupid:

Yes, must enjoy the process....but really frustrating esp when have to cope so many things at one goal, not just parenting ....

Hi Joy ! So you not getting any maid ?


I find that kids without maid at home, can be more independent and love the home more.

I stopped having maid when dd was 10 years old and the first question she asked me was \"So who is gg to pour water for me ?\" :x :shock: :idea: After hearing that, I was more determined to stop having a maid.

Now, we are getting used of not having one. Sometimes I would try to test her, how about getting a maid ? She said its so weird to have a stranger at home.
