Also common leh tai Taos can be so busy with their lives the don't even hv time for kids. Sahm and ftwm all must remember our responsibility to our kids is a duty, not a favour don't you think?

A lot.. i thought now we have like 7 days of child care leaves for both parents which is like a lot right :?

Sorry don't even need child care leave, this was a weekend class but parents nowhere to be seen for prolonged periods according to the teacher, unless we assume parents do shiftwork, then it is possible but lower probability.

Yes, we know our responsibility. But we also can choose to outsource this responsibility. Like

Even organizations do not outsource their strategic functions. I agree responsibility cannot be outsourced but some tasks can.P

I guess parenting is all about spending quality time with our kids and teaching them right, doesn’t matter whether u r FTWM or SAHM.


I know a SAHM whose child spends half the time in sch and the other half attending tuitions and enrichment classes. She told me her kid is beyond her control and she just has to ‘send’ him out of the hse to keep herself sane. This is very sad cos the more she doesn’t spend time with him, teaching him, the more out of control he will be.

When I 1st knew this family the kid is just 5 yrs old and was already very spoilt and behaved like a brat, now he is already 9 and has total disrespect for his mum. I witnessed a couple of times when he shouted at his mum and was very very rude, almost treating his mum like a ma
