          Hi,

          I’m a FTWM and i hated it.
          I feel i could have done more for my children if i could have stayed at home. Now my kids’ weekends are packed with classes bcos i cannot sent them for classes on weekdays.

          My kids are 6, 4 and 1.5 yr.

                  Come on, everybody, be happy & face it!! :celebrate: I am one who cannot be SAHM for long long time, hence i choose to be FTWM. At the same time, i am not the one who bochap to my 2 DS, and DH πŸ˜› I do want time to be with them...... :love: I am not earning high pay; take home pay is like sufficient to cover the kids child care & student care,the lower premium insurance,my daily expenses for lunch & transport.......there is no much left. All i earn is CPF which use to deduct monthly instalment, barely hitting the amount to be deducted monthly😒 If i choose not to work, then how? Everyday trouble for money not enough and screaming on top of my voice for my 2 DS?? πŸ˜› .........unless i can be tai tai πŸ˜› which is not possible cos DH not earning high pay too..... So stop dreaming and face it!! :celebrate:

                      Not to mention the reason why we work bcos we are kiasu mummies who need to send our kids for extra lessons. Sourcing for properties near good schools and indulge in their favourite japanese food.

                      Sometimes i do take a step back and wonder if my kids wld have prefer me to stay at home and spend more time with them and give up all their little luxuries. Wld they be better off if i’m the one who guide and teach them at home than to send them to all these classes.
                      But i come to realise that is not at all possible bcos i have no patience and i will most probably scream my whole block down everyday.
                      Sigh… okie… back to work.
