I dare not let ah boy takes over ironing his own uniforms, scared he either burnt the uniform or drop the iron, then it is my job to clear the mess caused.Nebbermind:
Ironed school uniform is a must for me...uniform just have to be proper
then mum or dad must continue to do the job till the kid think it is A MUST n take over the ironing themselves.
my ds ironed his own cca uniform at the eleventh hour ,coz he knows he need to look super smart for promotion interview !
the way i hang the clothes ,will try to make it less crease as much as possible - so to cut time on iron.
S ince my dh iron - i need to sayang my IRON man more :rahrah: ( cannot anyhow add on to ironload) - next yr upp sec , long pants ... :faint: -
dd2 could iron her uniforms on her own. it is me who over help her…that’s what my dh says. true la, i dont deny it. i have to let it go…

I don’t really care. But I think kids do somewhat prefer their uniforms being ironed. Ironing schedule is once a week. If missed that ironing schedule or somehow run out of ironed uniforms by mid week then just wear un-ironed ones lor, so long uniforms are clean and fresh. No biggie if not ironed.
Kids will only freak out if I asked them to dig out unwashed uniforms from laundry basket because I forgot to wash their PE shirt. Not often lah. This might happen once or twice a year. My bad -

Okay i am totally chicken mum when it comes to hot stuff - iron, boiling water etc. I have seen what they can do to tender young skin and my stomach just flip flop when i see them near these things. I guess i don't even totally trust myself handling all these things. Ds1 only started ironing when he is taller than me (but not often lah). -

Mrsks, iron is heavy lei - I cannot handle for long, tiring lei
But but, if I still have helper - I ask for ironed clothes , uniform n clean white sch shoes daily . -
DH ever put on wet uniform on DS when he was in Primary 4 :faint: I was overseas at that time. It didn't occur to DH to iron the uniform until it is dry :slapshead: Luckily DS didn't fall sick.
Anyway, DS is brainwashed to have his uniform ironed. He knows how to iron since sec 1. -
mp, i only used about 10mins or the most 15mins to iron dd1 uniforms for the week…in between preparing breakfast usually Mon morning. dd1 needs more than half an hour if do it herself .usually night time i always rush them to bed at 8+. so difficult to wait for her finished the job on sun night. next time must get her do it earlier.
