      Jia you! It is never easy to be a parent.

      I wonder if my mum worried that much when my siblings were young.
      Her method was very simple; canning when she saw red marks in the report card. Hence getting my report card was the worse event in each year when I was in pri sch. And I only realised the urgency to study after the exam 🙂

      When I got to sec sch, somehow i realised the importance of results and from then, i didnt have to let my mum worried a bit on my studies. She always said among her 3 kids, i was the best in studying 🙂

      Hence my conclusion: inner motivation is the most important. Find out how to ignite your princesses' inner motivation and the rest will be automatic.

          MKS,

          Looks like with oversupply, hopefully M’sia govt lift on ban of fresh chicken & might be cheaper. Indonesia alr putting aside available land for chicken resting in Batam & we can look fwd to fresh chicken once they can achieve high std of fresh chicken export to SG.

                  Looks like it. It’s good that our govt hv good diplomatic relations with President Jojo. Also attribute to our strong economic standing. Imagine Indo approving land for rearing fresh chicken in Indo & they’ll set up stds that meet our req’mts in Batam. So near.

                  Yes. Think we shld hv the best of both worlds - lower chicken prices & fresh birds fr either M or I.

                    Kids are complaining our new place is inconvenient.

                    To a certain degree, it is compared to Toh Yi. But we didn’t have a choice since hubby got retrenched and his OA was running dry. Flat was also old and would cost a lot to renovate.
                    Moving would be a big headache since resale flats are expensive. Anyway, they will get married and move out one fine day.

                        No, bcos NUS is near home which is why he didn’t want to go to NTU.
                        My place is inconvenient as there is a need to take a bus to either EW line or Downtown line. So they are both complaining.
