Daddy

Can get maids to do the SH*T work n parents clock the 40 hours???

Cannot lah. Ah gong ah ma also cannot, not say maid. Some schools only allow one parent to clock for the child, others allow both parents to do so.

Or parent go n sign attendance... then sit there just \"eye power\"... supervise the maid... direct traffic... cut grass...

NO, NO NO. It’s mentioned that either parent can do the PV, no maid,

ah gong or ah ma. This is the one time Singaporeans have to roll up their sleeves to do the dirty work.

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: so true.. dunno where our society moving even something to do for our kids also ask maid to do :stupid:

Oh dear, we are relying too much on the maid. I've heard of a someone who pays the maid a high salary but that maid is like a mother to the kids - cooking, cleaning, attending parent-teacher meeting and all aspects of child's homework. Er...just wondering who is the mother in this case ?

PV is not dirty work, even for toilet cleaning

even when washing the school toilets, you would be thinking, wow, got to scrub it super clean for my kid to use it ..... :rotflmao:

got to make it squeaky clean and sparkle .... (background jingle of \"mama lemon!\")

Well... the parent(s) just need to do the dirty work for 40-80 hours... the rest of time is done by the maids... feed the kid... tie shoelaces... carry bags... etc...

Just out of curiosity, do schools really ask PVs to wash toilets? Surely not? I washed toilets when I was in primary school (don't know if this happened in all primary schools but it did in mine) and now I have to wash toilets to get my kids in primary school! :slapshead:
