Daddy Bluefish reporting : Hello to every1
-
RRMummy, thank you for your encouragement but the fear of no income keep haunting me and my morale keep dropping as days pass-by.
Recently my wife saw a Fengshui master and he told her that if we have a 2nd child, it will be a boy and most probably he will not be a filial son. After hearing this, my wife has decided not to persue a 2nd child anymore. I think is a good thing cos’ looking at our situation, we don’t have the capability and capacity to have another child. There is no point insisting to have a 2nd one just bcos we worry the elder son will be lonely. Must keep within our means… -
I over-heard 2 guys talking (very loudly beside me) in the mrt the other day. one mentioned that he was studying to become trainer for NTUC. Course sponsored by NTUC. but the job is on 6mths contract basis… maybe you can call up and chk out if it fits your liking…
don’t give up. take it that know giving you a time to take a break and spend some extra time with your boy. hang in there!
good luck!! -
Thanks RRMummy for your encouragement. I hope to see my sunshine soon. The feeling of without income is very painful especially now I have to cut most of my spending.

I can understand the emotional stress that you may be facing.
when i just got married, my husband is still in-between jobs (his degree relates to desk-bound job, but he dislike doing desk-bound job, i asked him why he took it then, he said 'it's easier to study' :roll:). it helps that we were staying with his parents as it cut down a lot on the expenses. his morale was very low at that time. but the upside is that he spent a lot of time with my ds1 (and of course relief my load to concentrate on my career). then after some few months, he got 2 job offers.
just keep searching, a suitable job for you may just come out of nowhere.

Currently we are staying put at my in-laws home and the good thing is we don’t need to worry about housing loan. But at the end of the day, we still need to have our own shelter. As I am jobless now, my new role is being a homemaker now so that my wife can fully focus on her career.

Hi bluefish, tough times don’t last but tough people do. Keep your spirits up, and things will start picking up even before you notice it
all the best! -
Hiya Bluefish, you hv got mail..... sent you a PM.

Hi bluefish, its nothing wrong for a husband to be housemaker. When I see daddy very close with kids, I find it a blessing for the family. Jia you !

Appreciate for your encouragement. I don’t mind to be a housemaker provided I am financially stable and I want to give my son the best. But now I am jobless, somehow I feel that I have let my wife and son down. For example, I can’t buy his favourite toy and initially I want to put him to Montessori but now plan has to be changed.
Nevertheless, everyday I am telling myself to stay strong and I should be very lucky to have a lovely wife and son. -
Bluefish, you can get some montessori books from the library and teach him yourself. I have one and there are many fun activitites that parent can teach and play with the kids. :celebrate:
