Psst..

Instilling Value Of Money Project still in the pits? :lol:

You know, that item STILL ranks as one of my top priorities ..... but since I'm making no headway, for now I'll just settle for the next best thing; which is to tell ds what are the professions that bring in the biggest dough. :laugh:

I've a story to share. I've bought ds more than a dozen of those beyblade toys; and today in my house less than half of them are still around. You know why? Because Mr. Generous (hey it's only dad's $$) decided to give most of them to his friends, after playing with them for a while. Then the next time we pass a toy shop, I'll get to hear, 'Dad, I don't have that beyblade, that one, that one' and the cycle repeats itself.

Sometimes I'm very angry with ds ...... but I just swallowed my temper. One day, I'll surely put my foot down. One day, one day ..... just he waits ..... gek-sim.

You really cannot say 'No' to your son huh?[/quote]same thoughts :hi5:

We should start an Obedient Children Club instead.


But my personal position is that a wife should obey, but not be subservient, to the husband. I won’t marry a man if I cannot accept his leadership or trust him to be able to make the correct decision and lead us as the head of the household. The husband should love and cherish his wife.

If a wife should obey, isn't it the same as being subservient? That is , taking all his orders, reasonable or unreasonable, without question, without argument. A husband should not be the only one making decision or leading the family. The wife plays an equally important role.
In my case, dh is very very busy at work, out-station most of the time, so I decide on all matters, I don't even ask him. He just needs to finance my decision.

Being obedient and submissive to the husband does not mean that the wife plays a less important role. Both the head and the neck are of equal importance but have different roles. Leadership is not just about decision making. There is nothing wrong for a wife to make certain decisions on her own, esp if it pertains to matters in which she has greater expertise. But the husband should be able to provide the general direction and leadership for the family. There is nothing subservient about accepting someone's leadership. I'm most inspired by the life of Queen Victoria, and how she submitted to her husband despite being the monarch reigning over the largest empire at the time. They had 1 of the happiest and most loving marriage of all times.

She gives the impression of being lead but she is actually leading. It is a form of art in action when she brings this to her relationship with her DH. She's a very nice person and wants the best for her family and stand by her friends. It's quite amazing to see her in action.

Macham this mummy very xiao qi liddat :slapshead:

Hi rosemummy, to be obedient and submissive simply mean to take orders from husband without question.

My mum is very obedient and submissive to her husband. And of course, her husband took advantage of that, went out to womanize since young, and he’s still doing it now, even though he’s in his seventies. The most cruel thing is he boasts to my mum about his numerous girlfriends, ordered my mum to iron his clothes as he’s going out with his girlfriends… So my mum, being so obedient, did what he ordered. Of cos, she cried and cried. And she’s still suffering now. An obedient and submissive wife only means she won’t dare to ask for a divorce, that’s it.
I grow up watching how my father bullied my mum, of cos, he treated his children equally badly. But my mum never dared to fight back. This is the result of being so obedient and submissive.
What about asking the husband to be obedient and submissive instead?
