smartmummy,

You can certainly buy dishwahers in Singapore! We have one, but it's totally underused because we don't have enough dishes to wash.

oh really! how much is it? How many dishes need to wash at a time?

I remember seeing dishwasher in courts ... Price range fr 800++ to 1800++(if I remember correctly)

But dishwasher required a water inlet n outlet to install just like washing machine , so it’s better to decide when u renovating your kitchen if not will be a bit troublesome.

Agreed! My dh is keen on a dishwasher so that he doesn't need to wash any more dishes. But water inlet and outlet problem. Also where to place the dishwasher? The only viable place we can think of is on top of washing machine. But my current washing machine is top loading. So need to change washing machine to front loading, settle inlet/ outlet issue, big project le. Kiv till current washing machine spoilt :evil:

no I don't,I avoid fighting so I always separate them.Sometimes if they fought I asked what happend?But I can't give any conclusion who is right or wrong.so i just hug my little one cos most of the time she cried and my elder son said she did something wrong thats why I beated her.So I scold him You cannot beat her, next time tell to mummy.But next time same happen.What can I do.So just keep quite.
My son has no patient or hot temper.My DD so friendly and soft.
Most of the time I don't want them to play together.My son only start and ask her to play with him,then I feel pity and allow them to play,5-10 mins play happily,then they have some misunderstanding then he beat her.I told him many times you cannot beat her call me.But this is continue in my house.

What is their Age Gap?

I'm Very Lucky .... My Eldest Boy Leaves his Sister Alone (When She's a teenie Baby) ....
And Gives in to her when she's in the Toddler's age ....
And in Pri Sch .... Very Protective and Takes Care of Her, even Bring her to join his Lower Sec Sch Frenz BD PArty and Outings ....
Even though they R 6 yrs apart in Age ....
:love: :love:

Yah, notice that the bigger the age gap, the siblings dun tend to squabble that much but on another hand, parents will have to start the cycle of taking care another child again.


As for mine, they r 2 yrs apart and when they squabble, i will not judge who is rite or wrong.. leave it to them to settle by themselves unless it gets out of hand *need to save my sanity :boogie: *

did you punish your ds for beating his sister?
he should not be allowed to get away with it and repeat this sort of act especially when he is already 9yo.

mho.

I was trapped in this kind of \"plight\" where my both dds r 6yrs apart. Imagine I need to start everything from scratch. Going thru relentlessly 2-3hrs feeding, taking care of the baby myself without any helper. No joke! However, with arrival of my dd2, really bring joy to my family especially my dd1. She really treated her mei mei as \"live\" baby doll....

My dd1 used to be alone n longing to hv sibling playing with her. This is why it changed my mindset initially to hv one only.
