My SIL also have 3 kids. Now and then asking my MIL to go over to their house on weekdays night to help her out with the kids - P1, K1 and another 3 years old. Luckily for me I hardly see them, only 1 family so far will appear at my in-law's place. Coz' when she is around with her 3 kids, I guess my MIL attention will be with her kids. They scared that my son will be jealous and no close to them (MIL) since she didn't even carry or takecare of him. Last time hubby wants my MIL to takecare of my son, but then my SIL objected for her selfish reasons. I am ok if my MIL does not wants to help us, for if the grandson not close to her, not my problem right? hehe...U know 3 years have past and until now I have never seen my SIL's youngest child since born! I dun think the kid even know he still got an uncle, auntie and cousin.
kaitlynangelica,
When kid grows up, we have more time to go tak tor with our darling lor. Take a break before they get married and settle down. I think with housing cost so high, our kid and their family most likely to stuck with us. Hence if having a few more kids and resulted in a few families staying under 1 roof bound to have more troubles.
Flowermonaster,
How old is ur kid? My son only attend piano lesson that's all. Already i am tired to send him for piano lesson on Saturday.
Told my dd that we must all stay together when she gets married. -

Sorry did I miss out his swimming lesson? He is having private tuition & cost $320 for 4 sessions. Piano -$190, violin -$80, swimming $220 (individual coaching as he is afraid of water, will switch to group when he is ready to save cost). Total cost per month - 810.Flower Monster,

Rare meh? :? Nowadays, it's not rare anymore. If its rare, why our goverment keep asking us to have more children? Even incentives cant bring up birth rate much. :evil:I got it again today?

More than 40% in my DS's class are only child. May be the old lady not very well informed. -
kaitlynangelica:
U never heard of the saying, when u have a DD next time u will have another \"son\". But having a DS, next time u will be lonely as DS will follow the wife to where she wants to stay.

You mean you don't meet your SIL and her family during family occasions like Christmas and CNY?

Ya never so far, coz' different timing mah. I think my MIL is in a diffcult position to take care of 2 family's kids fairly. Hence, I think she told her daughter so. So far the 2 family never appear at the same place same time one. My MIL is also very secretive about how they are doing..never share anything about my SIL's family and her kids to us. Only when we are not at their place then maybe my SIL's family come back home.
On the other side of the coin, my son is also not close to his cousins as they do not even have chance to play together. Only know their names that's all....not even looks. So my son is closer to my nephew on my parent's side and the neighbours' kids.
