      I do try to bring my parents out to tour at least once a year, full expenses by me. My hb or bro wont join…but then it’s alright. I just want to be filial to them.


      My philosophy is to treasure the time with our parents, nothing lasts forever…there’s no need to be calculative especially towards our family.

          I agree too. If can afford, bring them for holidays. If not, even short trips to Malaysia is good. We must treasure the time we have with our parents.

            Spend time with your parents while you still can. Need not be holidays to faraway places, can even be a weekend at a chalet will be memories that you will treasure. Me and my siblings have been going for family trips with our parents for years and with each trip we cannot help but be reminded that there may not be many such trips left with them.


            We were supposed to for to Korea last week with my sisters and my parents. However, at the very last minute, my family is not able to make it so my sisters with their family and my parents went ahead. The reason for this sudden change? My FIL passed away suddenly, on the day that we were supposed to fly off.

            It has been a hectic week and we are just getting back to our normal routine. DH is feeling really down. He has many regrets and is feeling very guilty. He regretted not spending more time with FIL. He regretted not including them in our yearly holidays. He feels even worse when he was clearing out FIL’s stuff and saw that most of the photos of PIL’s holidays were with his Sis and there were none with us. All these are eating away at him now.

            I feel bad for DH and can only hope that with time, he will be able to let go of his guilt and going forward, make the effort to spend more time with his mother.

                depending on where we are going, we'll bring our parents.they normally prefer to go to nearby countries as the long journery is too much for them..

                at least,we'll get some private times if we choose to travel to further countries 🙂
