      thumbsUp for ladyBird.

      Me, I get restless after a few days :stupid:

      So the better parent (read Patient, Passionate and not Who-earn-less) should stay-home šŸ˜›

      Maybe the next TV8 drama Penguin-Daddy might provide more inspiration Daddies? *hopefully not Chen Hanwei version :lol:

          About time this topic is discussed . . yes :goodpost:


          I wud luv to be SAHD. I have worked out the whole itinerary for it:

          Wake up have my breakfast together with family. Then send kids to school and drop wife to work (since she's a high flyer, she goes to work at 9.30am).

          Then, go for a 9-hole golf game with buddies. Then pick the kids up and have lunch at the club. Maid feed them lunch, and I continue with my buddies. Then go for a quick swim with the kids and showers taken care of. Send them home for afternoon nap, and I doze off too (of course, after 2 hours under the sun).

          Wake up, send the kids to enrichment classes and I'll meet up with some brothers for coffee. Maybe go to car show rooms, or happy hours :celebrate:

          Pick them up from enrichment classes, and pick wifey up as well (since she's a highflyer, she leaves work maybe 5pm). Go for a stroll at the parks, have dinner, and packed them home, ready for bed! They sleep by 9pm, and the rest is history :celebrate:

          Sounds alright . . . . or am I getting flame
          :siam:
          How come your afternoon seems so long, can do so many things ?

            Then, you have to make sure that your buddies also become SAHDs too. :lol:

              the only good part is i can have beer for breakfast...other than that it's pretty much the same level of busyness as working outside....maybe more šŸ˜ž

                Can't help it....the image of the beer commercial where several buddies screaming at a whole walk-in closet full of beers comes to mind... :lol:

                    My hb is going to be a SAHD for 2 weeks when my maid is going on home leave. I wonder how he'll cope.


                    He used to do all the housework before we got our maid, but he's starting to get lazy. Worst part is, he does not know my boy's schedule or how to cook his food! I think end up my mum will come over to help cos my mum is skeptical over my hb being a temporary SAHD.

                    I know I'm not cut out to be a SAHM, so my hb has graciously offered to take leave to look after my boy while I work šŸ™‚
