      I always find it a bit odd that parents feel the need to restrict themselves from showing affection towards each other in front of their kids. I personally think it would be beneficial too for the kids to see parents being affectionate to each other. Not talking about pawing each other and r rated stuff but kissing, holding hands, snuggling and hugging, teasing each other, all these are fine right?


      My kids get tickled pink whenever we make a huge show of giving each other smacking kisses and being lovey dovey. It usually end up with them being caught up with snuggles and kisses from DH and myself as well. Of course when they reach their teens, they will be rolling their eyes at us, or not, since they would be use to it by then. But for now, they totally enjoy it.

      :hi5: agree totally. ๐Ÿ˜‰
      In fact, these days when we go out as a family, instead of coming between us, DS will make DH & myself hold hands.

      Nice! Kids love it when their parents get along, and hate it when they squabble.

        When I was in the delivery room, hubby was made to choose - wife or baby and I was made to choose - baby or me. That was one of the very few occasions my hubby wept. Strangely, I didnโ€™t. I told him, no matter what happen, our child must live. So wellโ€ฆ


        First forward to today, my choice is still the same.

          For daughters, we worry for them when they give birth.
          And for sons, we worry for them when they go NS.

              Wow! Didn't know you had to go through this. Luckily all ends well. I thought these days science is so advanced that labour seems almost prob free. Guess I was wrong.

                for me, i prep myself and decided for the above scenario. my DW. with my DW ard, we can then decide to have another one or not to.

                      Definitely agrees out the smile part. Ladies, you dun need a bombshell figure, a pleasant friendly attitude and taking a little care of appearances does wonders.
                      That plus a good hair cut (need not be expensive) and lipstick... and no grotty and holey t-shirts. Unless holey in the right places. haha ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        Couples would have entered another stage of marriage...past that tinkle-tinkle spicy newly-married romance. With present stage with school-going kids, I do deposit them at parents' place for a break from them.

                        Sometimes, I get hubby to apply leave to spend time together shopping...looking at our stuff. NO children dept.
                        Uh... and that includes NO going to Popular bookstore too!! ๐Ÿฆ† :siam:
