My eldest son under the influence of friends learn to indulge in branded stuff. I refuse to pay for him. He won’t talk to me. Go to church he would never sit with family. Goin to shopping centre he won’t go those that his friends will hang out. Recently my youngest son told me his gorgor brought girlfriend home. I am very worried. Talked to him and he said nothing wrong. Am I overreact?


My hubby whenever he is angry will speed when driving. Now I feel frightened whenever I am travelling in a car. Am I sick?

My stress is accumulative since I married 17 years ago. Mil prob, relationship with my hubby, work stress, then maid prob and now children. Mentally tired. I will be strong for the sake of children. Thank you.

I am working full time. have 3 children. Sec 4 son, sec 1 daughter and P2 son. I really feel very stress handling them. My relationship with them is failing. Hubby blame me for not taking care of them properly. I am depressed. Feel like jumping down.

Hi 33mama,


Actually my maid really anyhow do things for me. She is very stubborn. Never do things right even after 2 years. She will say forget everytime when I question her. Changing maid is very hassle plus my husband don’t support me so I tolerated her nonsense. This time she told me she is going back to get married so I take the opportunity to find new helper. Again, she ask me any meals inclusive when she fly budget airlines!

Hi dasalo, my bread machine is not working! I stop baking for quite a while. Perhaps electrical is like that. I do the dough manually and bake in my small oven as buns. Yes texture like my bread. Not sure is too water, oil or milk powder? My recipes are:


Water 1+1/8 cup
Milk powder 2 +1/2 tbsp
Oil 2+1/2 tbsp
Brown sugar 3 tbsp
Salt 1 pinch
All purpose flour 3 cups
Instant yeast 1+1/4 tsp

Thanks in advance.

Thanks to all for your advice.

My maid from Myanmar. She said renew here taxes are lower although passport fee are higher.

Another issue from my maid. She wants to make new passport before going home. However, I have already bought her airticket. Can she still make new passport before departure?

Cancel the workpermit within 7 days before the day she leaves. Because start from the day workpermit is cancelled, your maid is allowed to stay in Singapore for only 7 days.

Anyone add extra baggage weight when buying maid’s airticket home after their contract? Maid said her friend have 20 kg for budget airlines.
