💯💯 both have same ingredients so there shouldn't be difference in effects. Only price

Yes...just buy generic but if want to make pharmacy rich, buy branded

I used to take some branded products, but I've switched to just generic brands like Guardian's Omega-3 1000mg capsules. Since I take it everyday, I don't see any difference between branded and generic brands. Just the size of the tablet is important since I only take 1 a day.

Branded = $$
Generic = $

Haha kidding aside, i think both work the same so just go for generic that cost less $

I think this is how parenting should be. We, as parents, should stop putting pressure on our kids academically. We should understand that kids have their own talents and should stop comparing their kids to other kids. Kids learn at a pace commensurate with their abilities and WE, PARENTS, SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT! If your kids is struggling to write/read, try to understand the reason why so you can come up with a solution on how to help your kid. You can't always blame it on the teacher lol

Not really bashing or what but if you were already aware that your child was not feeling her best (regardless if she still wants to go to class or not), have you tried finding out the reason why? There could be an underlying problem as to why she's feeling that way. I understand that maybe she is really happy at school (my child also goes to MFS btw, such an awesome school) so you didn't bother asking but maybe, try chatting with her about it? Who knows, it could help you both bring out her best potential.

It's also sad how some parents push their children to continue their dreams/careerpath. Like...LET THEM CHOOSE AND LIVE THEIR OWN LIVES! We are only here to guide them and be supportive!

Very well said! I think as parents, we should try to teach at least the very very basics so we are aware of what our children need extra help with as well as which subject they might excel. My mom told me he taught me how to count first before i entered preschool which somehow made me advance from my cmates back then. I agree that we cannot always blame it on the teacher.

My kid also went to My First Skool and i'm proud to say that before sending him there, I taught him how to count and English alphabet. Some parents may think that \"eh you paying lots of $$$ to preschool they should teach that at least\" but i think by doing this, I am not doing the teacher a favor but me and my kid. Now, teachers compliment my kid and tell me that he is doing good at school which makes me happy. I no longer have to worry about advanced stuff coz teachers at MFS will be there to teach him well the things he didn't learn from me.


Would also like to add too that caning should be stopped and should not be used as punishment to children. Parents who resort to violence should be ashamed of themselves :mad:

He's still in P1? Does his dad override you?

He is really too young to become addicted to online games. Spending 3hrs a day on them is too much. Talk to your husband and set some ground rules together. Give him the device to play only for 1/2 hour when he has done all his homework, studied for his tests, etc. You need to check his work!

Yes, still in P1. I always ask his dad to get the phone before 3hrs but he doesn't give it easily. We only give him phone after he finish homework and stuff so I thought was fine at first but now, want to lessen hrs coz he demanding more and more hrs. Will try to talk to dad later and convince to talk with our child :gloomy:

Employers can make use of this Caregiver Training Grant to upgrade the skills/knowledge of their helpers.
Afterall, we including the helpers shld embrace lifelong learning.

Agree but would u recommend that to part-time helpers too? Or only to full time ones?

starlight1968sg\" post_id=\"2120379\" time=\"1696844421\" user_id=\"14025:

Any mum send their helpers for training using the Caregiver Training Grant ($200 per FY)?
What are the course your helper have attended?
Thank you.

Haven't tried myself but I know some colleagues who did so. Can choose course depending on what u prefer helper to be trained on but personally, i would choose to hire a fulltime caregiver over someone who still needs training. It would cost more but can rest assured that she already knows what she's doing and can start asap.

anyone tried ginger/turmeric tea? can share if effective or not??
