Yes I will. Thanks for sharing and the encouragement. I am touched.

Ha… ok! We all strive to be Superdads!

Thanks once again. I have last minute unexpected financial commitments at the moment and can’t take up any lessons for my son. I will try teach him for myself and will post here again should I require any therapist or help. Thanks a lot! You guys are great!

Thanks everyone for the positive comments. I will persist on my quest to teach my son well.

I was divorced since mid 2008. My ex-wife insisted on taking the daughter although I told her to leave both children under my care so she can have whatever fun she wanted to have. We have joint custody but different care and control for each child.


I know it's painful to let my son know the fact that he comes from a broken family. But I have to eventually when he grows up. Last time kept thinking why this situation had to happen when I just wanted to have a loving family. I did not do any wrong to anyone.

I have to let the teacher in the nursery know that I am a divorcee which I had overlooked. Life is harsh now but I have to grit my teeth and move on with my life. I have to admit that I don't enjoy parenting nor do I have any experience in doing so. Now, the ball is in my court. Either I serve it back correctly to the opposite side or I could just simply hit it outside the court. I can't be irresponsible to my son's future. I choose to slowly serve and guide the ball back correctly to the opposite with accuracy.

I know the road ahead is tough. I must always tell myself I can do it for the sake of my son and a better future. That's why I call myself a 'SUPERDAD WANNABE' !

Hi kitty2 - Pm you already…

Am a single dad for my 4 yr old boy. Got a 3 yr old girl who is with my ex-wife. Am also striving very hard to perform both roles of being a father and a mother. Luckily my parents are the main care-givers.


Need the extra ‘punch’ and motivational needs to carry out my duties. I am always at a loss to perform both roles. Lack of enthusiasm and energy. Sigh… At times, will feel sad that my boy and girl comes from a broken family.

I know that I need to provide the best for my boy who is currently in nursery and going for K1 next year. He can’t speak fluently yet and I had arranged and attended with him many sessions of speech-therapy trainings in KKH. Curently, I had engaged a tutor (home-based) to teach him writings and activity exercises like puzzles, blocks, etc…

Wondering if any kind people out here would recommend a home-based speech tutor (not too experienced, money no enough) like say $20 an hour type?

Hi all, glad to have found this forum and hope to discuss and share loads of parenting issues with you all!
