  that would be fun.... as much as I was a disciplinarian when they were much younger, my methodology has changed because there is no need to discipline anymore. I encourage them to be free in expression of opinions but I also encourage them to be respectful.
  
  hugs and kisses to you too - apparently that is quite popular nowadays, I read it somewhere.
  
  actually, as an afterthought - how does smaplionheart write??? can't seem to remember.

  i don't like the increasing trend that parents hire maids to take of their children. what happened to the term "parenthood"? what do the "mother" and "father" do thruout the child's upbringing? just to earn $ for the child's food/clothes. who are the ones to instil moral values into the children?

  Singapore is a society where singaporean women work. Thus less time for the children. Lots of Singaporean women are too 'educated', too 'ambitious', too competitive. I guess the divorce rate must be rising...

  I agree with you. In the local context, care giving is probably the most difficult question to solve. There are probably only a few choices a couple can decide from:
  1. One party quit and become the caregiver - may not feasible because of the high standard of living.
  2. Nanny - good nannies are hard to find.
  3. Grannies - not many people have this option.
  4. Maids - To me, the worst of these options, but families will use this maid as cook, cleaner, car cleaning service, sometimes private tutor.
  
  So for practical reasons, option 4 is the most logical - for some families.
  
  I am glad that I have option 3, plus my family spent lots of time doing stuff together, so as a a family unit, we are very very close.

  Ok, the 1st few I saw were fine, but when you post it in every thread, I'm getting irritated.
  
  Is there anyway to ban this poster?
