10 years of education to survive in a education system that only encourages rote memorization and conformity without questioning. 2 years of NS to set us back in our career. 30 years of working in a environment that protects foreigners that allow them to get into cushy jobs without protection for Singaporeans.

After all, how many Singaporean parents can afford to have a maid to look after their kids on top of sending them to childcare? That in itself will cost a bomb. And who can afford to drive their kids around while they go for meeting after meeting, and can still find time to drive home during lunch time?

Minister for Manpower and Second Minister for Home Affairs Josephine Teo has urged young Singaporean couples to start having kids and start families earlier in life. She also said that Government will not interfere in Singaporeans lives, but went ahead on dishing out advice for young couples.

Our reader alerted us to a mother whose children avoided injuries from a car accident because she took the time and effort to buckle them up properly. It's thanks to the child seats that her kids are safe!

An angry mother complained about a childcare at Sengkang/Buangkok that overcharge parents for kids' meals, excursions and everything else! The childcare claimed the $22 meal was because it was an "international buffet". What, a buffet consisting of nuggets, fishballs, chicken wings and beehoon?

The reason that I did not stop them is I don't feel the need to 'hide'. Wouldn't it make them feel more curious to know about mummy's body or maybe other girl's body in the future if I keep hiding from them. I tot maybe if they see it frequently, it will become 'nothing' in their eyes so their mind will not get too excited or curious about women's body when they grow up. I don't want my sons to grow up being to curious about sex and want them to treat it as a normal part of themselves.

I'm married for 7 yrs, w 2 kids, 5 and 3 yrs old. B4 people told me that I'm loving towards my husband but I didn't feel so. I feel though we were together for many yrs , we don't really understand each other and seldom talked. Things changed when i begin to fall in love w a lesbian. She is really sweet and gd w the kids. the first day we become bf n gf, we had intimate contact. we r together for almost 10 mths. nw i don't talk to my husband at all. many times we (lesbian & I) want to break, i just refuse. i know im wrong but my heart loves my gf. My gf wants me to legally divorce my husband nw or she wants to break up w me.

I am in an inter-racial marriage. I'm a Muslim while my wife is a Chinese free-thinker. We've known each other for more than half a lifetime and married for 12 years. Since we got married, she has never stepped foot into my parents' home and she has disallowed me to bring our 2 kids (10 and 2) to see my parents. Even know she knows that she is being unreasonable, my wife once said that she doesn't like my family to the extent that she doesn't want to be associated with them. She admits that maybe she is afraid that our kids will become Muslim.

We had her for a year, tolerating and being kind to her cos we pity her and shes young we dont want to fire her and she be in debt. But we found her watching hundreds of pornography on my 5 year old kids Ipad. We counselled her but she decided to quit all of sudden without notice probably out of embarrassment. We went back to agency for advise only to have the agency telling us off that it is our mistake for counselling the maid for watching porn on my toddler Ipad. The staff said we should have just "let her be". After that the agency can even have the cheek to tell my friend she told us off for highlighting the watching porn issue to my maid. Utterly disrespectful. Other good agencies would have been more helpful since the maid addicting to porn is taking care of toddler. Who knoes what she can do to the child when we are not at home.

My husband cheated on me with his PRC mistress and now he even abandon me and our 3 young kids to run away to China and enjoy himself with that vixen! He can spend so much money on his mistress to go on holidays with her to Thailand, Malaysia and Hong Kong but when I ask him for some money to help pay for our children's medical bills, he is so calculative and keep asking me for black and white receipt as proof. He even want the baby bonus money to be transferred into him before he will use it for our children's medicine and injection. I really regret marrying him and I want to warn all ladies out there to choose your husbands wisely so you will not suffer the same fate as me.
