Showster Twincharged May 6, 2016 Share May 6, 2016 Yah sometimes also feel they quite kelian. The closest man to them they cannot touch. And if they are working in a happy family here surely they will think of their own family or building a family? People also will be lonely right? They also most likely cannot tell us all their problems too. Anyway hope bro @Achtung has it worked out well. of coz my wife did not show me the bidio lahhh! anyway, that was so long ago in the past and the kids still had good impression of her and in her cares. let me tell you more present ones . . . my house was doing renovations for >6mths ended early last year during renovations, I used to help send some of the workers to nearest MRT if I was there late last year, I saw the same Banglah near my house's bus-stop on a Sunday..... he recognised me and offer to buy me kopi (wow!) of coz I paid lahhhhh..........so I questioned him what the hell he was doing here he then showed me his bidio ,,,,,,,,,,,wow! erotic sex with maids in nice houses (my neighbours) . . . then I gathered to know whose maids belong to which house from the decors etc..... the blangah even told me those maids called him . . . . when madam & sir travel and house empty..... phew, luckily we stopped having FDW...... this would have been in Jason's TIKO thread if not I lost the bidios from Whatapps icloud for not properly backup after switching to 6S Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also know is cannot control one. Better to know and keep reminding her to take precautions than to restrict her and she still do it behind your back anyway. At the same time easier to track what she is doing when she goes out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donut Supercharged May 6, 2016 Share May 6, 2016 The most ideal family setup is father brings the food to table, and mother as full time homemaker. This was how it was in the past and it's the best way for kids' upbringing. Nowadays many couple are double income and depending on maids to look after kids. Even depending on grandparents is not good because the level of interaction and pace, quality of learning is not good enough for kids. What most grandparents do is to switch on TV for kids to watch because they are too old to play, run, jump, walk or teach the kids anything. its a grave mistake if couple has the thinking that both have jobs, buy a nice expensive home and depend on maid or grandparents to look after kids. Which also means the couple are forced to have jobs to pay for expenses. One cannot afford to stop working. Everyone wants to chase that "Singapore Dream", whatever that means. Its better if the couple is more modest, get a normal home with single income affordability. And the mother can afford to stay at home. No financial stress and everyone is happier. 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year, I hired stay home mum for a part time position. Both husband & wife are lawyers. She gave up her career to take care of her 1st kids. This is very rare in Sg (at least to me) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is very rare in Sg (at least to me) Mothers' instinct and love is very strong. Once a woman has kids, she will stop everything to give the best care to the kid, if she has a choice. In your example, I'm sure they can jolly afford to do it. Hubby already a lawyer. The income level is high enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like the kids is not close to the mother Since I quit my job 1.5 mths ago, my wife told me that i don't have to find another job for the rest of 2016 sadly but true. Its a sad situation that mothers have to work to pay off housing and other expenses. They either throw the kids to the full day childcare that costs ridiculous amount of $1000-$1200 per month or throw them to the maid. So end up, kids not close to parents. They see the childcare teachers and maids more than own parents. Our latest gadgets are not helping either. Often I see in eating outlets, a family with kids, all sit down and start to take out smartphones or tablets and stare at the screens. ZERO communication within the family!!!! And they can literally stare at screen, food come, they eat silently, and still stare at screens until eat finished. What kind of family is this?

Icebrush79 4th Gear May 6, 2016 Share May 6, 2016 This practice is "recommended" by the agencies themselves. It is because if the maids come here and work for a week, then they go "missing", who will pay for their loans? Definitely not the agencies. It will be the employers! Only after they have "repay" their loans, then they will get their off days. There's an insurance that you can take to cover expenses incurred when the FDW runs away before repaying the loan. To keep them working without off days for 8 mths is pure torture, its akin to being incarcerated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever baby bonus schemes or whatsoever is a weak attempt to encourage people to have families. Even companies, well, you have childcare leave but look how your appraisal will turn out if you constantly choose family over your work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
