Just need an outlet to rant. As if mummy guilt is not enough, people have to add in comments about poor baby, have to go school for the whole day and no one to take care at home. so heart pain. But honestly, sending my baby to school also means learning a lot of other things like social skills etc. LO looks forward to school, misses school, and reaches for her educarers when she reaches school. She doesn't cry the roof down when she goes school n is happy there. What exactly is so poor thing about enjoying school and learning things from a young age? Both parents r working for a better future for the LO, not as though I'm a SAHM and still choose to send LO to school so that I can kiao ka at home? I know they may not mean it, but really wish they can be abit more sensitive when they say such things. Or if there's any hidden message, I'll so much rather they tell me what they want.. Sigh... ?

Hugs, mama! Those people are insensitive idiots for judging you for sending your kid to school. And it doesn't make sense to judge! Your choice to send kid to school, not theirs - and obviously you're seeing positive results out of it in your kid, so why stop sending her to school, right? Your best revenge toward those people is to post photos of how happy your kid is in school - and how happy you are that you get that break from being a hands-on mommy. There is definitely nothing wrong with wanting time for yourself because, duh, everybody needs time for themselves to rest, recuperate, maintain their sanity. Don't let the negative comments put you down.
