- 2017-12-12Dear Parents, do you have any recommendations on science enrichment classes for preschoolers?
- 2017-12-13RIP, little boy
- 2017-12-13Any good Chinese enrichment class for N1 (3years old ) to recommend ? I need to expose my LO to more Chinese print rich environment.
- 2017-12-14I am a sahm, my LO is 14 months. I find that he is going through the terrible 2 stage. I need advice for his actions..
1) He don't know how to talk yet but he will kick his leg whenever he wants something or angry. I will say firmly no to him and beat his leg one time when he kick me during diaper change.
2) When during bath time he don't sit and play with water or toys. He will stand up and wants to play with the water pipe. So being in a bath tub is impossible because he climb out of it and wants to stand on the floor.. something he sit on the floor for awhile and stand up again. He don't know how to walk yet and he is holding me while standing.not only that, he hate showering.. He dislike me using cloth to wipe his teeth he will cry like being torture and I put him in bed to wipe him down he will crawl away and run away... I am having a hard time bathing him.
3) He starts to cry waking up during sleep. I not sure is.it nightmare but he will cry for awhile and I have to sing to make him sleep. He used to sleep through the night, but now he can wake up cry once or twice.
4) He keep on screaming when he need something or screaming for fun..
I had talk to him whenever he do something not right and he just want to crawl away or smile .. When I hold him firmly and tell him he will cry....
Pls give me some advice.. thank you.. sorry for the long post..
- 2017-12-14Hi. Is it ok for 21 mths old toddler to consume Vitasoy soya bean (the small packets) about thrice a day. Toddler chose soya bean over Dutch Lady milk ?
- 2017-12-14What will u do if ur husband treats u different at home vs when with colleagues or family members? E.g. when it's just us, he's always rude to me, raising voice, silent treatment when he's unhappy with something. When we are with his colleagues or his family members, he treats me differently. Can joke, nice, not rude etc. sometimes I wìshed we are just friends/colleagues rather than spouses. I used to whine to him when I'm unhappy but he gets unhappy and shut me off. So I stopped sharing unhappy stuff anymore n kept inside me. now he's like this. I don't know what else can I do anymore. I'm at my end. there was once I casually shared that 'wow xx married for 10yrs and they did a ceremony to renew their marriage vows '. he gave a sarcastics sneer and laughed it off.
There was also once after he gave me silent treatment we had cold war. I initiated a talk by asking how was his department lunch buffet, he jus replied me in one word. was it nice?("normal") worth the price to go?("ok") who went (Cus I know all his colleagues as we r quite close too )("wah" followed by a frustrated sigh). I immediately told him "fine, then I won't talk anymore". and another cold war restarted.
Home is like a landmine. If we (including my 2 sons-3&1) step on his tail, made a small mistake (if any) or simply did someone thst made him unhappy, that's it. The whole family aura changes.
I'm so tired already. It's been going on n on n on. Whenever he made a mistake he doesn't apologise. Whenever I mentioned something that indirectly saying it's his fault (when indeed it is) he gets extremely defensive and his silent treatments, rudeness, bad temper all come out.kick bang the door etc. I'm always the first one who talks, who apologise when it's not even my fault. he verbal abuses my elder son too. shouting at the top of his lungs at him when he's naughty. nudged him very hard. criticised him as loser idiot. chase him out tell him get lost. when he's obedient he treats him nice. I'm so tired. I regret marrying him. If not for my children, I would have left. What should I do? sorry if I can't reply much because I choose to be anonymous as there are many people I know are on this group. Thanks.. appreciate your advice...thanks...

- 2017-12-15My lo is14mths but shes still not walking without suport. Should i be worried?
- 2017-12-16Did you have these signs? And did they come true?
- 2017-12-16Hi I was the anonymous who posted a long post previously.
First of all, really thankful of people who read...Right now he's behaving normally with the kids. Being all fun and sweet to them. But he ignored me. Doesn't want to talk to me...at all.. this morning I asked if he's feeling better. He ignored me. I said, I'm talking to u very nicely here. He replied "what?!". He literally treat me as transparent. Actually even on normal days when we didnt quarrel until like this, when only me n him go out for some couple time , he doesn't hold my hands anymore
Today, Sit down back face me. When I'm in kitchen, he came in saw me inside he got out.
I was very upset. I texted him saying what else does he want from me. If this goes on the marriage is over. I told him I will fix an appt and if he does not go means he give up on this marriage. He replied "then u go all u want. I am not going".
Actually all these quarreling been going on for quite awhile. like one month we can quarrel up to 3 or even 4 times. I'm getting tired and depressed.i have a history of depression and had already recovered and discharged few yrs back.. But after going thru all these epsiodes, I'm not confident to say I'm ok.
Sorry for the rant. And thank u once again for reading. I have no one else to turn to anymore. I'm at my end already.
