I don't mind other people scolding my kids when they're wrong, but somehow, I feel like I'm the only one who has the authority to smack or cane. Even when hubby smack them, I sometimes don't feel happy (but I let it be, as daddy has the right too)<br /><br />Maids aren't that bad... I've good experiences with them.... but then, I don't work 9-5, so I do get to be at home most time.Gina Yonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11171998360508918421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859525073956148820.post-37222613654229566662009-08-06T00:13:52.052+08:002009-08-06T00:13:52.052+08:00Kiasu Mom - Yes, I agree that children need to be ...Kiasu Mom - Yes, I agree that children need to be taught when they misbehave but I am not sure I agree that a third party should be doing it though. <br /><br />Sigh, it just hurts me too damn much! <br /><br />Bengbeng - Yes, I agree that overprotective can be counter productive, but I also think that it is my duty to be protective of my children. <br /><br />Therein lies the problem - how much of protective makes it overprotective? <br /><br />Parenting is not easy at all!Busy Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979232211220363913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859525073956148820.post-62983350816891672602009-08-05T19:17:12.917+08:002009-08-05T19:17:12.917+08:00i am sorry but i think u should let matters be.
