Hi Gingerbelle, where do you send you son to? $900 a mth with $300 subsidy sounds ok to me. Maybe i can go check out to see if it suits my gal, as i will be sending her next year to ease the burden of my caregivers. I'm staying around the ulu padang area.
my son does not like to read or self-study. His main purpose of going to school is to interact with his fellow classmates and play with them. When he comes back from school, its to play with his sister. The only time he can sit down and be quiet is when he wants to draw and color... <sigh> although he has simple spelling test every week, 4 3-letter words, he doesn't comprehend and register that it is to help him recognise words. So when I tried to write very simple sentence and ask him to read, he gives me a blank stare, even its words he has learnt from spelling before. He's not stupid, just very uninterested in learning academically...
now, i'm worried that my gal will be like that too. So, I'm putting her in full time child care next year. kill two birds with one stone!
Danryan, who is looking after your kids? I'm also thinking of ligation... compared to other types of prevention methods? did you go for malay massage after the birth of your gal? anyone that you can recommend?
