@shavkat/

you are such a good grandson to your grandmother.

If everyone is as filial as you, there won’t be any squabbles.

My sister in laws and  brother in laws who are biological children of my MIL, are always fighting over her because of…[Read more]

Yesterday, I had to accompany Bryan, my grade 8 student in the morning to attend the launching program for Oplan Balik Eskwela, that is, an activity for back to school. The school principal did some reporting about the school’s accomplished projects, the rules and regulations should every student to abide with, and the parents’ responsibility to…[Read more]

@peachpurple  Where  did you you see that cute little boy? I have hundreds of photos of myself and that cute little boy in different locations of the world!

@shavkat/

wow! what is the secret recipe for your grandmother old age?

She is 98!

That is good news.

Yes, I pray so that she will live long enough to see your children, don’t you?

Old folks are happy when all family members young and old come together to have a simple dinner or chit chat at home.

That is what old folks wanted, they hated…[Read more]

Glad that you had enjoyed your trip.

At least you had seen snow, I haven’t !

@swalia/

Normally, married children had to stay with hubby, not own parents…[Read more]

my MIL stays 45minutes away from us.

She is staying with my brother in law who is single. Yes, he has a car, so he visits other siblings often.

Nope, they don’t visit us often because MIL always kept pestering him to go back home after 1 hour of visit.

I don’t know why.

My parents stays 15 minutes away from me.

They don’t visit us…[Read more]

I have taught my kids to use a sharp knife and my daughter who is 10 helps me a lot in the kitchen. She loves to cut vegetables for dinner or to cut any food at all. I have been slowly teaching her to cook and there are some things she can cook on her own. I always tell her to be careful when using a sharp knife and have taught her the proper way…[Read more]

Yes, we do teach our children on how to use knife properly to avoid cutting their hands accidentally. Safety measures in any undertakings they do should be strictly observed. We also teach them on how to take care of the knife to render its maximum service and where to place it after using it. We teach them how to handle knife when cutting…[Read more]

Honestly, that is one of my main concern as I have a nephew. I need to orient him before using the real knife. I will let him use it until he fully understand, but as much as possible, I don’t want younger ones holding a knife. It makes me scared. I guess a video tutorial on how to teach kids to use the knife properly is a must for me and for my nephew.

@kaka135/

honestly, my son who is 9 years old have not held on a real kitchen knife yet.

Butter or bread knife , the smaller type , yes, he used them to cut cakes, kuih, pancakes, etc on his own.

It wasn’t easy to teach him to hold a butter knife because he doesn’t have the patience when the food doesn’t cut through.

he would let go of the…[Read more]

I’m a helping kind of person as well, but there are certain things that another person can’t help some one with.  Some times people make excuses for NOT doing some thing as well.  They really can do it, but they might use the “I’m too old” or “I can’t do this” when in actuality they can do it!!

That depends on each one, that one cannot comment on what we want to do as long as the child matter how we grow.

But I do not think a date palm at the right time can influence child correct growth, if we can think that one day we would not if we let all listen more in his will.

I accept myself as someone hitting a child, nor let him climb into…[Read more]

Yeah, well how not here to say super close to my mother, I love maximum and she on me, especially when we pass from one to the other states.

Always know what happens to us two, it is super, especially when you go shopping, it is hard cool when I see that she wants to be just like me.

I do not see it as a mother, I see it as a friend or more than…[Read more]

Yes I agree with this, because if I think about in the end we are humans and we need great understanding.

Still not have to exaggerate with helpful partner, ie the years pass and pretending not to work at all can sit at home doing nothing all his life.

But if we have a business or earn a living will learn to do so to help my partner so much as I could.

Most people always keep asking the impossible, but never about whether or not we can achieve.

I never said that I will not turn to help people or that I’m not help but I will never try to exaggerate, it seems a bit absurd to do that.

Although if you I am thinking better, some if they will stretch a hand on all or more than that, it counts when…[Read more]

I do not think you can change some people and I sincerely family people who did not even greet us basically most want to see their interest, nothing else.

It’s pretty ugly to see how your own close relatives behind your back, especially when nothing stands in their way when they enjoy your trouble.

I know you’re going through because nothing is…[Read more]
