@peachpurple Please don’t think that Western kids are any different from Asian kids when it comes to discipline. I have seen lots of tantrums here from kids who were sent to the corner, and lots of parents giving into the kids because they were having a tantrum. We pull our hair out over unruly kids, just as much as you do!

The important thing to…[Read more]

I think a little spanking goes a long way in disciplining a child it will not hurt him in anyway but it will make him or her realize that mummy or daddy are just trying to teach me the right thing it’s not that they hate me or anything. but they will see that what they did was wrong and that is why they were punished. I can say nowadays more and…[Read more]

I seldom argue with my wife, with my children. But for the sake of educational debate, I am ready to confront anybody. When I was studying in the college, I used to witness a debate contest during our college cultural contest. And as I ambitioned to be a debater, I was chosen to be one of the members of the group in our department in the debate…[Read more]

Having a military husband requires a very strong wife to face the responsibility alone.You have to show all your love and care to your husband for his work is risky. His job is an honorable job for the sake of the country of his residence, plus during retirement, retirement money us big especially if an official in the military.

If I can no longer suffice, the accusation, that is the time that I have to exercise my right to express my opinion to defend myself especially is the argument is about debt, love, rivalry, bills at home, foods cooked, cleanliness and laziness.

wow well said I like the direction that you taken with this whole thing about arguments, many times people do not want to own up to their mistakes and that’s where the problem begins. when we say sorry we are usually taking the blame off our shoulders which is good. and I also like the part that you have said that we should always start our…[Read more]

Thanks it has been quite the year! I didn’t realize how hard it was going to be just glad I had a support system to help me through it all once this is done and I feel like since we have made it through this we can make it through anything.

You are indeed a great mommy and wife

Yes, you may have to get used…[Read more]

First of all, my thanks to your husband for his service and to your whole family for all the sacrifices you make while he is deployed.

My father served in the RCAF when I was very little, but luckily he was always right at home with us from the time he married my mother. Actually, my daughters have been away from us much more as young cadets than…[Read more]

I for one don’t think blood is thicker than water I have friends that are closer than family and would be there for me before my family would be. I don’t believe that just because your family your always going to be there for one another, hasn’t work out that way in my life, any one can become “family” I see people use the were family so we stick…[Read more]

I am the type of person who doesn’t yell unless extremely upset( takes a tremendous amount of disrespect and wrongfulness to get me there) I talk things out even when the other person is yelling I can remain calm and talk. I have never left an argument until it is handled because I feel like then it just gets left open and you argue more.

Hello everyone.  I am the type of person that does not like to argue.  Unfortunately you just cannot reason with some people.  I respect that everyone is different but when tempers flare it causes a variety of situations.  Whether it be with a spouse, boyfriend/girlfriend, family member, or just friends.  I read a news story about this woman who…[Read more]
