Having your own kids require lots of commitment. In busy and fast paced Singapore, worklife-balance is a challenge. Few of us has the luxury of staying at home to take care of our children ourselves. As much as I hate it, my kids would watch VCD (mind you, the eldest is only 2 years old!) most of the time they are with our maid. It’s the easiest way to keep them occupied so that our maid can do her household chores.
Guess what did my son uttered when he woked up at 2am this morning? “I want to watch TV!” Can you imagine the harm to their little eyes to be staring at the TV everyday? How are our children NOT going to be myopic?
So whenever I am home, I will quickly finish my dinner and bring them out for a stroll. Although we feel so exhausted, and just wish to sit down for a nice cool-down drink, I kept reminding myself what is important. I don’t want them to spoil their eyesight, and I want to introduce him to many new things in life. Bring them out for a nice stroll, out of the “boxy” flat, and allow their eyes finally to see something beyond the four walls of the flat for that day.
But then again, I do enjoy and look forward to the evening stroll everyday.
