It's very practicle to have duo income as we can plan better for the future.if that is the decision then there will be more sacrifices to be made by both party.Quality time is also better than quantity.

So..what happends to their children while their parents are away at work, and after when their parents are back after a tiring day. how possible is it for mums to be vigilant of their kids when they are too tired after work? Not only vigilant but also to nurture and educate their children?
0votes 9/02/2007 8:10:20 AM by thingi freshIt's true that Singapore women are very stressed out but that is the decission that both husband and wife made for the better future of the family.This means that they will have a better financial stability and thus they do not have to acquire fanancial assistant.
Do you think that if the wife is at home the family will be better off?Will the children be well taken off?We have read about the school drop-outs and high numbers of drug addicts.The most important aspect of children up-bringing is to spent the most quality time and undertsanding them as the chidren of today needs our listening ears and guidance.
I've seen some of my neighbours that are full time housewife but are having about 4 to 7 kids and finding it very difficult to take care of the kids.The kids are running around everywhere without supervision and these kids are under the financial assistance from the school.So where is the quality?
The woman of today have to face many challenges and they need the help of their spouses to fulfill their goal of having a happy family.
why is it only that the mothers are the ones who shld carry the sole responsibility of the care of the children?! what are the roles of the father then? both partners shld carry the same responsibility over the kids, unless u're a single parent. even so, u still have to share the responsibility. i grew up in a family where both my parents are full time workers and it is possible. the secret is to have shared responsiblity.
