Pregnant Again?
Me? No lah.. where got so fast? I din put on much weight recently despite eating lotx of mooncake.. Haha~!
Well, i have heard news abt my cousins n hb's friends who r preggie. 1 has juz gave birth to a Gal. Congras to Peiling! Another cousin, Lindy is preggie for 4mths. Congras also!
Wat prompt me to write tis post is actually abt others couples who r becoming a 2nd time parents! I actually know of 2 couples whose wifes r preggie again! These couples have previously married becoz of shot-gun. They do not own a individual hse and is living off their parents' hse. I heard of conflicts from them with their in-laws.
1 couple wan to get a rented property fr HDB n got rejected. Till now, they have not even settle on their housing problem, n pop out another baby?
The other couples have unstable jobs, who i tink are relying on their parents to feed them n their kid, n still dare to pop another baby?
I understand govt is encourgaging more newborns... but govt is only helping u wif a small % of expenses. If u tink tt $3k is sufficient to support ur newborns till he grows up n work, den u r wrong! It's impt to have sufficient planning b4 u start to produce a baby. It involves money, time, a mature thinking parents and many others baa baa baa to bring up a baby. Y give birth to a baby, only to throw to ur parents to look after while u enjoy n play like a kid?
Eventually u will grow old one day when ur kids grow up, do u wan to be struck in the same scenario where ur kids go ard producing many off-springs n throwing them to u to take care, u have to support both ur kids n grandchildren in terms of money n time! U get to enjoy now.. but u will work urself to death wen u grow old! So start thinking! Grow up, kiddies! If u cant afford a hse, cant stand quarreling wif ur in-laws, cant find a stable job, den STOP producing babies for the sake of FUN!
