Just in case something bad really does happen to my MIL

I Know of 3 sisters who gave birth all boys. One with 1 child and the other 2 with 3 each. All dare not try for more! Haha

My friend is one of 3 boys. 

His brother has 3 boys. He has two boys. I would really be a betting man if I bet for a girl if he decides for a 3rd... Ha

But you also see less of them once they move out.

known of many guys who end up at the MIL place more often than their own parents place. 
 

The old cliche, ‘A son’s a son ‘til he takes a wife, but a daughter is a daughter all her life’.

Daughters are more filial usually. I used to work in geriatrics for a while in hospital or related department. The seniors always say... Must have a daughter... 

I think the statistic is that in Singapore, you are less likely to end up in a nursing home if u have just a single daughter. And i can't remember the number but its a very large difference.

I don't want kids I can't even take care of myself 😨

 

Ppl say a strong marriage is the foundation to a healthy environment for kids to grow up well and I'm a heartbreaker so cnt la

 

With that out of the way, life is fine, I console myself by spending most of my money on my car so I convince myself that I'm too broke to have a gf and no one would want me HAHAAHHA

Lucky indeed, I don't deserve this honour

And I'm a good boy, work from 10-6 and go home everyday, no extra curricular activities 😬

i also have a girl and a boy each.

we started late, but almost had an unplanned 3rd, but it was not to be.

In any case, we're happy with the two, and it was indeed tiring to take care of the two in our mid 30s. Luckily my mother helped to take care of the kids when they were young, before they were old enough to go to the childcare. This allowed us - especially my wife - to continue to focus on our work.

Logistically, we'd planned it such that we got a resale flat in the same block as my parents when we got married, so it was convenient for us all. We go to my parents' place for dinner everyday, and bring the kid (only one at any one time) to my mum before we go to work, and will bring the kid down after dinner, so that my mum could have a good rest. When the younger one came along, the elder one was just old enough to go to childcare, so it was not too taxing on my mother.

So my mother - who was very active and used to go around to many temples on her own - was grounded for about 4 years helping to look after the kids, before the younger one also went to childcare.

We moved when my younger one was going to Pri Sch, and got my parents to move in with us, so that they could continue to look after the kids when they come back from school.

If we had started the family earlier, we might consider having another one.

Ya, the grounding of parents is one big issue. I had to ferry them back and forth between the 2 set of grandparents(balance the load) prior to my kids turning 18mths before we had them in childcare. 
really appreciate them for doing it. 
the only 2 other alternative would be for the mother to stop working or infant care which still quite many out there are not so comfortable with. Not to mention that both these 2 alternative options is rather taxing on the family income.
