good. always gotta reaffirm the 'im not playing/joking with you'.

they all like that. no matter what toys you wanna get... just get some safe toys for them as they will just put into their mouths. get some musical toys, normally they like that.

welcome to the terrible 2's.

my son like this... but now we've become more strict on him (especially me). like if he dont makan, will give him the death stare. and firmly tell him off... then he will say 'baba angry' and eat his food. now i just begin counting 1, 2, ... then he will stop whatever he was doing.

but sometimes doesnt work. and also need to remember, kids are kids. so dont always be strict. hehe.

yeah my wife also explodes at him a few times. but for some reason my son is more scared of me. maybe due to deeper voice...

now my wife gib up and if im home she wont yell any more.. she will just say 'baba is going to get angry' hahahah. i feel so innocent sometimes just lying down on the sofa and hear my name used in a threat hahahah.

wah that one a bit over lah hahahah. kids understand a lot. but maybe cannot connect naughty = no love. instead just think of it as 'no love'

my wife will just say something like 'if you dont eat, only mama and baba are going out to go play on the slide (or whatever your plans were or child likes to do)' seems thats working for now. haha. but of course make sure you follow through with the offer.

yeah. its just a recycled gift. you should keep it... wait for next year then gib it back.

... really lari topic... dunno what brand my house use. just buy whatever is cheap. these days nothing works well. all cut costs. 1 drop clean many plates... PUI!!!!

heheh. tomorrow only man. you can do it. just drive safely when balik kampung.

sorry to hear that man. the only way is just to straight up tell her to cut down on unnecessary spending. Especially on clothes for newborn. my wife is pretty money conscious so often i dont need to tell her, but there are moments of weakness haha. the main issue is branded doesnt necessarily always equal good. especially for baby clothes. unless by branded you mean famous baby brands. but yeah. maybe its just an outlet for her. stress relief.

for my son now for peeing we dont bother training, but start with poopin. so when he makes a weird face we know then we force him to sit on the potty. sometimes i gotta read him a book as he doesnt like to sit on it hahah. but these days is getting better.

kesian man. my waifu like to clean but only on the surface.... so all place not in sight, she wont clean. so i always need to clean under sofa, under the bed the shelves and stuff.

waifu cooking not bad. but getting better. always parents cook, so now she is learning. i guess your waifu also just learning right? tell her follow recipes and soon she will get used to it. but dunno if you say that she will rage or not...

my in laws, you put bag on the floor.... in 5 mins its gone into store room..... except their own stuff. their stuff everywhere. then i put one thing on the table and kena rage. 'dont leave your stuff out here' dafuq...

keyword: boy. imo dont need to send. my son 2 yo that time still cant speak much. then 2.5 something clicked, now talking non-stop whether he knows the word or not, just throw words out and chatting with you. lol. so depends on what 'not talking much' is how much?

that may just be his personality. introvert, like to focus on tasks and only talk with people close to them. most boys learn to speak quite slowly. so just check out the averages and should be ok. check with your ped doc first before going to therapist.

should be...

hahah. ok lah tu. standard price. sweet cherry?

ah seems similar to the one i got. super compact and light. can sling over shoulder i guess.

what book. let us know lah. we also need to study. dont make me rant about you! hahahaha

thanks, ill check it out. never read parenting books. but could be good for my mind.

he misses you lah. last time working late in a meeting my colleague get call every 10 mins. each one from different kid. hahaha. kesian.

ive already kinda stopped raising my voice at my son. he already gets the point. now i just tell him "baba is not angry yet. so please stop that." he straight LOL and then stop.

for my family im the strict one and my son is sorta scared of me because even i dont really get angry with him. if i say i will do something. always follow through.

'dont eat your food, i will put you farther from our table.' then put him like 1 meter away and let him rage out. after few minutes. 'ok to come back and eat?' 'yes' hahahah.

my wife tries sometimes but he always knows she is bluffing. because she spends more time with him so i guess she cant be doing that all the time. so need to give way to him. once give way one time. he will always remember hahah.

last time i really rage at my wife though when i put him away from the table and her dad quickly brought him back. fuuu. i really pissed off. when they live with us. our kid became a real pain in the ass. cannot control...

hahah. for us my boy sleeps late already so that was still ok. but just dont want to listen to anything i say. everything he quickly run to grandpa. my parents are ok, they have experience raising 3 of us. and then also now 3 cucu's. so they understand... when i do something or yell at my kid. they all diam. but my inlaws only have 1 daughter, and then now 1 cucu. so my boy so damn pampered it drives me nuts!!!


if something really bad, i whack first, then talk. otherwise he wont stop.
