Gahment been having lotsa discussions about promoting baby-making in Singapore..First is Romancing Singapore & now Baby Boom..have all Singaporeans been so rigid in lives that even personal stuffs have to be encouraged and lured by? Incentives given, in which to me, is not equivalent to the expenses and experience needed to have more kids. In the past, it was strictly quota of two and now more..WHY?? High cost of living of course and lack of attention to be given to kids, that made couples think really hard before ready to have one..If living by oneself is hard to come by, what more if living together and plus the babies that's coming up? I don't see the point of giving incentives in which I think is no big deal.They should give more help..like medical fees subsidised and stuffs.Not all parents out there can afford the medical check-ups during pregnancies,plus hospital bills,baby expenses and the list goes on. Seen discussions among moms-to-be and those who are already mommies..lotsa sighing and complaining..about this and that..if only the MPs can really put themselves into the shoes of the needy ones..that'll be much better..by the way, having kids is another pressure too for the moms..that's where pre and post natal blues comes by..how funny it can be to be constantly in pressure being Singaporeans..despite all the complains, I still love my country for I wouldn't be where I am without all the advancement in technologies and education system..it juz boil down to the fact that nothing's perfect in this world and nothing will satisfy any human..there are bound to be imperfections in the eyes and minds of others still..so either we live with it or quit it..in which is unlikely to follow the second thought..
Read the TNP about baby adoption that seems to be rising locally. Stop giving birth but adopting kids..hmm could it also due to vanity of those career/beauty-minded ladies that leads to the baby bust?? I don't know how true that can be but judging from the reporst TNP gave..it made me wonder..if modern women have been too modernised to have placed motherhood a secondary thought or goal in their lives..but that'll lead to another thing - divorce..in which it's also another problem..too much confidence in leading life independently also is bad for a person's life..that's when you can see one gets married soon after to file for an annulment.. k nvm..got to go..will continue later when free..hehe the point is - MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR!
Love..Life..Very Special..
