Stressed...

Sigh!! ... Stressed again. Sometimes, I'm just getting sick of listening to the complains from my kids. They just have something to complain to me everyday. From food to clothes, toys, school,..anything and everything etc. etc. etc....
Everytime I just try to be patient and explaining to them what's right and wrong but at times I started to scold them. There are few things that my kids can't change no matter how many times I have talked to them and teached them. Any help??

  • One of my kids biggest bad habit is they will never ever put back the things that they took out at their respective places. Is this because of I've started hired a maid at home since their baby time and have created a lazy character on them.
  • They are very calculative among their siblings. They will never helped each other. It's like when I ask my elder daughter to keep some books. She will tell me "I didn't read the books" The same goes to my son and youngest daughter. They will tell me, ... not me this and not me that!!! and one day I just told them, "Okayy,,...if like that, then I will just wash my own clothes, own dishes, do my own things and they have to seperately doing their own stuff ~ lol. To be calculative right??? Why must I do all their stuff. Preparing everything for them? After telling them this, they will starts to helping me in anyway...hahaha~
  • I always have to nagged them to take their bath and eat. Sometimes, I was really tired of this. Anyone of you out there who have the same problems with me???

tintin,
Don't stress don't stress. I think this is quite normal. Just look at us adults... we also complain! I think somehow, it's the "trend" nowadays to complain. No also complain, got also complain... *sigh*

hello tintin,

I didn't hire any maid, i just call the maid service once a week. I start to trained my daugher to keep her toy after playing and after eat her meal, she has to take her plate to the kithen. At the moment I just have one daughter so i dunno my daughter will be calculative or not ^-^.
