All About Your Child

Everyday there is something to teach our kids. And every year, I used Ben & Jerry’s Free Cone Day to teach them ‘Nothing on Earth is Truly Free’.

Though Ben & Jerry is giving cones of ice-cream for free today, Keatkeat learned (once again) that its paid with time, energy and patience.

4.13pm : We joined the queue. Was directly opposite our destination:

Keatkeat had a go at the sure win Q & A. Received a notepad from the sweet Ben & Jerry’s Staff

4.48pm : Just 8 more people before us.

4:51pm : Too busy Licking away. No time for photo-taking. Allan had Strawberry Cheesecake, while Keatkeat and I had Chocolate Fudge Brownie.

Just before we left, 3 drops into the lucky draw box. *fingers crossed*

So what did you teach your child today?

Nothing on Earth is Truly Free

Have you seen kids on leash in Singapore before?

I asked on Facebook yesterday, “Because of this (the Ang Mo Kio Attempted Kidnap Case), parents are thinking of putting their kids on leash, just like what they will do to their dogs.
Will you consider buying a leash for your child too?”

And I Liked every comment, regardless of which side of the fence they stood.

To me, people who dare to speak up are ones to be respected.

Many refused to comment for fear of being judged. That’s perfectly fine too, because everyone has different value system. No right, no wrong.

Though only 7 comments were collected till this point, I would love to get more feedback.

Stay true to yourself, that is very important in order to live as a happy person.

In order to gather votes from people who do not use Facebook, not my friends (yet) on Facebook and my blog readers; AND with the thought of making you feel perfectly fine with your “Yes” or “No” to my question, I decided to put up this poll.

Thus, go ahead and shout your “Yes” or “No” on the poll. No one will know it was from you, thus no one will say you are a good or bad parent. Good enough? *wink*

I am seriously interested to know how many truly would and how many would not.

Tell your friends about this vote too, I would love to have their votes cast here as well.
