Another phase of life begins for my todd and me, even as I observe all the mannerisms he's displaying at age one and a half. I realise that parenting doesn't come as a given for me, at least, because I reckon that most parents model after our parents who modelled after their parents and the list goes on.
Some parents go the extra mile by signing up for workshops and seminars about parenting (like I did) and come away better equiped.
I have a strong suspicion that majority of Singaporean parents do neither, as they simply let their kids be (as the adage "boys will be boys" goes). Going by the disciplinary problems Singapore schools are facing, my layman observation may be true.
