Pro-create!

Sorry for the missing post for weeks due to my ICT and lack of interest to blog.

But today I have an interesting topic at hand. The Govt plan to increase our Local Population.
They have increase the 3 months to 4 months maternity. This is due to the feedback from the female population. They prefer to have that additional 1 month rather than letting the father have a Paternity leave. Why can't they let both the father and mother take the additional 1 month of leave?

Yes it is a big cost to the company if both are to take leave. It makes business sense just to let one go rather than two. Yet to raise a baby is and should be two people role(expect single mother/father). The stress that a mom has to undertake while caring for the infant are huge. Changing of diapers, feeding the baby, hoaxing them to sleep and many other small little things. All these takes up a huge amount of time. Allowing father to assist the mom in the first month will not going lessen the burden on the mom but also allow the father to bond with their child.
This is a mindset issue and it might take a long time before both the govt and company are willing to accept it.

Now my next issue that I'm going to talk might come back and bite my A*s. In the paper these past few days, many people talk about the past that how we can pro-create without govt incentives. I agreed with them having a big family should not have money as a push factor.

It is all about having time. With ample time, feelings can develop, communication can improved and will result in well more time to "做人". Maybe the Govt, should implement a "No OT' policy or no OT over certain period of time. Any company that flout the rules shall be fine.

I'm very into having a big family. I want to have a min. of 3 children before I hit 35 years old. Yes this is my dream and Yes I'm still single making my dream a hard to become reality. My love life sucks everytime I go after a gal they reject me.(another story for another time)

People always said that Guy reaching 30s are their prime. Prime for their job, I agreed. But prime in starting a family, this I have a different view. Having a kid at late 30s means that when they get married and start having a family I might be in my 60s odd. I like to be there to carry and with a little grace from God to be able to hear my grandchild call me grandpa. Call me old school this is how I want my life to end.

If every when God call me home and ask me do I have a good life. I will said yes knowing that I have live long enough to see my children grow up, get married and to be able to hold my grandchildren in my arms.

Kids are never a burden because in them runs your blood!
