Think of each episode as a conversation with a friend, commiserating and laughing over coffee. There’s April, a career mum who loved her career in the tech industry – but left it behind because of the guilt she felt at leaving her two young children with a helper.
Pau Lin believed she was “too cool” for tuition…but questioned everything when her daughter did poorly in the PSLE. The real lesson though, came after, as she made peace with the path it set her daughter on.
The latest episode features Kris, a stay-home dad who struggled with depression. I was riveted and moved by his story, and hope you will be too.
We’ve got other powerful stories lined up. Like the mum whose daughter developed an eating disorder on her watch; and a humanitarian doctor torn between missions and leaving two young kids behind.
No matter how hard we try, there really are no perfect parents! If you’ve got an idea for a topic, or want to share your own parenting dilemmas, tell me at liannechiale@mediacorp.com.sg
