My babysitter is one to split everything, down to the handkerchiefs that she uses on the kids she takes care of. That means, she doesn't do it like I do: grab the first handkerchief that was previously used to rub the saliva off one kid to rub mucus off the other kid (okay, I fess I don't do that but it would be the perfect example if I did, but it would speak tonnes of how irresponsible a mother I am, which I hope, I am not). How I wish all mothers are like that.
How I wish mothers don't sit in one spot to eat, and feed her two kids and a niece her fried rice off the same spoon.
How I wish mothers don't say it's okay to share kiddie spoons because she doesn't have time to go get one for her own kid.
How I wish mothers do more than just call out "sweetie, that is jie jie's water bottle, don't drink from it" but still let them.
How I wish mothers would be more worried when their kids are sick and will do everything to make sure they get better soon, rather than leave a lingering cough unattended for 3 weeks.
How I wish mothers would stop hitting the floor or pillars everytime their kid falls or hits something out of their clumsiness then say "bad floor, bad pillar, why did you make her fall?" - yes, it makes no sense but people do.
How I wish mothers would stop highlighting every single thing their kids CAN do and try to work on fixing what the kids SHOULD NOT do like scream or cry loudly for attention.
How I wish...
