this may not be the right group of people but I was wondering for those who buy into funds - any thoughts if it is too late to get into this gravy train for AI stocks
an acquaintance who does RM says they have been recommending this to clients but does it mean its time to run away from this fund?
I know this sub prefers VWRA but for those who have a bit more funds that came around from bonus?
I am sure you have heard of the dark triad personalities.
Do such parents raise us to be also of certain personality type?
We hear so many adults who hate their parents, and some reason are perfectly valid - neglect, abuse - physical and verbal.
how about the other way? do parents ever hate their children when the children are older? In SG's context where everyone is expected to get along asian style, are there parents who hate their adult children and are only with the adult children because they need them financially?
SG society thinks parents have a huge hand to play in moulding the child, but given that even in my generation most parents already sublet child minding to the grandparents and helpers and TV networks, is this really true?
Even Amos Yee's mum loves Amos Yee unconditionally. amazing.
Was on the train and noticed a boy about 3-4 years old being scolded really harshly by his dad. Obviously it's only a small glimpse into daily life but from what I saw, the boy wanted his mother to carry him, but mother didn't want to as she was tired. Boy started crying and fussing and got really shouted by the dad. Dad shouted at him and called him a few names like baby and troublemaker and weak. the boy obviously started crying even more and refused to walk so the dad shouted at him for being a crybaby and pushed him to walk in a rough fashion. the sister - yes she is younger though about 2-3 - was being carried by the helper.
it isn't the first time I have seen dad treating sons pretty harshly even though the child is really young. is there some expectations from dads to toughen the boys here in a asian parenting style? I dont really see mothers being so obvious about it for little boys - yes for maybe older kids, but I really have seen tons of dads pushing little boys really hard and scolding them and beating them more harshly.
the common refrain will be - they have to go to NS so better teach them the real world now.
