woohoo... i simply love to see my friends leave messages in my cbox... i feel motivated and encouraged to blog more...
my yongjie is 15 weeks old le... he is sooo cute especially with his new 'hair style'.
i feel that he looks like young yongqi... both botak with rounded face.. very adorable!!! below are yongjie and yongqi botak pics...
recently i have been surfing youtube to watch videos on fetus development, abortion and babies who are born with damages... i really feel that every single healthy child is God's miracle and grace... they are all precious and deserved to be loved and protected!
i feel so angry when i see videos on abortion. they labelled the video as 'silent scream'. expert said that the fetus can actually feel the pain when it is being forcefully sucked out of the mum's womb. one ultrasound even shows that the fetus' mouth was opened when the sucking tube was inserted to suck it out.. it is believed that the fetus was screaming in pain!
en came near me when i was watching 'silent scream'. she asked me what is the clip about so i explained to her. i said that some irresponsible women did not protect themselves, slept around with guys and got themselves pregnant. as they were not married, they decided to kill their own babies. then i went on lecturing her that one is only allowed to sleep with the guy whom one is married to. we should only sleep with that man after we got married to him. we should only get ourselves pregnant after we are married.
well, i guess that is the simple version of sex and moral education... i remember last time my mum used to lecture me in this area too. she used to warn me not to let any guy touch my body. she also taught me to protect my chest and body in crowded area... many of my friends ever told me that my this concept is already out dated... i should not be so 'lao gu dong'... as the younger generation nowadays are more opened and mature than my generation. the world around us has changed. the younger generation should change with the world and not stay at my time...
yes i do agree that the world has changed... but not all changes are 'to be better' changes! most changes are deteriorating! especially in the aspects of value, fillial piety, morale... the media has so much influence on the younger generation. if parents fail to explain to their children what have happened around us, the media will do.. and it will be according to the media's values... and what is the media's value? a very gd example is the advertisment of 'eclipse'. a pc of refreshing candy, then eclipse took place and the woman started kissing a stranger on his lip... RUBBISH! TRASH! i criticised this adv in front of my kids whenever we see it on tv...
of course there are also good advertisment like macdonald's '$4.50 lunch on weekend' whereby the army guy treated his family lunch at macdonald...but if without an adult's hi-lighting, i think teens only got the message of cheap EVM at macdonald also available on weekend lunch, who would notice the pleasing look on the daddy's face and got 'inspired' to buy parents a meal or two (although teens have not much money, like that army guy)?
what i am trying to say is that we as parents, should spend times to impart our values, morale and belief to our children. Never ever allow others, especially the media, to do that on our behalf!
