"Oh, I am all kinds of quirky. And I’m known for telling somewhat 'bad' jokes. Yes, my humour level is rather unsophisticated. Let’s just say I can relate to kids quite easily and usually put a smile on their face. Like have you heard about the pig that does Karate? He’s called Pork Chop! And what about Mike, do you know what he was like before he married Ruth? Ruth-less!" We love Talking Point host and presenter @steven.chia's dad jokes (even if they're a little cringey 😝) In celebration of Father's Day, this week we're looking back on all the great interviews we've done with some Cool Dads in Singapore! Click link in bio to read more on Steven's fave spots to take the kids, awesome book recommendations and more in our interview with him from 2018.⁠

"When I got to know I was carrying a girl, I was s

"When I got to know I was carrying a girl, I was super thrilled. Having a baby girl means you get to be best friends forever. It means I get to be her point of reference in every stage of life. My early months with my toddler is my favourite and those moments, I treasure the most. I love knowing I can be her source of comfort when she's unsure and still learning about the world. I love that at the end of a long day, all she wanted was to wind down with mama. I love that I am the one she turns to when she's scared or in pain... I love being her safe space. For the longest time I thought this was the only way - mama for all the good and bad days - and that's where I was wrong.⁠
⁠
As my daughter grew older she developed more skills and her own preferences. I am super proud of her asserting her own preferences but I hadn't factored that these preferences might mean her preferring daddy over me! You see, I am the parent who makes sure she's fed, clothed and cleaned. Sometimes in between juggling work, house and family, maybe I forgot to slow down. All she gets from me are the checklists that need to get ticked - dinner, shower, bedtime. Unknowingly, I had turned into the 'discipline' parent and my husband, the 'fun' one. Maybe it's my fault that I did not take the time to play with her or make routines fun like my husband did.⁠
⁠
One time, she cried for daddy for bath time, playtime and bedtime. My heart sank a little at the thought of being rejected by my own toddler and being the second-favourite parent. Maybe I am exaggerating, but I can't help questioning what if she simply doesn't need me anymore?..."⁠

Would your child know what to do if they got lost?

Would your child know what to do if they got lost? Are all strangers 'bad'? What about that adult who makes them feel uneasy and asks them to keep 'secrets'? Essential reading in our link in bio - these age-specific tips are not intended to scare you but instead help empower you with tools to help keep your kids safe.⁠
⁠
👶🏽 Kids under 3 years: Stay in Sight Always⁠
The rule should be that toddlers stay within your line of vision – they can roam around the playground or within an indoor play centre, but you should always be able to see them. ⁠
⁠
🧑🏻 Young and older kids: Teach them about consent and boundaries (this includes understanding the 'underwear or bathing suit rule’).
⁠
🧒🏽 Older kids: Talk about 'tricky people' (vs ‘stranger danger’). If your child is in trouble, strangers may be people who can help them so we don’t want them fearing everyone. So how do you help your child identify “tricky people”? Read our expert tips on this plus other ways to keep kids safe in our link in bio.⁠
