*TW: Self-harm*⁠ "My 12-year-old was self-harmin

*TW: Self-harm*⁠
"My 12-year-old was self-harming. I wasn't ready for this. When I found out, it was 10:30pm and I was laying in bed reading. My two kids were already in bed. My phone was lying beside me, and it started to vibrate. I answered the unfamiliar number. It was the mom of my daughter’s new friend, Maddie and I’d never spoken to her before. “Hey. You may already know this, but Brandon just called Maddie and said Jane was feeling suicidal and cutting herself.” (Brandon is my daughter’s current crush). The air left my lungs. I couldn’t breathe. I took deep breaths, trying to calm myself so I wouldn’t overreact, but when I walked into her room, I fell apart. My precious girl was sitting on her bed holding a pair of scissors. Jane turned 12 earlier this year. We knew we’d start dealing with all the ups and downs of puberty and tweenhood. Mood swings, eye-rolling, slamming doors, manically happy one minute and stormy the next. Interest in boys and tons of friend drama. We were ready for that. But this. Not this. These types of dark things only happened in homes where the children are abused, neglected, ignored. Right?"⁠

New baby zebra alert! 🦓 Singapore Zoo has just

New baby zebra alert! 🦓 Singapore Zoo has just welcomed their newest bundle of joy – an endangered Grevy’s zebra foal! This is the first Grevy’s zebra to be born in Singapore Zoo 😍 The female baby zebra has been named Izara, a girl’s name of African origin meaning 'star'. Grevy’s zebras are the largest and most endangered of the world’s three remaining zebra species (the other two being the plains and mountain), and they are found in isolated pockets of Ethiopia and Northern Kenya. Wild populations have fallen by 85 per cent in the last 30 years with their decline attributed to a reduction of water sources, habitat loss, hunting, and disease. Click our link in bio for our kid-friendly guide to the Singapore Zoo before you head there to see the baby zebra for yourself!⁠

"I quarantined in Australia with my 8 kids. We ret

"I quarantined in Australia with my 8 kids. We returned to Brisbane in September 2020 from Singapore where we had lived since 2014. My oldest daughter had delivered her first child Sienna who had been diagnosed with high risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) which is very rare in children under 12 months. The day we found out I told my children to get their suitcases and that we were going to fly home. At that time, re-entry to Singapore was banned so taking the children with me while my husband stayed to work was essential. Hotel quarantine in Australia has not changed much since and home quarantine is rarely granted. There is no prior organisation, you arrive at the airport, you are assigned a hotel based on availability that day and then you are placed on a bus with any other travellers who also arrived, no social distancing. We were given two standard interconnected hotel rooms, no kitchen or washing facilities. Our floor space was only a few square metres, despite having a crawling baby and a toddler. We spent a large part of our day rearranging furniture to make more floor space. We probably got outdoor breaks every 2-3 days and always tried to make the most of them with a picnic rug, skipping ropes and an outdoor speaker. It's hard to explain the effect that having your freedoms taken has on you. At the time I was in quarantine I didn’t know if my granddaughter would survive long enough to even meet her. She had a few hairy moments during my stay and the feeling of helplessness of waiting to see a sick family member can feel torturous. I wouldn’t choose to quarantine again for a holiday or short term reason. The effect on all of the children took months to wane, so it’s not something I would choose with very small children on a whim."⁠

If you were a kid, how cool would it be to visit SuperPark whenever you wanted? That’s what GM Carolyn Chia’s kids get to do, all in the name of ensuring a great customer experience! We chat to Carolyn about⁠ her busy schedule while looking after her three kids with no domestic help. “In all honesty, it’s a constant juggling act. Balance is an elusive dream in a perfect world that hardly exist 😉 For me, it’s about maintaining sanity and having a hands on spouse that makes a world of difference…”⁠
