Had a conversation with Amal this mid morning about perangai anak-anak and our concern as mothers on macam-macam perkara concerning them especially bila anak nak meningkat remaja. Amal is tearing her hair over "teenage problems" with her first borne. Nak buat macam mana, a mother is not only the nurse, welffare officer, tukang masak, counsellor and teacher of a home as we wear different types of hats. It is expected of us.
But being children, we appeared to them as a big monster, breathing heavily unto them, ...trying to distrupt their "boring life". What they fail to understand that we dont want to be monsters as it is tiring to "fight" all the time.
On that note, yesterday,took out TH for lunch at 1 Utama.Lunch lambat sikit cos ada hal kat rumah (hubby fiddled with the computer....well, it was my fault...I was having some technical problems with the LT...but its nice to blame on someone...heheheh), anyway, I ordered claypot rice for TH (selepas tanya dulu), we both had the same claypot rice...different bowl, duh!...nampak macam TH tak beberapa suka cos she gave nearly all her chicken pieces to kakak. The nasi was basically just ayam kicap with cili potong.So, I tanya TH..." mak, kenapa bagi ayam banyak sangat kat Athira"...she answered." tak apa, ada banyak...", but sounded quite upset, so I said "kalau tak sedap, boleh tukar lain, mak nak makan apa?"...silence...silence...."tak apa....".
Adik, pulak makan maggie goreng...(minta tak pedas, just telur saja) ....tapi termakan portion yang ada seketul serbuk rempah maggie...adik pun tak nak makan, pedas...dah merajuk....So, I had dua orang merajuk with me..adik pulled a tantrum on the left and TH on the right feeling tak puas hati...aaargh....mujur kakak tak buat hal...now to think about it, she was kinda extra sweet to me...hmm, pandai play up to the occasion ye. But kids being kids, adik was okay bila dapat beli roti....macam-macam dia nak makan...hmm, same goes to TH, she was happily choosing bread and pastries with the cucus.
