Many times when I am at work, my children call me “Mom, the internet is down” makes me very impatient.
Every day, I take advantage of my lunch break to drive home to cook for my children, instructing them to learn, play and stay safe. My 2 children are very good and understanding, but the children in the active age group are still better.
Before, my wife and I were still busy at work but 2 children were taken to school or sent back to their hometown to be looked after by grandparents. Now that the pandemic is complicated, my whole family has to work harder.
I hope this will be the time to help my children become more self-disciplined and aware because they have to take care of the chores themselves.
