A 13year old kid in Uk becomes a dad

Sorry to hear about your friend's kid. I hope he's staying out of trouble now! My Singaporean friends all have younger children, and so far they are pretty tightly controlled by the parents or grandparents. Most have after school tuition for many school subjects, and don't really have a lot of self-guided free time to get up to much bad business.

I said that many kids in the UAE are being raised by helpers/maids/nannies. I did not say Emirati children exclusively. Some countries in the world have a culture of hired domestic help that even expats take up when living there because they can afford it. I meant to include those people as well.

Actually, I notice a difference between children raised with helpers/maids/nannies in Singapore. Many local parents don't let the helpers discipline the kids, and the kids can be rotten to the helpers, but the stricter family culture and emphasis on respect mean they aren't as rude to adults and teachers - unlike what I found in the UAE.

p.s. And let's not even get into the subject of how helpers/maids/nannies are treated by locals vs. expats from certain parts of the world.

well that's going to be an interesting thing to discuss and to post youtube videos of your maids beating your children with cooking wares and strangling them with pillows bcz you are treating them nicely .

but again it is just you kanelli, you just have to turn any subject and compare it to us ,UAE or Islam ! what's new. unlike you everyone else is sticking to the subject ❗

So the word "locals" only belongs to those in the UAE? You don't suppose Singaporeans are "locals" compared to the "expats"? 😂

Mostly when I'm talking about 'locals' I mean the emirati people. This is not completely correct I believe.
Locals are also the expats and housemaids that reside in Dubai for lets say, a minimum of a year with no intention to leave. That would be a more complete definition of 'the local'.

Locals are more than just the Arab community. The word 'location' underpins the 'local'.

Simply said: You guys are all the same bunch of sweaty guys 😀 : D 😀
