well some are truly mistreated but some of these maids also make it up, because they want to change their employer. And if they are being tortured or mistreated they should go to the agency asap. Why do they stay with an employer who does that to them?..Would you stay 2 years or even 6 months with s...

anybody has thoughts on the maid whose bf murdered her recently?.. still think its a good idea for them to have bfs?...FYI most of these so called "boyfriends" are also already married with kids. What if one of these psycho obsessive bfs of your maid comes to your house and does something to ur kids...

obviously, no one is locking them up and i would/ could not do that either. If they have bf's i wouldnt know about that either...its their own choice of course...but what i mean is even with protection...those undesirable things can happen so its hard but its better for them to abstain...and its not...

I'm so exhausted with searching for a maid...none of the agencies want to help after they hear my "indian" accent over the phone (tho i'm not an indian but close), because the maids "only want to work for caucasians".... i thought this would be easy but its not....i feel like going and complaining t...

of course everybody needs friends, how about platonic friends and its not like women cant survive without men! i'm sorry but sex isn't the "only" thing in life....and then even with protection you cant be sure there won't be accidents...its only 98 percent effective...a lot of people get pregnant an...

sundaymorningstaple- where are you from?....i know you're the moderater and everything but i find your way of writing quite smug and condescending - just being honest here...are u an american -caucasian? this is what i gather from your comments...you guys just rule the world don't you...i bet George...

Isnt everyone forgetting that most of these maids are married and already have husbands & kids, so getting pregnant or having lovers is actually adultery...but i guess most people are ok with adultery and extra marital sex these days....no harsh comments please...as a person who believes in and prac...

hi all, i'm looking for a transfer maid who is good with kids, cooks well and is hardworking and pleasant. I'm willing to give 2 sundays and 2 weekdays off as my hubby is only off on sundays as well. 400 sg dollars is also fine by me as long as shes experienced in childcare and cooking. Also it woul...

AS i said in my earlier post: we moved in 2 months ago and from the beginning the kichen tap/pipe had a leak...asked the landlord to fix it and she bought her husband over to fix it (he's not a plumber). her husband messed with the pipes changed a pipe and said everythings ok. now after that i thoug...

i know but we've been here 2- 1/2 months. well the contract says we have to pay 200 per item and she says its 2 items...so we pay 400...plus we already paid 50 for the pipe.

well depends ...if u have the "expat" package ...fabulous for you...but if you dont (like me)...tough...esp with kids. its just too expensive. we never had money problems before and now we are...throw in a very evil landlord to boot.

hi everyone, we moved in 2 months ago and from the beginning the kichen tap/pipe had a leak...asked the landlord to fix it and she bought her husband over to fix it (he's not a plumber). her husband messed with the pipes changed a pipe and said everythings ok. now after that i thought the leak is go...

as i said my 4 year old goes there...i've never heard her talking about fighting or anything. she loves going to school. everyone has good things to say and just because 1 person said something negative u completely change your mind. incredible.

no i dont think that its just wat i see when i take my kids out to a play place , there are only a few other moms (and they dont have maids)...the rest are kids with maids...

My 4 yr old is going to Emaar. She seems happy. They have a v good campus, and reasonable fee. One thing which really impressed me , shes already singing mandarin songs and its just been a month. Their bus service is really good. I cant pick n drop my daughter so the bus is really helpful & safe.
