I'm sick of all the baby talk that's going on in Singapore. The cover of the lifestyle section of The Sunday Times is filled with babies! And inside it are nine pages of all things related to having babies.
Examples of articles:
- Pros & Cons of being a younger mum and older mum
- Information on fertility treatments
- Adoption
- Aphrodisiacs (apparently asparagus, garlic, ginger, celery, onions, pine nuts and walnuts are the lesser-known ones)
- Couples talking about how wonderful it is to have children
While I have nothing against babies, I think all these baby talk is ttooooo in-your-face if you know what I mean. I'm amazed at how the newspapers can find so much to write about it. After all these months of baby talk, I would have thought everything there is to be talked about would have been talked about already. But no, it seems they still have more baby propaganda stashed somewhere. I'll bet there is a constant supply of baby propaganda from the government's spin-doctors.
Yours truly is a perfect example of the government's source of headache - Single female in her 20s whose uterus is not contributing to the production line. The latest update is that the uterus will remain at its status quo for quite awhile and the government will just have to live with that!
