Ok it's stressful. Yes not all can understand. But to murder

Under the covit environment, the situation face by the family is extreme.... Can the government provide more real support to such family?

It did not have to be like this :( and hope family finds closure .. As a parent of special needs can empathize with what father might have gone through.. with two to care can see why he might have snapped :(:( .. we have failed the boys as a society :(:(..

Still killing is...

It is extremely stressful in pandemic SG n rising inflation. The gov will be helping by raising gst. Transferring the tax burden from the super-rich to the masses is the gov's way of helping.

Not can be; DEFINITELY physical and emotional strain

May they RIP. Sad Sad Sad indeed!

😥

Haiz.

You give them up for adoption. You place them in an hospice, what you don’t do is MURDER THEM. They are not YOUR chattel to do as you please with them. No lame excuses here. Take RESPONSIBILITY. Find the parents and prosecute them for a double homicide with all the ramifications.

You put them in an hospice. You certainly don’t murder them. What kind of flimsy excuse is this? Other people around the planet deal with children with special needs and they don’t succumb to murder, just what kind of lame excuse is this? HELLO.

it's tiring, stressful, sometimes feel you are all alone and has to be self reliant and can only depend on yourself to stay strong. even your close family members won't or can't understand what you are going thru.

Wow, a new low

Ugh 🤬pls leave kids out of ur marital drama ありがとう Raising 2 autistic kids in SG is extremely stressful. Our gov should learn from Australia. They spend 20% of their gdp on social welfare. SG 5%. Australians are gracious because their gov is gracious. SG gov wants to enforce graciousness - fine those who do not return the tray.
