Everyone asks the child who is moving, “Are you excited?”
But who checks on the best friend being left behind?
Their home hasn’t changed. Their school hasn’t changed. Their routine may look almost exactly the same.
Except one person has disappeared from it.
In Singapore’s international community, saying goodbye to friends can become an ordinary part of growing up. Perhaps because it happens so often, it can be easy to underestimate what the child who stays has lost.
If your child’s close friend is leaving, “You’ll make new friends” may not be what they need to hear first.
A better place to start might simply be:
“You really miss them, don’t you?”
Our new parent guide looks at what can help next — including staying connected without turning the friendship into another obligation, and making room for new friendships without treating them as replacements.

You don’t have to finish the argument to start repairing the relationship.

The argument may not be completely resolved. You may even still disagree.

But that doesn’t mean you have to stay emotionally disconnected until everything is settled.

Sometimes a small repair attempt — “Can we start over?”, “I’m still upset, but I care about you”, or simply taking responsibility for your part — creates enough safety to have the next conversation differently.

If the same conflicts repeatedly leave you feeling disconnected from each other, couples counselling can help you understand the pattern and find a different way through it.

You can know exactly what you need to do.

And still not start.

Ever found the “perfect” planner or productivity system…
…and stopped using it a few days later?

For adults with ADHD, the problem may not be a lack of effort.
Sometimes the system itself asks for too much remembering, consistency and maintenance.
