The PAP MP always prioritises time with his children, aged between five and 13. Every morning, he wakes them up at around 6am and sends them to school. In the evening, he makes it a point for the family to have dinner together, and tries to end evening engagements by 8.20pm to tuck them into bed.
“As a parent, I don’t believe that quality time is good enough. I believe quantity time is necessary. So I prioritise frequent, regular interactions with my children, and that doesn’t go away. You have to be faithful in the small things,” he told CNA during an interview at Bendemeer Market and Food Centre.
That means finding pockets of family time between morning and evening commitments, or sometimes taking the children along. He draws the line, however, at posting their pictures online.
