I brought Peanut to the park yesterday evening.
Sitting at the playground there, I noticed one thing. There was a disproportionately large number of foreign domestic workers (predominantly Filipinas) who had brought their charges to the playground, compared to parents or grandparents bringing their children or grandchildren for some fun.
I am not sure if this is generally the trend and that I would see the same thing happening at another playground located within an HDB setting.
Or is this just due to the demographics of the area I am living in, where families rely more on domestic helpers than elsewhere.
Whichever it is, I feel a little sad that kids are unable to have fun at the playground with their own parents...sigh.
