here is the way I see it. If you have a 10 year old child, I think its perfectly normal to check their phone to ensure they are using the internet right. Its really a matter of trust, if the child can prove himself to be trustworthy, I feel like it is best to give them their privacy. However if they can't be trusted, I think its best parents check on them once in a while to ensure they are not doing inappropriate things online.

I personally think Ambrosia is suffering from some personal/mental issue that she can't say out and hence this is her way of showing defense, a defensive mechanism she took to shield herself from showing her real thoughts. As the parents have many kids to look after, it's hard to pay 100% of their attention to each and every child. Izzati and Izzah's stepfather should stop and should not even be intruding into their privacy by looking at their phones. They are at a sensitive age and from what I see, they act and know better than the so-called step-father. Does the Mum even know what her husband is doing to the daughters?

True. If you can't accept your step daughters as your own. Then, do not commit in a relationship with someone who has children from the previous marriage! As a Muslim, he should realised that he is still accountable for the step daughters welfares and needs. It is a written rule that it is his responsibility to love and care his step daughters and biological children EQUALLY! He has obviously failed his duties and I do not blame the 2 girls if they did not extend their love and respect for the step dad as he is a failure himself!

Bryan Lim seems to be having some psychological and learning issues. He should receive some professional counselling. Ambrosia Lim needs close supervision. At the rate she is going in school, with multiple disciplinary infractions, she will grow up to be a delinquent and get into trouble with the law when she becomes an adult. Mr Zainal should respect the privacy of her step daughter. He has no right to check on her cellphone. He is also showing favouritism towards his own biological sons which is causing a rift between his step daughters and his sons.

I am curious is all his children using data plan? Back in the days,i only have to depend on prepaid card & top up until i was 18 when i get my 1st data plan. Even at 18,i even burst the data & get overcharged. Mr Lim pampered his children too much.Sure maybe this his way of 'getting even with his children since he is always mostly overseas' but this is not the way. The mother has to be a little strict & uses your 1st & 2nd child as your negotiator between the children.

Stepfather or father does not matter, blood does not = family. It is what is in the heart. Can I just say that the stepfather is treating the girls like some prisoners rather than his own daughter?

Honestly, why is there a need for the stepfather to check the handphones? If they've done nothing wrong to warrant that check, it's just an invasion of privacy. If the girls are slacking behind on chores/ grades, breaking curfew and such, fair enough. But if they're generally well behaved, I don't see why he should do that. It'll cause a greater rift between them. Also, if you want to stick the two eldest with the babysitting and chores, you have to give them the liberty to discipline the younger ones too. Don't like it when they scold their step siblings? Parent them yourself.^^

18:44 when the stepdad said they aren’t (allowed because they) don’t control the house. Then why the bloody molly are you letting them look after their younger siblings if you think they aren’t mature or responsible enough, or what I tell just stupid. If you think they are young enough to do certain thing then you know what why don’t you look after the younger ones and not feel like ripping your hair off. Izzati and Izzah have the right to teach their younger siblings what is right and what is wrong so long as it’s not severe.

Honestly!!! Like??? He himself admitted that he's more lenient with his own son. It goes to show how lax he is over his own biological children. He expects them to babysit but they can't discipline nor raise their voice at the younger ones? Did they see how he was behaving? Granted, it's just a couple of minutes peek into their lives but what happens when the parents aren't home? At that age, kids can be rather mischievous.

The 2 stepdaughters make a better parent as compared to their stepfather/parents. The guy is not even the father; he's a stepfather. And he takes away their deserved privacy by checking their phone and gives them little to no authority to manage his own biological children? And he has that audacity to whine that the 2 stepdaughters arent close to him as compared to their biological father?! Lol i think the stepfather is better off in prison (literally to work) than being at home.

@@deadaccbye.8036 Girl/boy tf is your comment i obviously dont understand your grammar 🤷‍♀️ Not ALL parents check their children's phone. Even if the child is really a deliquent and there is a need to check his/her phone, a better way is to encourage him/her to share rather than coerce him/her to hand it over unwillingly. In fact if you can see with your very eyes, he also checked his step daughter's phone in an interrogation kind of manner. He hasn't properly bonded with them yet he did that. Maybe it looked overdramatised here but oh well it could jolly well be how this exactly looks like each time; idk 🤷‍♀️ I just felt awkward and uncomfortable watching in the stepdaughter's shoes myself. You have every right to be disappointed if your stepkids aren't close to you ONLY IF you have worked genuinely hard enough to earn their trust and love. In this episode + in my opinion, i didn't see how the stepdad did so 🤷‍♀️ "He deserves to be jail" = ??!! ^^^^ I mentioned that he is better off literally working in a prison cuz as mentioned in this ep or the previous one, he was working as a prison officer. Idk why you are taking my statement out of context 🤷‍♀️ I understand there is no perfect parenting model.

​@@laydieehannah You're right. His intentions are good because it's important to make sure his stepdaughters don't mix with the wrong crowd at her age, but he executes it so awkwardly it will only strain the relationship between them. She will learn how to keep secrets from him eventually. Izzah seems like a mature young lady who values her independence, so he should adapt his parenting method to respect that instead of using the usual interrogation techniques and treating her like a child. He should aim to be her confidant, so that she can speak freely about her friends and her feelings. If you detect something wrong in her thought process, gently guide her to a better method e.g. instead of getting home by 4, point out why it's better to be home early, so that she can understand your perspective as well. Forcing this information out is just going to make her feel all gross and icky inside. It's like another form of invasion of privacy. He needs to trust her and stop checking her phone all the damn time.

Finished this video with so many frustrations. All the parents (and step parents) will learn so much from the comments section.. I guess I summed it up here.. 1. If you cannot afford to spend time on your kids individually, don't have a big family. Each child deserves their parents' unconditional love, but that is difficult when the family is big. 2. Ambriose should go proper counselling (not the school counselling) and change her attitude. She is experiencing something in her head most of us cannot see and understand and it must be tough on her too, just that nobody bothered to try to understand her. 3. Bryan just needs to work hard tbh, he's a good kid. Learn from eldest sis Crystal when he needs help and form a support system. 4. All the parents need to be consistent in their discipline methods. To the Lim father, I'm sorry but I honestly don't agree that Bryan should apologise when his sister picked the fight because it is not his fault. Asking both parties to apologize when one of them is not at fault will very likely lower his self-esteem. Make him feel comfortable when alone with the parents though. Build up emotional stability and security by spending more time with him and not put words into his mouth (like forcing him to promise) although we all mean good for him. Keep on encouraging Bryan and I'm sure he will find motivation and get far in life. He needs to find a goal to work towards. 5. To the Zainal family stepdad, and mom actually, respect your kids and treat them as your own, if not then don't expect them to treat you nicely too. Invading their privacy will not help any situation - in fact it is straining your relationship more. Getting to know who they are mingling with is just an excuse. You can trust them to mix with the right people, unless you're telling me you didn't teach that too. Also, if the older siblings cannot scold the younger ones when they misbehave, the younger ones will step on their heads and disrespect and disregard them. So what if they are all children? They don't need to respect one another? If you are the only one who can scold the family, then you are just a tyrant.

I wonder how the birth father feels about this, seeing that he still have a relationship with them. I'd be pissed mad if my children's step mom tries to "mother" them, I'm still alive, step parents should learn their place and stay there.

i respect Ethel solely on how she confronted Bryan about his bad grades. shouting at your kids because they failed their exams will never make them more motivated to study. talking to them calmly and showing them that it’s okay to not get full marks every single time is definitely the right thing to do. hats off to the mother 👍🏼

i think she is too soft. no need to scold or beat anyone, but she has lost her boundaries as a parent. she is negotiating and bargaining with a boy who does not want to study, doesnt enforce consequence, or teach him responsibility and discipline to put down his phone when it is time to but then expects him to do well academically? fat chance.

When ur too lenient to your children, they can be rebellious esp when they cant get what they want. Their expectation n demand fr their parents will be higher. Discipline shd starts since they're toddler. Set in religious knowledge, social n civic education as much as u can coz it does helps wif their life. I hv 4 kids n all are 1.5yrs apart n all are well behaved n successful. Never once i had problem wif them. Parenting style n education is really important. Children see n follow what adults do.

My biological older sister scolds my siblings and I when we were younger whenever we misbehave and I feel like all four of us turned out to be fairly obedient and decent people. However, even after all the scolding we get from her, we can still be out of control at times so I cannot imagine not being able to scold your younger siblings but having your parents to still expect them to behave and respect the elders because I personally feel like that is not going to make ANY relationships better for anyone. i'm not a fan of "authority" but there should still be some form of RESPECT and TRUST to at least your older children (be it biological or not) to take care of your younger ones. It doesnt look like trust or respect from your stepdaughters anymore..... they look and sound like they have NO CHOICE. Your stepdaughters play such an important role in the family especially as the oldest two in the family because they have to be role models but if your younger children doesn't even learn to respect their older siblings, who are they suppose to look up to? This family doesnt need authority. They need TRUST and RESPECT from one another.

For Samantha’s issue, interfaith relationship/marriage is quite common nowadays and yes, to find someone on the same frequency as you is important as well. However, I believe it still boils down to the couple themselves and they definitely need to talk about how they would like to raise their child before they step into marriage. Even though many would say people of different religion do not fit together but couples fall out for even the slightest matter. In this sense, why would religion matter so much? It’s really between you and your partner. If your love for each other can overcome everything, don’t be afraid. But if currently, it’s just one-sided love, you better don’t think too much about it. It’s for your own good, really.

@@zhenyuhe1537 For someone who has grown in a Christian home and being a parent myself with grownup children, I would agree with Adam. Christian parents who honor God's written instruction not to be yoked with unbelievers are firm on this matter, specially Evangelicals (unless some who forsake the faith). The world system and its values like selfishness, pride, greed, lust that knows no bounds, idolatry, godlessness, etc. are rooted in an unbeliever's heart and opposes God. When a Christian son or daughter marries an unbeliever, he or she would be forced to conform to their spouse's values and so make a shipwreck of their faith, pulling their children down with them. We will all be facing our Judge on the Judgment Day, for what we have done on earth, good or bad. A fine Christian will work for his reward for the life he lived on earth. And God does not desire that any man should perish. He has issued the invitation to everyone. Jesus said, " Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and YOU SHALL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS, For My yoke is easy, and My load is light." (Matthew 11:28-30).

The step father and their mother goes out together but lets her two eldest children to take care of the others which to me seems frequent. The mother seems to not care of her children's welfare much and a yesman to her new husband. They lack discussion. And for the son,I hope he doesn't grow up to be insolent. This step father should know his place. Seems like the reason why he got divorced in the first place because of his behaviour . Controlling, lack of privacy and intolerable. It's like her children have turn to maids. No wonder one of her child wanted to go back to her real father.
