Family first before work

I received this touching story passed to me in an email from a former classmate in college.
A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
SON: “Daddy, may I ask you a question?”
DAD: “Yeah sure, what it is?” replied the man.

Reflections from BMTC visit (part 1)

Problem Youth Gambling- whose fault is it?

I read with sadness about problem youth gamblers. 
Mr Lee, a counsellor for 14 years, shared stories of his encounters with problem youth gamblers in a news report.
One man, who is now in his 40s, started gambling when he was just 8.
Mr Lee recalled: ‘His mother was running an illegal 4-D outlet, and he would give some money [...]
