episode The Hidden Struggles of a Single Parent artwork
The Hidden Struggles of a Single Parent

Join our host June as she speaks with Haze Feng, a single mum who candidly shares her roller coaster journey of raising her 12-year-old son. Haze opens up about the immense emotional and financial load—from battling a hidden alcohol addiction while maintaining a strong exterior, to overcoming self-condemnation and feelings of failure following her divorce. She discusses the tendency to overcompensate out of guilt and shares the crucial lesson of not being too hard on herself. Haze emphasises that it truly takes a village to raise a child and encourages single parents to dare to ask for help, give themselves time to process, and actively connect with supportive communities. Tune in to hear Haze’s powerful message—and be assured that you are not alone and should be proud of your strength and resilience. -- “I was all ready to quit after seven years of marriage.

episode Why Does my Child Procrastinate? artwork
Why Does my Child Procrastinate?

Think your teen is just being lazy? Think again. Procrastination isn’t laziness—it’s often rooted in fear, emotional overwhelm, or high expectations. In this episode, host Aaron speaks with counsellor Paul Lim to unpack why teens struggle to get started. Paul explains that procrastination is a symptom, not the root—often tied to self-doubt and pressure. He challenges parents to reflect: could our own fears or need for control be shaping the parent-child dynamic? When we project anxiety, we risk turning parenting into a transactional or controlling relationship. To truly support our children, we must first work on ourselves. Tune in to learn how to break the cycle and build trust, connection, and healthy habits that last. -- Sign up here [https://family.org.sg/login] to create an account with Focus on the Family Singapore to access a wide range of marriage and parenting resources [https://www.family.org.sg/resources] designed to nurture and strengthen your family relationships. -- Do you have a question for us, or a topic you would like to hear about?
