wether she wants to fast or not its her personal choice so try not to interfere with her decision. however do remind her that if she really cannot tahan then ask her to break her fast cos she have to remember she still had her job to do. my SIL 's maid fasted during fasting month and so far she's doing well.Hi mummies,
wld like to find out if i shld let my Indo maid fast?
My agent told me that shouldn't let her fast cos what if she faint while working. True!
My husband said we shld respect her religion. Also true!
How?
What you are doing is perfectly right ... I am very glad you did the right thing instead of following the agent. Kudos to you!Hi mummies,
my maid started her fasting today, she said she will eat if she really cannot tahan. So far so good !
I bought a lot of biscuits and always a loaf of bread at home and noodles for her to eat in the early morning. Is all these enough ? Hehehe!
First time, employ a maid so blur blur. :tlaugh:
Anyway, thank you all mummies for the advise.
you may want to let her try out brown rice for her pre-dawn meal cos this type of rice gives more energy and make her feel less hungry in the day. kudos to you for being such an understanding employerancing_wub:Hi mummies,

We should send the agent for hard labor if there is such a thing in Singapore ...
Maid is also a human being and we should be grateful that they are there to help out in the family.
Personally I despise those families whom treat their maid like a slave ... the usual common sight is whole family go to a restaurant and the maid would be left there standing/sitting while the family eats.
We are lucky to have maid in Singapore, so we should respect and treat them like a human being.
When making a decision, just put yourself in the other person shoe that is what i usually do when i am confused
Practically she will finished her tasked (eg: laundry, folding of clothes, wipe windows, mopping) by 11ish and only during fasting month we will start cooking at about 3pm.. other then that taking care of my 5yo boy - which he will play w his toys.She' too free in ur hse is it..
