ladies I need your advice once more DD started school this year so now I am contemplating if/how to/where to start a career. Back home I had done MBA and was enrolling fo a Ph.Dprogramme cz I wanted to continue a career in teaching. Side by side I was a member of adjunct faculty in a business school. Then I moved to Dubai. got pregnant , had DD, just got busy in kids and in Dubai social life. Now I am actually a old 'fresh grad' with hardly any experience of my field...with too narrow criteria of what kind of of job I want to do... so i am not sure...what to do in my field...i would need some internship/training to be able to do basic accounts jobs...back home i would have easily been able to get a good internship n start off my career ...after a bit i would have looked into finance sections of any education institute n voila...would have landed into an ideal job of less working hours n seasonal holidays!(if only...:) :) or i would have gone on with teaching position while continuing Ph.D...:) now what to do here in Dubai...i thought i would enroll in an EYFS program and take it from there...as in change my line of work(if there is one that is..lol) so what would u all suggest? should i enroll in an CACHE level 3 course? is it a good idea i cannot do any fully recognized primary teaching degree here i guess otherwise i would have preferred that so is there anything out there which i can do...internship /any degree which doesn't cost an arm and a leg? all suggestions are welcome

If u google learn quran online through skype you will come up with so many sites offering such service through skype. They hv qualified teachers and drafted easy to read handbooks in pdfs thru which they teach u at ur convenient time. Couple of my friends are using such services and pretty happy with it. 1 week trial is free so u can try 2 3 n find out which teacher suits u the best.

Thanks to a polite lady on the road today. I was hesitant entering a mini round about and she let me in making me realise my mistake politely without bullying me with a horn or speeding ahead after finding me hesitant amd without shaking my confidence:) So i was better than yday...no horns just a couple of cars over taking:) hopefully with all your encouragement i ll become a less annoying road user in no time. Thanks everyone

Well...the good news is that you can get to the root cause of skin provlem with food testing....bad news it is most probably Going to be dairy, gluten, tomato, potato ...citrus. I hv had eczema since a couple of years...used all the the topical steroidal ointments...but whenever i would stop using them the viscious cycle of itch-scratch- itch would start. I got the blood test done...200 plus foods were tested and the ones i had reaction against i left them for 2 months....no cheating at all....and behold...first time ever in 2 yrs i had the clearest arms, hands n legs ever without the use of even a moisturizer... There is always something internal to cause skin disorder...u just cant treat it topocally...itkeeps recurring..atleast in my case it did..i went to all the recommended skin docs in dubai.

Hijacking ur thread a lil bit...can you all share the names of the girls from helping hands who are really good and efficient...e.g mine's name is wajira and is really efficient. Has been coming to my house since a year. Just told her once initially about how i want work done and is so gud in cleaning and ironing. So Suze can u share the name of the girl which comes over to your house?

after reading the park incident told by a fellow EW and all the incidences we didnt confide in our parents ..i really want some tips on how do we go about and make our kids to confide into us .... i was just wondering how to create that environment or be a parent who understands and listens. Yet i dont want to be a mother who would just listen to all without a negative reaction leading to children doing mischief and knowing that just 'reporting' would get them out of trouble, or would make things fine.
