Who in their right mind would want to live in an isolated village with twins. You, the twins and the Thai family have all got the best of both worlds. I dont know any man that could look after twins fulltime. You do a great job. I think your amazing and courageous.

Alot of men and I'm sure rickey can do but thankfuly for him he has the supportive thai family helping .. it take a village pardon the pum

It's good that you have the family helping you out with the kids. My family (in the US) helped me out in raising my 4 kids by myself. I couldn't have done it without them. If people are calling you a coward they have absolutely no idea how difficult it is to raise children alone. Eff' those winkers

I'm so happy to hear how well you are doing. It's great you have an amazing relationship with the Thai family. You've made a lot of hard decisions since Eid passed, and you are doing a great job. It's not easy going through what you've been through, and you've handled it with great maturity. You can be very proud of yourself. Take care, Ricky ❤

You are facing challenges that most westerners have never even thought of and will never face themselves. Sadly, family values in the west are shot. You're doing the best you can. Honoring your late wife by keeping her family in the twin's life is important and is what's best for the twins. Ignore the criticism and don't feel obligated to explain how you're doing things. When all is said and done, it's your life and the twins are your kids. I think you're doing great! Thanks for sharing your life with us.

If you look back at where you and the girls are now, then you will see that you are doing a great job. You and the family-in-law are doing an awesome job! Always be positive, enjoy the twins.

Brigitte L Jones. The day you pushed through with Daisy is what all new good parents (without experience) find with their babies and learn to accept they have their "crabby patches" and activities which will work later.👍🏻 Your are well on your way to becoming a great & realistic parent. Let no one tell you otherwise. Besides these cheeky twins will have new developmental stages that at first will make your head spin, until you take a deep breathe and calm yourself in accepting that's typical toddler behaviour and deal with it like you did with Daisy. You have natural good parenting style.✨

In the village you could live with the family for free. The girls will also be closer to their Thai family at all times, so you can more easily go off with your beautiful gf. Perhaps you could reconsider staying alone in the city? No matter what you do, you're doing a great job. I'm 44, never had children and connot imagine ever becoming a father. Let alone fathering twins. Keep up the good work mate.

I think you did everything right and you could not have stayed in the village or the house for your mental health.

I am thankful you have a lovely lady in your life and you are good for each other. I also think the girls have the best of both worlds, the family, the house and the village with their Moms upbringing and then you and your girlfriend and Mom and Dad and family in Australia. They will have a great upbringing between you all.

Brigitte L Jones. You understood the Thai family correctly. Your moving out turns out to have been a good decision. The shared care of the twins is perfect for you, the twins, Thai family and your relationship with the girl friend(for establishing a new relationship). While you'd manage sole care of the twins, it wouldn't be easy or pleasant. Actually a stupid thing when the Thai family want to and able to share the load. The greatest beneficiaries of this set up is the twins, by having a less stressed Dad part time, & him getting to know the girlfriend in this happier context, a non anxious Thai family having them enough & the twins even getting individual time with everyone. The situation is ideal for the twins as they have been made used to this set up from very early on.

Great update, mate 🙏

Do what’s best for you and your kids in your current situation. You’re young and on your own, none of your own family or friends around and you can’t communicate that well with Eid’s family yet.

Ricky, you are doing nothing wrong! In fact I would say you are doing everything right so far. It's so easy for keyboard experts to negatively comment or even criticise from their armchair perspective, but they are not in your unique situation. Your girls brains are developing at speed, it will be difficult for you to keep up with their progression. You will just start to understand their crying patterns and then it will all change again. There is no one size fits all solution to this, you will adapt as they change over time. I give you a 10 out of 10 for your decision making to date considering what you have had to deal with. Your girls are learning how to gain responses, you are learning how to respond to their crying, a pattern develops. It's normal. Keep up the good work, enjoy e ery moment.

Don't mistake because Ricky needs sometimes for him.

It’s not easy to be a father period. Having twins is double the work. Doing it without a wife 4X harder. Glad to see you are progressing nicely and raising your children. Are you doing everything perfect? Probably not but no parent is perfect. Most important thing is your children are healthy and you doing your best to give them a happy life. Hopefully you can find someone who can serve as a surrogate nana for babies. Wages are not very high in Thailand and will help open up your time to earn income while getting help with your babies. My great respect to you. If I was in your shoes I would be scared raising those babies alone.

Just a thought...why dont you talk with the landlord and write a longterm lease without a date. Just you both might have 3 month notice if you wanna move or the owner need it back. Less stress that way and you can feally make it your home ! I think the Thai family saw how you were strugfling after your wides passing and just consern you living alone with the twins was gonna be too much for you. They seem like very nice caring ppl.

THEY ARE TOO YOUNG TO BE TOLD YOU HAVE TO HANG OUR WITH AUSSIE GRANDMA TO CATCH UP WITH YOU. THEY ARE OLDER BABIES DEPENDANT ON WHAT LIFE/ROUTINES HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED - AND DEPEND ON IT. YOUR MOTHER IS STILL GOING BACK TO OZ. SO ON ONE DAY PICK UP TWINS IN THE MORNING, STAY OVERNIGHT AND THE NEXT DAY TILL LATE NOON, THEN TAKING THEM BACK - DOING THIS TWICE A WEEK . LET MUM VISIT THE THAI FAMILY'S PLACE TO SEE THEM THE REST OF THE TIME. I have been wanting to say this for ages. I am a retired social worker who has experience with early developmental needs and can recognise a great working situation and the harm disrupting it too much can do.
