Elaine Ng Reflects on Her Harsh Parenting
Following many celebrities who are doing live selling, Elaine Ng (吳綺莉) is also joining the trend. While chatting with viewers on her latest livestream, she admitted that she was too harsh on her estranged daughter Etta Ng (吳卓林) in the past.
Since Etta married Canadian social media personality Andi Autumn in 2018, they have been struggling financially to make ends meet. Although they lived briefly with Elaine, the couple moved to Canada after frequent arguments. Etta and Andi were sighted in October 2022 lining up for free food on the streets of Toronto, looking tired and listless.
Despite Etta having completely cut contact with Elaine, the actress still shows love for her. Self-reflecting on her controlling parenting style, Elaine candidly shared that she did not allow her daughter to do many things, which caused Etta to hold great resentment. After much conflict, Elaine realized she needed to let her daughter go and explore herself. Without experiencing the world herself and making mistakes, Etta would not learn and grow.
Hearing Elaine admit her mistakes, many netizens express their sympathy for the single mother who had to manage teenage rebellion and raise Etta alone after her affair with Jackie Chan (成龍) ended. In her previous interviews, Elaine always insisted that she has no regrets on her past relationships but feels that the children involved are the most innocent. As their past cannot be changed, Elaine can only hope Etta will forgive her harsh parenting and they will reconcile again soon.

I may not be a fan of Elaine Ng…but I do feel for her being a single mum. She clearly love her daughter and tried her best but there are lessons to learn…and she is reflecting on them. Ultimately, Etta Ng is the person who has to due all her childhood issues and being abandoned by her own father is one of the biggest cause.
