So get mad to her and tell her to stop or you will divorce her. You don't have a functional family anymore at this stage.

Why would that mean that his party would be in the oppostion?

Don't marry a bar girl (with 3 years of schooling) then but somebody you can talk with.

No legal entity, not registered, not paying tax. Hardly rocket science.

Chiang Mai is very nice in general but horrible during the burning season.

My oldest worked 2 months while on holiday between M6 and University too. They do chores and save a lot.

Yes, it is my life style choice. Rent is not expensive for a 2 story, 6 room house with garden, close to schools and work in BKK.

My electricity bill has been over 6800 the last 2 months and I pay directly to the electricity company (in BKK). 10 year old 3000, 18 year old 5400 thb spending money per month. Rent 25000 per month for a house. That is already over 40K and only a few costs.

There are predators (snakes), on average every 15 minutes a call involving snakes in Bangkok.

Street stalls.

It does for people who have unofficial businesses, was in an research article about KYC and banks in Thailand about a year ago. don't have the link anymore.

You forget that a lot of Thai people who trade don't have a bank account because it takes too long to get one.

Bangkok Bank (in Bangkok)

Looks like it didn't work for the first 14 years. Saying that woman can't do this is ridiculous.

Ever heard of a will?

Indeed. Did an online transfer yesterday of 50K, had to do biometric identification. App told me to remove my (reading) glasses, then the transfer got the Go ahead. Works great.

Stay civil doesn't include to file a police report, so the police has to help to get your son back home. Do you really think that will make a good impression on him. My mind is quite ok, got 2 kids, 11 and 18 who adore me and do well at school. I could teach them in IT (am head of project management at a multinational) making a lot more than 100K but I let them choose what they like. Oldest one is going to study economics next month. Have several long talks with your son to see what he likes, dislikes and what his issues are. Spend some quality time with him on things he likes.

You don't have a good relationship otherwise you don't need to file a police report. Have a good look at yourself before calling people a troll

You won't be a good parent if he hates you. You blame him and the mother, ever thought what the real reason is why he runs away the whole time? He will never get that job in this state of mind because he will skip school too if he doesn't like you.

Thought it was the OP

Do you think to get the police involved to get your son back will give you a better relationship with him? He will hate you for it. Dumb move.

Like said before, the legal part is not important in this case. You need to try everything to get a good relationship with your son.

Have a private Thai insurance through work and they always pay. Also have Social Security and will keep paying into that after retirement.
