Go home for what reason? To see the old parents and take care of them? No more parties, no more entertainment? Obviously, some do that. But it seems to me they do it mostly because they are old themselves and/or run out of money to afford Pattaya and parties.

It seems the most important question is if they have wealth. If yes, then it seems nothing else matters. It seems to me most villagers look up to people with money, a nice house, a big pickup, and all that. And then many send their daughters to places like Pattaya to get the same. TiT.

All of above. Personally, I live in Sukhumvit in Bangkok. These days I don't go out as much anymore as I used to. Do I move? No. Because I am familiar with where I live, and I like it. If I would move, then obviously it should be a "better" place. But better in which way? Quiet with fewer restaurants? A place with fewer young people and more old people? Maybe a village up country? All this doesn't sound better to me. And I am pretty sure with many girls who lived in Pattaya it's the same. Why move to a less exiting place?

Obviously, it's nice to have relevant links ready. But what if we read books years ago, saw videos from experts, etc. and don't have the quotes or links ready? In our lives we learn a lot, sometimes we revise what we learn and sometimes we verify what we know already. In this case I learns about parents how children learn and grow up over more than 30 years. Should I now try to find somewhere an article about what I know? Obviously, I could search the internet and post a link or two. But let's say I find a 30min video which seems to explain the situation. Should I watch it first to make sure I agree with all of it? And then there is obviously the question how much time I want to spend doing research for a forum like this. It's not that I have to prepare for a court case to win. So, I will continue to write about what I know, and maybe add some links or quotes, but I don't feel compelled to do that all the time.

That brings another quote to my mind, I don't know who said it first. There is an easy solution for every complex problem. And most of the time it is wrong.

Good post. I think the anger is often fired up by some politicians who want angry people not to think too much. And it obviously works.

Everyday rice meals, like many Thais eat, are cheap in Thailand.

It seems many of those little people are angry. And they want strong-men solutions like getting rid of all those bad immigrants who only take their jobs. It does not really matter if that is true or not, if they are angry, they don't think too much and vote for easy solutions.

In case you have metal pipes, then those can have rust inside and that might clock valves or something like that.

Starmer does what is best for the UK. Would it make sense for him to tell everybody what an ahole Trump is? No. That's why he doesn't do that. Apart from that, Trump is obviously an ahole and everybody knows that.

It seems many women like to compare themself to other women. And often enough they compare themselves to the unreal online presentations of other women like Instagram ,etc. And it seems a lot of women make the fatal mistake that if they have a friend with big breast, and that friend has lots of admirers, then they conclude: It must be the big breast of her. But maybe the other woman just smiles more, or she has a nice body and great hair or whatever. But all that is not noticed, it must be the big breasts... And then, when she gets herself big breasts, and the other one still gets more attention, what then?

qed

Convince her not to do it - for several reasons. It seems common for women to want bigger breast to feel more confident. And if they just made them bigger, then maybe they feel more confident - for a week or two, or maybe even months. And then? The bigger breasts obviously didn't change anything, so her confidence will go back to normal. And then? Maybe more bigger breast? Or a nose job or botox or this or that. There is always something she can do, and the advertisement and social media will tell her that will make her feel better. It wont! Apart from that, it seems there is never something like a one-time breast job. It seems they all do it again after a while. If you need material to convince her, I would look for videos where women explain what they hoped for and what actually happened. And last but not least, if she absolutely insists on doing it, then make sure she does it in a reputable clinic and not one of those incompetent unlicensed butcher shops.

There is an easier solution. I put you on my ignore list and I won't see any of your comments anymore. Win/Win.

I also like to wake up with the sun. And fresh markets and places where Thai people eat before work are already busy at that time.

At least you could have used a picture with network cables...

He wanted to show how educated he is. And then he wanted to help us not so educated to be able to understand him. Wow, he must be really smart. 😉

Next thing you ask me to explain to you why the earth is not flat. No, I won't explain that to you and other things which are obvious.

Do you really expect from me to work for you for free? Pay me enough and I might consider trying to educate you.

Everybody knows what woke means, only the woke somehow pretend not to understand it. If you have to explain to people that you are not a he or a she and you insist you are they then you are woke. Just one of those examples.

What is so difficult to understand about the word normal couple? Man and woman can have babies together, and they did that for millions of years. That is normal. It's not so difficult.

And obviously in your wisdom you know how I was educated. Nuff said.

I agree it is not black and white. I think children should be in as good as possible solutions. If the parents split up, that is obviously not good. But it happens. As far as I know, but I am far away from up to date, in many countries children can only be adopted by couples, until recently hetero couples. Single people would not be able to adopt children. Why? It's obvious. So if a child has the chance to be adopted by a father and mother, then that is how it should happen. I don't know how many children are out there for adoption and no couple wants them. Then obviously second-best options should be considered.

So now it's hate-speech when I state facts. Interesting. I guess you would imprison me and reeducate me if you could do that.

That's why I make informed comments. 😉
