  1. My friend was hit with the exact same scam a couple of years ago. Told she wasn't allowed to even tell her husband or they'd both be arrested and her kid thrown into care. Looking back, it's absurd but at the time it was absolutely terrifying for her. Fortunately she didn't pay. 

     

    I'm sure I get many scam calls but once I come out with, "Eh up mate, do ya speak English?" they put the phone down.

  2. See screenshot from my service provider. This could be the reason. FWIW I pay £60/year and get excellent service. Have multiple versions of each channel (4kUHD, FHD, FHD 50fps, HD  & SD). Plus the usual abundance of movies and series. HD Prime is absolute garbage compared to this service. In addition, also has live football from every league match in the English and Scottish pyramid.

  3. Christ Church at the corner of Sathorn Road and Convent Road is your best bet. That's a Church of England church. There's also Holy Redeemer Catholic Church on Soi Ruamrudee close to Ploenchit BTS.

  4. I have the exact same symptoms. Started out with a sore throat and aching joints. Then a day later coughing started and throat got worse. 

    Gradually my throat got better but coughing has become really bad.

    Hospital tested for flu, covid etc etc and xray for pneumonia. Diagnosed with bronchitis and given a ton of medication.

    You are confusing abuse, fear and violence with discipline.

     

    There are no studies that show children who were smacked as a form of discipline, not abused or victims of physical violence, grow up to be violent or with the view violence and abuse towards children is OK.

    Confusing abuse and fear with discipline. I can't imagine a child who is regularly 'spanked' as their sole form of discipline, lacking in fear of that parent. Sure it might change the child's behaviour, but at what cost? If somebody were to regularly hit me, I'd be pretty scared of them. 

     

    As for no research... Here's some bedtime reading for you.

    This study totally refutes everything you say. https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/corporal-punishment-and-health

    "Parents who were physically punished as children are more likely to physically punish their own children."
