You might be surprised how many mothers kill their children. Like the mother who drove her three kids to a lake, and made the car go into and sink the lake and drowned them. I can’t imagine the thoughts in the children’s minds when they realized what what happening to them……done to then by their own mother. Or mothers who drown their kids in the bathtub. Drowning seems to be a favourite with for women to get rid of children. And then there’ Casey Anthony…. Simply horrifying and evil.

Huh ? That was almost a quarter century ago. Is this a joke of some kind?

Kids drown in swimming pools also. They must be taught to swim.

I might be wrong, but I bet a lot less would drown if they knew how to swim. You don’t need professional swimming classes. Anyone who knows how to swim can teach a kid to swim. Just like anyone who knows how to read can teach reading. (I taught my own three children to read fluently before they started grade 1 using a $30 book on phonics) I would have taught them how to swim myself, but we had a YMCA just a bit of a drive away. They learned how to swim shortly after beginning to walk. They even had “water babies” classes before that.. to learn to relax in 10 foot deep water and roll over on their back and float. A life saving skill for babies. Parents could teach their kids to swim in any shallow slow moving little river or creek. You do not need a swimming pool. When I became a parent….to me the most important responsibilities was, make sure they learn to swim, make sure they learn to read, make sure they learn to safely cross the street, make sure they say “No” and run from strangers, make sure they respect the police, make sure they learn to floss and brush and care for their teeth. And get them regular health checkups.

People who don’t want to make sure their children become excellent swimmers when they begin to walk, shouldn’t be having kids. ESPECIALLY if they live near water. It only takes two or three minutes for tragedy to happen in water to a child who does not know drown-proofing or how to swim. Or ANYONE who doesn’t know drown-proofing or know how to swim. There is not much sadder than pulling the limp, lifeless, not breathing body of a little boy or girl out of the water, And then the family has to make funeral arrangements.

I also don’t know who Mark Gorda was. Who was he? Was he on here? Sorry about his passing in any case. Namo Buddhaya ???????? ☸️

I guess I’m not a sheep. I’ve always had a bit of a rebel streak in me. I get some flack for not going along with the crowd and for not being submissive. Oh well.. too bad.

If he is not a Thai citizen with voting rights, he should keep his nose out of Thai politics. No business getting into it. He should keep it to himself or go back to Germany. HOWEVER….if he has obtained Thai citizenship, pays Thai taxes, and votes in Thai elections… then okay… he has the right to complain.
