Don't get your test wrong? How will participants be chosen. Send them north and south. Different answers.

Funnily enough, my son's social teacher was talking quite a lot of bad things about this government. 

Sadly, I had to tell my son, if the teacher asks a question to say quite bluntly. 

My mum says it's to dangerous for us to talk about that subject. 

One wrong word could have dire consequences so I'm teaching him young. 

I do understand you and what you are doing may be right...and of course he is your son, you do what you believe is right for him...but, philosophically, I wonder how much effect that will have have on his decision making later on in life when/if faced with 'dangerous' ideas? Please don't misunderstand me, I am not suggesting I'd do something else (my 4 children are all over 40 years of age now and not in Thailand), I just think it is a sad day for free speech when mum and dad have to tell their children to be careful what they say. It will be your son's generation who will have to cope with whatever legacy this government leaves behind. I hope he and the other children do well. Thanks for the chat, anyway.

My son is 12, so he's too young to be talking politics . It's illegal to teach politics in the west if it is taught in a way that favours or disfavour any current political party.  

My son already had written in his report that he did not love his country. Strangely the children at his school that favoured the school party preference got GPA of 3.9 and up. Other children like my son got 3.5 or under. 

And yet none of the first group could pass a single entrance test. But my son got top 10 in every test and luckily won a full scholarship. I have first hand experience of the way teachers are punishing parents through the children. A low GPA can prevent your child from any future prospects of jobs or studies.

It is the rich that have made this mess. The poor are sick of dying for them only to be dumped when it's time to share the fruits. I think the poor are saying "you made your bed now lay in it "

People like Buddha isara and several prominent government supporters are all in prison now. Let the rich lose their kids and businesses and freedom for democracy! !!!

Why do the poor have to do all the hard work all the time.

The biggest group of respondents – 52.2 per cent – cited its economic failure as the government’s weakest area.

Money ?  The fact that anyone had any expectations of a better life under a prolonged military seizure of government is completely mind boggling.    The last four years has been girls I mean government gone wild.  No oversight of civil services because there is no oversight of an unelected, military seized government.    Prayuth, with Suthep's help. wants to be the tack door pm.  Suthep will have to debate for the cowardly general, and he will lose.
