Unfortunately , almost every day I see kids on bikes that are still not yet in their teens. No Licence , no helmet etc. If I were a parent I would not let my child on a bike until he was old enough to have a licence and had a decent helmet as a minimal requirement. 9 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RotBenz8888 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 They are causing serious danger to themselves and others, but seem totally unaware. Send them to "the front" in Pattani for 2-3 years maybe that'll teach them something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post darksidedog Posted June 5, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2019 For a parent to lose a child is something incredibly painful. I tried with my kids to bring them up as sensibly as I could, which meant spending long hours talking about the dangers of driving like an idiot as fast as possible. While my heart goes out to her in her moment of loss, this boys mother would have done well to have done the same. And the same goes for every parent out there with a youngster running wild on a bike they don't really know how to control. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is heartbreaking... try as you might as a parent once a child enters their teens other influences often take precedent. This has to be every parents greatest concern. These are kids from families... yet there will always be an element of schadenfreude in many posts as these kids are often a great nuisance. The Police have their work cut out... but the main issue is the Police don't do a great deal apart from a crack down on Vibhavadi once every 2 years and ever other year a crack down on Bang-na-trad... the net a few kids, confiscate a few bikes and walk away thinking their job is done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it a step further... As a parent I am doing my best to educate my child that bikes are dangerous unless ridden by someone with a lot of road experience, which means plenty of years driving first. The reality is we can do the best job possible to educate our children, but we can't make all their choices for them and teens can be extremely determined - as parents we have to hope we have guided them and educated them towards being sensible young men. There may be some failings as a parent, but how many of us were lucky in our late teens that we did not succumb to a car accident in our home countries? I remember racing round the lanes at age 17-18 years old - thats not through poor parenting, thats just teens been teens and perhaps a degree of poor policing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoreFarang Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I guess he knew the risk but he thought he is invincible. I also thought that when I was a little younger. Death is part of the risk. Would he drive like that again? I would bet: Yes! RIP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kids parents would have been riding motorbikes with no helmets or safety gear as soon as they were able to stand up. There are no risks involved in Thailand until its to late and then it doesn't matter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
