Popular Post djeetyet Posted August 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2021 My son is doing his online testing today. Here's a Google translation screen shot of one of the questions. Kinda interesting. A woman can cook, clean, and get a job - but, let's not take things too far! (I hope this is the right forum - I couldn't find the "Farang Pub" one - please move if necessary) 2 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1FinickyOne Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 not just a woman, it would be impolite for anyone to try and instruct their parents... it would sort of be 'bossing' them around.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sherwood Posted August 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2021 I see nothing wrong with a woman educating parents. Lets face it most parents need all the education they can get, myself included. We do not always have to take it onboard. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KarenBravo Posted August 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2021 There is no such thing as "women's work", only work which can be done by anyone, which is the attitude the missus and I have. Hold everything! I'm wrong. There is definitely one task that I consider women's work. That is ironing. Yes, definitely ironing. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritManToo Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) I suspect the translation is in error. It would be nice to see the original Thai question and answers. Would think answer 4 likely "educating children". Edited August 11, 2021 by BritManToo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoreFarang Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Question somewhere in farang land: Do you have a father and a mother or two fathers or two mothers?

The men can certainly be lazy when given the chance but when they do start working they can work for hours in brutal conditions that would have 99% of farangs quitting within 15 minutes. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djeetyet Posted August 11, 2021 Author Share Posted August 11, 2021 My son is in the 6th grade attending a school that's a mixture of private and government funded (or so I have been told). Here's the original question in Thai. Maybe Google translate was a bit off? We are not sure what the "correct" answer actually was! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wife does everything, I have the life of an ATM, I just pay for everything and, it's a tuff life for some. Occasionally I play Chauffer and support her by pushing the trolley at Tesco/Lotus, actually the trolley supports me. Feeling a little thirsty at the moment, should I call out and ask her to bring me a beer, nah, better get off my rear and take the 30 steps to the fridge, my exercise for the day to the fridge and back, wouldn't wanna run her down to the ground, one has to be considerate these days as a SNAG, (sensitive new age guy)......lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
