A teenage pregnancy has led to a fierce conflict between families in Nakhon Sawan, Thailand. A 15-year-old girl's mother, Phatcharee, clashed with her daughter's boyfriend’s sister, On-anong, at Nakhon Sawan Hospital on December 20th. A viral video captured the fight, which ended when a hospital staff member intervened.

 

Phatcharee explained that she was visiting her daughter, who had just given birth. She demanded a wedding with her daughter's 18-year-old boyfriend, but his family cited financial difficulties. Despite this, On-anong attempted to take sole custody of the baby, intensifying tensions.

 

On-anong claimed her family couldn't afford the requested dowry of 100,000 baht in cash and 86,000 baht in gold. She acknowledged wanting the baby to stay with her for better care but denied seeking sole custody.

 

 

Tensions worsened when On-anong expelled Phatcharee and her family from their home, accusing them of not contributing to household chores. The animosity grew further as Phatcharee allegedly cursed On-anong’s ill son.

 

Legal actions followed the conflict. Phatcharee filed complaints at Meuang Nakhon Sawan Police Station and against the boyfriend for sexual assault. According to Thai law, sexual assault of a minor under 18 can result in a prison sentence of two to ten years and a fine between 4,000 and 20,000 baht.

Interesting.  Probably not the best idea to attack the mother of your brother's under 18 girlfriend, nor try to steal their baby.  Multiple charges could be faced by the family now.  Poor baby doesn't stand a chance.

Kids should be tutored in school on how to film live incidents......most of the footage I see posted is atrocious.

It seems to be all about the money and little to do with love. Demands a wedding and when no dowry is available reports the father for sexual assault.

The son had the pleasure... but now the family claim poverty and no responsibility.

If the mother cannot have finances to bring up the baby then grandmother will have blood

Amazingly she didn’t cry sexual abuse until after the birth and the fight. Just a young girl and family upset about the money. No real thought about the poor child. This will not be a happy ending for any of them.

I may be reading this wrong, but it sounds like the boy's family owned the house they were living in.  

 

Dowries, while in some cases, they are not that important, in this case, they could be very well. 

 

We all know that Thai males can not be trusted to stay faithful. Especially an 18-year-old.  The family is poor, and if the boy does a runner, then the girls and family are left with nothing,  

 

The gold, more so probably than the money, is to ensure that the daughter has a chance to raise the child properly the money again looks after the baby if he is not able to provide.

 

I am willing to bet that when the cops come to arrest him, he will be more than willing to pay.
