Doing the opposite was a lesson learned from a bad experience. Some of that for me also. Knew there were better ways.

Of course I believe it as it's all true. I don't go by opinions. Facts instead.That a few here disagree only shows their lack of knowledge on certain subjects. What does failed in Thailand mean? I have a child who I'll bring home to the US for a better life. I finally realized what a covert narcissist is, and how they suck you n. Lesson learned, won't have it happen again. Seems like I'm winning, and my daughter will also. Sometimes you have to go through sh*t before you come out on top. Leaving Thailand with her will be a victory.

Have you taken her to the US for a visit?  I have a kid here as well, a daughter, we've made 4 visits to the US. I honestly believe life is more enjoyable here in Thailand, not to mention cheaper as well. It's a tough choice.

Two years ago and this November. She loves it there, and has siblings .Better schooling and a future for her, and I can enjoy my retirement doing things I like that I can't here.

Yes, the divorce rates have climbed, domestic violence has risen, more women are becoming independent, wanting instead of needing a man, and not having to settle for boys who never grew up. Going from caveman to shared responsibilities isn't disastrous but a necessity. Those who continue to fight this, the misogynists, are the ones who women despise, and eventually leave. Women being equal is only a threat to those who look at them as objects to serve. You find a couple that really loves each other and gets along without undue fighting, especially with children, you have a couple that looks at the other as number one, where both are doing their share.

 

The number one source of a woman's happiness comes from nurturing raising and caring for her children. Not working in an office building.

There is a lot more to childless relationships than working in an office.

Most women I would say yes. Some are goal oriented and not family oriented. All comes from childhood. Also having a loving partner, more so if no children.

Statistics are subjective lies put out by people who can not do anything useful, that is why they try to be smart by collecting data which fit their bias while ignoring that which doesn't.    

These "statistic" guys do not get laid often,  and if so only by the lower third of women ..... attraction wise.   Women like men who do things,  not talk statistics .

The better schooling could be solved by relocating within Thailand to a school of your choice.

Still not as good as the norm in the US, especially where we're going in Texas. If we could leave today, we would. Thailand isn't for us. I'll get my daughter in college in Texas, and she'll earn more in a day there than a week or more here, and have a much better chance of finding a man that will stay, and won't be a statistic chance like 70% of the girls here in school are. Thailand is not a good place for females.

Thanks. I remember the Whataburger but it's been many years. They put mustard on them. So many burger places in Texas that use good beef and buns so I stick with them. My daughter keeps asking for steak, knowing we'll have them when we go at her sister's house where we're staying.

yes they do use mustard. Honestly, not having a house of your own to go back to would be troublesome to me. But, best of luck.

A controlled woman doesn't understand it because she never knew a real man in her life

And your three wives all left you leaving behind a bunch of kids from broken homes.

That you are trying to take your daughter away from her mother and her country reeks of self centered narcissism as does you continually blaming everyone but yourself.

 

No offense Fred but I will take “women advice” from people who can actually happily hang onto a wife.

Statistics prove that girls who come from broken homes are much more likely to get divorced.

It is a big red flag and should be considered if getting married.

 

Studies show that daughters of divorced parents have a 60% higher divorce rate than children of non-divorced parents, while sons have a 35% higher rate.

Where did you pull that statistic from actually Fred?

You just made it up didn’t you?

Did you again miss where I said I divorced my wife here? I also divorced the other two, and got custody of my children from the one. The other there weren't any children. Now read that again, and maybe write it down, so I don't have to remind you again. 

 

That I'm taking my daughter to a better place is priority one. That her mom doesn't give a damn about any of her three children, seeing the second one at 14 has lived with the first one on and off, and now, again in another province for the last three years, should explain how she is as a mother. 

 

I will say this also again. I never blame everyone for anything. I put the blame exactly where it sits. That you don't believe or understand what covert narcissism is, or that many women aren't good and unfit for parenting  is your problem. I'm thinking you've never had a wife or children, so that puts you in the don't get it category. if you do, then you're probably just a classic misogynist that you've shown to be, which also doesn't give you any rights to judge anyone, especially one who treats women equally and not as a slave, which is your forte, thinking doing everything is women's work. 

 

I'm also guessing that you have very little life experience, especially around women that you don't pay for, so that's another reason to not comment on people who have always treated women well. That you don't understand you can treat a women well and she can still sh*t on you also speaks volumes. 

 

You will never know as much as I do about women, because self centered is exactly what you've shown to be, and all your comments on how men aren't men if they help their women prove it in spades.

Unlike you, I research and don't listen to youtube videos biased people put up on things, especially things in another country. Stats are easy to find, and numerous IF you look....

More than 31,000 girls and women were raped in Thailand last year and about 60% of them were university students and school pupils, while alcohol use is a major contributing factor to sexual assault, academics said on Thursday.

According to the Public Health Ministry, there were 31,866 rape cases last year, or 87 cases per day on average, or one victim every 15 minutes, Supensri Puengkhokesoong, a leading member of the Women and Men Progressive Movement Foundation (WMP), said at a forum on sexual violence in Thailand. The event was organised by the government's Social Development and Welfare Department, the Thai Health Promotion Foundation and the WMP.

"Most of the women and girls were exploited by people who they were close to and trusted," Ms Supensri said............https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/general/40031638

Studies have also shown that men that come from households where the father is a dominating, controlling figure and looks at his wife as an unequal slave have sons that turn out the same. My one daughter who is married  for 12 years, very happy, to a great son in law. My son, married for 10 years, to another good partner. My other daughter, takes no sh*t from any man, and that makes sure she isn't a victim in her relationships.  Stats are there, but it depends on what the father does after the divorce, and while he's raising the children.

More than 31,000 girls and women were raped in Thailand last year 

 

So safer in the USA with P.Diddy, Weinstein, Epstein and wasnt Trump ordered to pay millions for rape?

 

In 2023, an estimated 376,038 women and 104,979 men in the United States were victims of rape or sexual assault, according to Statista. The Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN) estimates that over 433,000 cases of sexual assault or rape occur annually in the U.S. among people aged 12 and older. 

 

With that amount of men being raped over there it isn’t just your daughter you need to worry about.

Stay safe Fred.
