hookedondhamma Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 A very stupid bunch of kids ....Agreed. One of my friends was telling me he used to do the same as a kid. Took out one of his front teeth when I made a comment about getting teeth knocked out. I asked him why, he said 'sanook.' You think some would outgrow it but apparently that isn't the case.

culicine Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Shouldn't students be expelled? Or is it just all a bit of fun for the kids, and their colleges aren't so serious about it. I'd suggest eliminating all uniforms from tertiary education, so all students become anonymous. It's hard to pick a fight when you don't know your enemy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomross46 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 It is not only Thailand. We see the same thing in all over the world. School rivals, If we can't beat you during the game, wait till after. Football clubs all over the world, Liverpool and Manchester. How about the violence in Brazil. How many time have we saw a guy get beaten up because of a girl. Violence is the nature of the beast. Red shirts and Yellow shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although fighting between rival gangs (usually school based ones or sometimes with links to criminal gangs) is common in western countries, I have yet to hear about bombs being used. That's terrorism as far as all normal people are concerned and should be treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) These vocational school rivalries heat up from time to time. I think there was some talk about one of these schools relocating as the proximity increases the clashes. The "bombs' are poppers, these get discharged at most schools, from time to time. When they make zip guns in shop class invariably innocents get wounded or killed; they love shooting at a rival who happens to be on a crowded red bus. Last year two died in a clash between Thaivichitsilp Art School and Don Muang Technical School. Back in 2010 a nine-year old boy died, again on a bus, in a clash between Bangkapi School of Technology and Bangkok School of Industrial Technology. Not sure what the HVAC guys do? Throw air-cons at each other? The women's voke schools also get into brawls occasionally. Edited June 4, 2013 by lomatopo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelticBhoy Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 The graduates from these places are all around us I'm sad to say. At our condo in Bangkok the maintenance guys are 'techno college' grads. Don't trust them one iota. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cup-O-coffee Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I am my father's son. Take that, Ministry of Education and Health, and shove it way up where the Sun doesn't shine. You ignore the underlying facts and no amount of building castles in the sky will help you achieve success in any form. Go ahead; continue ignoring the parents. Remove their responsibilities and never hold them accountable. This is what happens, you dumb louts! You cannot raise other people's kids when those kids have such poor examples of humanity to fall back on when you try to correct them; and they will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorecard Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 About time they started holding the parents responsible. And the teachers. Ask around and you'll find that at many of these 'technical colleges' there are plenty of teachers who openly encourage all of this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AnotherOneAmerican Posted June 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Where I was brought up in the USA, if you strayed onto a rival schools turf you got beaten or scarred with a razor. Wasn't much different when I left the USA last year. This isn't a uniquely Thai problem. But the bashers have to bash.

loong Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 About time they started holding the parents responsible. I know of quite a few parents that are scared of their sons. What do you suggest that parents do to control their children? Use extreme violence? Well that's a good example. Point out the errors of their ways? yes, that will work with these narcissistic teenagers. One things parents can do is exercise more control while they are still seen as the power figure, while they are still young kids. I see so many parents not set proper boundaries and will let their children get away with too much (especially the boys). They grow into young adults without learning that their actions have consequences in the real world. Then they need a short sharp shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is the fear of losing money, or losing their own liberty will quickly help the parents get over the fear of their kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Mamma Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 The false pride of rivalry. People don't have the self pride that makes gangs obsolete. It is worldwide and very territorial people are popping up en masse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bifftastic Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 ...autistic baboons...... Really? 'Autistic' is a derogatory term is it? One that you can use to describe violent thugs fighting in the street? My friend's boy is autistic, I'll be sure and pass on your recommendation that 10 years in jail should sort him out.
