webfact Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 3-year-old attempts DIY nose job with squid shellBy Coconuts BangkokBANGKOK: -- Hoping to achieve the national obsession with pointy-shaped noses, a 3-year-old girl in Buriram province stuffed a squid shell she found on the dinner table up her nose.The damage was discovered yesterday when the girl’s mother, Nongnapat Krajangsai, shined a light in her daughter’s nose after the child had been suffering from congestion and discovered the shell jammed in her nasal passage.She used pliers to remove the blood-stained shell, which she believes her daughter must have found at a Jan. 10 house party when they barbecued squid.Full story: http://bangkok.coconuts.co//2015/01/19/3-year-old-attempts-diy-nose-job-squid-shell-- Coconuts Bangkok 2015-01-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HeijoshinCool Posted January 19, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2015 I doubt a three-year old could contrive or later articulate such a motive. But if that is the motive, it is very sad. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djjamie Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 The link states the little girl said she wanted a pointy nose and that is why she did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taony Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 People in my family have stuff buttons and coins up there. Maybe its just a kid thing and the parents are projecting some sort of motive. The mother probably should have brought her to a doctor to have it removed though?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berybert Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 "Before they start earning grades, children in Thailand are routinely criticized about their noses." What on earth does that mean? I think, and its only my opinion, it means the soon they start earning grades = the sooner they start to lie and cheat. As this begins to happen like Pinocchio their noses start to get bigger.

NongKhaiKid Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 "Before they start earning grades, children in Thailand are routinely criticized about their noses." What on earth does that mean? Maybe not having a ' proper ' nose means you can't get what you should from the trough which leads us into the fact you don't get near the trough unless your face fits ! Sorry about that. Oh my brain hurts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toybits Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 This is the direct result of how adults values are affecting those of their children. If children are made to think at a very young and tender age that having a less than pointy nose is undesirable - the child's mind would be forever believe that lie. I pity the child for having had to go through this ordeal. People's values need to change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubbaJohnny Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Where could such a motive occur,we can ardly blame falangs or schools with a toddler,perhaps copying mum which is common when little girls use make up high heels etc in my limited experience. The only other explanation could be tv or some cartoon/line video showing other similar behaviour,the possibility that such behaviour is genetic can be discounted otherwise we would see foolish danerous behaviour in social life on the highways choice of role models etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alwyn Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 a 3 year old would only learn nonsense like from her mother. Maybe they've been ribbing her about her button nose or she hears the mum constantly whining about her own nose.. Amazed that people can do that to their children. I have a mixed race niece who at the age of 10 or so was trying to pour herself a bath of bleach to make her skin white... This was as a result of stuff at school. This thing with the nose isn't.

Mot Dang Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 This is not funny you who ever penned this crap. The 3 year old was not Hoping to achieve the national obsession with pointy-shaped noses. A lot of young kids poke things up their noses or in their ears, most without doing any harm. I certainly don't agree with the mother doing her own olfactory operation, but probably panicked. Who ever wrote this piece of so-call journalism may take a different view if a close child of theirs went thru this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like some crazy story a parent came up with to deflect from the fact that they weren't watching their child. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
