      Thank you for making me feel so much better to know that there are pple like you around. Its just that this morning DS told me on way to cc that he was sad, cos he said hi, good morning to a boy who came into the lift and he ignored DS. On way home in mrt, gave up seat to an elderly lady, a young man just happily take the seat and very reluctantly gave it up when i told him that the seat was not meant for him and told him to get up.

      I will think more positively and thank you.... :celebrate:
      :celebrate: to you! You have rightfully observe the rudeness of people nowadays and given your upbringing of your DS, I am sure he would not be swayed over to their side but follow your good example instead.

      For the \"hi\" incident, perhaps you can share this with your DS, when giving, don't think of the outcome. Giving is also a joy...and once you have experienced the joy..anything else is a bonus. When I say \"hi\" and \"bye\", I don't worry if people return, or feel embarassed that there is no response because saying those things actually reflects that I am in a cheery mood so don't let others spoil that.

        Singaporean nowadays after all these educations have forgotten what is being polite & basic counteousy.. You can see it anytime anywhere be it your neighbourhood, on the way to work, workplace etc



        ageed. took my girl to ballet today and the school has a small waiting area. There was this small kids IKEA table with 4 stools. This couple, Hubsand with newspaper spread over half the table, mother with MacDonald breakfast taking the opposite half.. and she has to use a 3rd stool for her Coach bag. :roll:
        Bet they did not realise how many parents were standing. Wait.. do they even care?

          Mebbe the mother thought people may
          just be gawking at her Coach bag. 😉

                Heyya JHJC,

                To answer your query...
                Hmmm... depending on my mood for the day,
                i just might. I really do not wish to be caught in a
                situation where i hafta to stoop to the \"chope-mummy's\"
                level of intelligence... We should know we're better than
                that. If i am being placed in a position where i simply can't
                stand there watching.. i will tell off in my laser-manic-mode
                until she turn red. I am usually veryyyyy nice but, i can be
                b****y if i want to... :evil: ....... and worse, when i'm in character,
                there's no way of turning back liao. :nunchuk: HAAAIIIYAH!

                Did YOU tell her off, JHJC?
                Smoke must've risen from the top of yer head... 😉

                    JHJC, (oh darn!)... was looking forward to

                    a showdown with the infamous Coach lady.
                    Tell yer boy next week dun cry.. or better
                    still, leave him with daddy.. so got chance!
                    Kekekekeh! :lol:

                    Yeah, some people can be that ignorant...
                    And usually if it isn't too bad, the rest of
                    the world will just ignore. So... what was
                    the school's response to the pressing
                    \"chope-ing\" issue at hand...(afer your feedback)?

                    It will be interesting to know a school's
                    take on such social issues.

                    Hope they put up a number line system.
                    No way anyone can \"chope\" a changing
                    room first, even before the child comes
                    out from her class.. :roll:

                      i guess this is not uncommon.
                      there are instances where after swimming lessons while queuing up to shower, i find kids coming into the toilet calling for their mum, then the toilet cubicles doors open with the already mum inside... :roll:

                        Oh, is it? I've yet to chance upon that!
                        Guess mum bent down to shower first
                        while waiting for the kiddies to come in.
                        Children's cubicles provide better gush
                        of water..
