same thing went thru my mind when i read it this morning... haiz...

Yes agree. Condolence to the family.

Also.... it makes me wonder how to ensure my kids get out of such uninvited trouble???? Eg. last week my P2 boy saw a man eating on the bus, he kept looking at the man and told me loudly.... why is that man eating on the bus,etc...

So what should I teach him???? Keep low profile and mind his own business???? :? In case he is too garang and he will invite unnecessary troubles to himself :?

Agree....how huh....I am lost too[/quote]Hmm...
\"Ah Boy, want to fight/be garang... make sure you confirm win... or be policeman when you grow up. Else, better learn how to run faster.\"

I think in secondary school, they should introduce a new subject to teach students about the law, so that the youngsters would be aware of the consequences of their actions.

Sometimes, the young and restless do not think before they act, or worse still not aware of the consequences.

Doesn't mean that we don't see means that there isn't any. All may be calm and peaceful but things are not what it is under the surface of society.


DS1 related this incident to me when he first joined the force.

DS1 was on patrol one night when he stopped a car to do a routine check. As he was talking to the driver, DS1 noticed a newspaper-wrapped parcel at the bottom of the driver's seat.

DS1: Can you tell me what's that under your seat?
Driver: It's not mine. It's my friend's
DS1: Can you show me what it is?
Driver took out the parcel and unwrapped it revealing some parangs.
DS1: What's this? Are you going for a show down?
Driver: No Sir, these are not mine, they're my friend's
DS1: Ok then, you call your friends here and I'll call mine.

DS1 always says this: 'Mum, you know why you are sleeping peacefully every night? It's cos I'm working at night to ensure that.' :love:

I always teach my boys to be humble and not fight for 'face'. It's ok to let others win. If they are confronted, it's better to apologize and leave than to argue cos these people won't listen to reason. In fact, they are bully and to prove that they are 'one up', they'll resort to violence. Yes, this is also due to education. We always reap what we sow. Hollywood and Hong Kong movies have been feeding us violence and bloody scenes for the past 2 decades. Our children are exposed to virtual violence since young. Now is harvest time. :gloomy:

Shocking, tutormom! :shock:


Is your son with the police force?

Agree with duriz - your son sounds like a really decent, responsible and family loving chap. Great husband material! You've done well bringing hi up this way. :celebrate:

then again, the ah bengs' may not be in school enough to learn / hear / understand it...

i think a good character has to be built before they enter their teenage years. At least, the chances of them swaying to the dark side is significantly minimized if they can determine whats right and whats wrong...

We can't be there all the time for them...

These hooligans should be rounded up and given a good thrashing. My heart still aches for the victim’s family.

yeah I agree same goes for all the terrorists... for fraction of moments satifaction they spoil the whole life

Terrorists think of only themselves.
How come this group of hooligans are carrying choppers around ? Isn't it obvious they are out to create trouble ??? Age and a sense of belonging may be their reasons but I don't think any parents raise a 19 year old to be chopped up.

One of the suspect now in ICU…Injured his head while trying to escape from the police…
