erm...buds i think you should censor the pics before posting...it is after all not the kid's fault.

I thought i did? :?

I could've posted the 'full faced' pictures of the boy AND his entire family!
Which of course i didn't. :roll: Dat time my elder girl just recovered from
a mild HFMD infection from childcare where i worked.. so i was very very
upset about this un-hygienic act. Only one person seemed local. The rest,
judging from the more melodious accent which they were conversing in,
were from another country.

Then again i could post the parents close up profiles, since it's obviously
THEIR fault.... (for allowing it!) which i didn't either .... cos i'm still rational. Thankfully.....

jedamum:

as for sending to stomp etc, i think it would be better that if the act really bothers other parents, they should just approach the offender direct and tell them off. while it is unethical for them to do such biz (big biz, small biz) in public, i don't think we should be going around snapping pics of their naked kids.

JMHO.

Kids shouldn't be left naked in the first place IMO lah.
That in itself is already unethical. There are shops all
around where spare dry clothing can be purchased if
the family did not plan or did not know there's a water
feature playground for the child to play around in.. so
that the clothes child was wearing can be used for the
wet play.

Shd just send to STOMP lar... Sometimes people who are inconsiderate do not know that their behaviour is NOT ACCEPTABLE... So they need to be shamed before they will learn... Only then will there be hope of breaking the cycle. :idea:

I remembered in primary school... I went on stage twice for two very different reasons... One was for courtesy award and another was public caning for being rowdy at the school porch and disrupting peace, harmony blah blah blah etc... The caning was not painful at all but it was really more to be embarrassed in public... Only needed to do that once and thereafter, my friends and I were good as angels.

So, ermmm... shud shame the parents? :roll: Kekekeke.. :lol:

Sidetrack a bit....
Some parents allow their kids to play diving stunts in our public pool's
spa pool which i find extremely irritating as well. I've told many kids
many times to watch it. Then, realised their parents are there with them
and they do not care even a wee bit that the kids are such a nuisance.
So, really lah. Sometimes, no point to point out to the kids what more
the parents...

They find such behaviour is fine by them. :shock: :roll: :stupid:

Everyone has different way of upbringing mah.
Who's to say?

[quote=\"ZacK\"]And it;s gonna be a cycle... Becos parents are inconsiderate and they do not teach their kids the right values... Their kids will grow up having those same bad, inconsiderate values that their parents passed down to them :stupid:

Ya lor...

I agree..

But, what to do right?

Sad and angry that there are people like that..

Actually, public caning for being rowdy at the school porch does sound a bit extreme. Even during my time, to my recollection, public caning was administered only about 2 times throughout my entire 10 years in St. Andrew's (Primary and Secondary) which was notorious for our \"pai-gia\" image. And they were for misdemeanors that were far more serious than just being rowdy.

Actually it was a bit more than that... From play became shoving and pushing, then came crying cos one of the boys got pushed onto the ground and scraped his knee... And worst was the porch was just outside the principal's room... Wonder wat were we thinking back then :?

Yup, I get super angry with those stunts too, dare not imagine the serious damage if they hit into the head or backs of a tiny kid... :x :x

plus some shoving by some kids just before another kid slides down (slides at playgrounds and swimming pools) :x

I ever scolded some kiddos and bar my kids from playing when these kids are around.. my kiddos were sad and pleading but how to let them play.. Seems like accidents waiting to happen... IMO the parents and kids caught for repeated offences should be barred! Spoils the fun for everyone...

Some others... parents feeding their kiddos while they are still in water??!! :x

Idiotic parents who is wearing their filthty flip-flops and stepping at the side of the pool where the water enters the drainage thingy (duno what it is called).. :x

The amazing thing is even after they were told off by the life-guards, they still continued when out of sight of the guards!! :x :x :x
