pinky:
maybe this photo is the only possession that she has of her son. She has mentioned that the abductor should be able to recognise the face so maybe her intention is to appeal to the abductors to release her son.SAHM_TAN:
[quote=\"pinky\"]I read a very touching story recently from the chinese papers about a mother from China whose son was abducted when he was a baby more than 10 years ago. She left her village and travelled around China searching for him.She composed a song about how she missed him and showed his photos to whoever she came across and gathered to hear her singing in the hope that the abductor will released him and send him back to her. So sad and really, a mother's love knows no bounds and so is her sorrows too...
I wish mother and son will be reunited one day ..

More than 10 yrs, show bb pic, doubt anyone would recognise since child would be 10plus liao
But abducted kids are being sold and resold at times so maybe her chances are slim but then, she has been travelling around for so many years, must be very painful for her too...
[/quote]ya know she would not have another pic. Doubt the abductor only abduct her child, dunno whether he/she still remember.
It could be her to way to deal with her pain, by trying to find her child. -

I told mine to bite... I said to bite till got blood. Very paranoid hor... I am so paranoid that the only time when I got angry with my building contractor was when he built something that I thought would fall on my kids and kill or injure them. Poor man had never seen The Evil Mother before and he got a shock that day. When my daughter was born, a cousin who visited coughed next to her pram. He got an earful from a tearful new mother with pain in her nether regions and not enough sleep. He too (after so many years) had never seen the The Evil Me.
Very very evil. -
Wow, some of you folks really wrap your kids up in cotton wool!

Better be safe than sorry!

I just came back from Shanghai last Thursday. While my hubby works, we went out on our own ! Taking the trains and even joined a day trip out to SuZhou ! It was my first time to China and come to think of it, I was alone with my 8 yrs old son the first time in another country !

Scary ! ha h ah never think of it ! ha ha ha
Just sharing my experience here, and just realised how blessed and protected we are ! Thank God ! YES, I pray fervently for blessed journey and protection for self and son in CHina !
Just to share some safety cautions hubby always taught and mentioned to me.
( his job entails him to travel a lot )
1. never leave yr bag to \"chop\" seat in another country ! We should not do this in our own country too ! There are too much other foreigners around !
2. never walk in small allay, just cause its a short cut !
3. ALways walk in broad daylight where there are a lot of people.
4. use a clutch bag. If using a haversack, put it in front of you.
5. HOLD our son's hands !
- additions of my own ! -
- my son must always use the ladies toilet if we're out on our own,
I DONT care that other ladies complain ! I do explain to my son my reason.
- If I ever hold his shoulders, he must always stay close to me !
And never shirk away ! Refering to CHina traffic ! Its scary !
- He must always tell me if he ever wanna go anywhere, except by my side !
- When I call for him, he must immediately answer and run to me !
- When I say, he can only play at a certain area where I can see him !
He must be only at that area !
- If I ever sense danger or potential danger for my son, my face and demeanour changes instaneously no matter the situations or country !
( i'll make sure that \"potential \" danger will sense danger from me ! )
ha ha ha ha ah ah a a -
:lol:
,
be it in spore or foreign land, there is nothing to be scared of even if it is just you and kids.
just exercise some common sense and not court trouble. we dont need to restrict the movements of kids but just keep a firm watch on them. in a way, we are also teaching our kids the skills of survival on the street.
if we are scare of all things, we might well just stay in the house, have multiple locks on doors and windows etc.

when you are using a handphone in China, make sure you are leaning against a wall where you can see people coming from both sides. Never call while walking bec your handphone will be snatched away (esp if it is the expensive type). This was an advice given to my husband while on biz trip in China by a local Chinese there.

This was about 6 yrs ago. I travelled to China by myself to meet up with my fren and to stay in her apartment while I tour parts of China. I found that when I need help and ask the locals, most will not answer me or treat me as invisible. Only very few would answer my query. I thought they were rude till I was in Nanjing. I was walking to the bus or train station when I heard someone trying to get my attention. I turned around and there were 2 female locals. They stood on each side of me and told me their sob story of not having enough money to take a bus/train back to their hometown. I told them I did not have much money on me but they kept pleading. I was all alone and the stretch of road was not crowded during that time, so I took some cash from my wallet and gave it to them.
They kept thanking me and even asked me for my add so that they can return me the money. I said don't need and I also dare not give. After that I quickly made my escape and walk quickly to the bus/train station. Even though they mentioned that they needed the money to take a bus/train, they did not go the same path as I. Anyway I suspected they just wanted to get the money. I just treat it as giving them protection money. I was thinking if they were really out to cheat me, they might have some gang members hiding around as well.
I know I'm very imaginative :rotflmao:
After that I understand why when I was trying to ask for help no local stopped to answer my question. They must have thought I wanted to cheat them. -
Now I understand why some of the locals just ignored me when I try to ask for directions ! A few times actually! And I was pissed off !
One particular incident, I was walking with my son trying to walk towards French Concesssion. Stopped two young guys ( wearing business clothes ) trying to get some help. One plainly ignored me ! And another stop to help ! Being SIngaporean and Chinese I expressed my dissatisfaction :rant: w the other guy, but his friend who's more polite ask me politely how I need help ! This guy's probably smarter ! Seeing that I'm holding a map and a kid in tow !
His friend a real idiot ! But now I understand his reaction.
However, most of people are very friendly and willing to help !
