I also agree tt flashing was quite a trend last time. Yah, I found that quite childish, but would never dare to laugh & point lah! Sekali he grab my hand to touch him how?! :nailbite:

Are perverts still flashing their members to teenagers these days on public transport, toilets, etc.? Molestations on public buses were very common in the 80s. I encountered a few times also.

I remembered that time flashing was quite a trend :rotflmao: you know we discussed and decided that we should just laugh and point at them instead of shying away...just like in Stephen Chow's movie

Not sure if there are more sickos nowadays. My impression - always that MANY!

Sleepy,


The world can be more dangerous than you thought, especially for girls.

My DH mentioned that during his time studying abroad, a quarter of century ago, already quite happening hor. A couple of PSC female scholars had local Angmo boyfriends (blue collar folks but very handsome, one was a brick layer another was a plumber). Two ended getting pregnant and had to get married then. One didn't dare to let her parents know and never went home during holidays. Everyone chipped in money to help the young couple buy milk power and diapers.

For boys, the temptation is there, and without discipline and parents guidance, very easy to go astray. Sexual promiscuity is a problem.

Although 99% may turn out well, the risk is always there. Nightmare scenario - 男的吸毒、滥交，女的堕胎, and we are talking about those brilliant scholars with bright future.

MrsKiasu:

Oh dear that is dangerous..more sickos nowadays due to pressurize livings?

I had one encounter during a short stint of working experience while waiting for my results. I was on night shift quite frequently then and our company always used this taxi service.. And the taxi driver, omg, at my father's age, always asked me to go out in the afternoons, when picked me up from work place to my home at night always asked me go supper with him and I remembered there was one time I fall asleep in the taxi and he brought me to the porridge place for supper..whoa I feel like crying then. I guessed I was lucky again leh..this curly hair, middle aged uncle didn't me to quiet place :yikes:

you will definitely prevent them from learning how to watch out for and deal with any situations that happen to them. How would you feel, and how would you have developed, if your parents had done that to you?

You have never encountered any molesters or stalker?

Maybe I just happen to be very suay in that aspect. I even had two encounters of being flashed. I made police report :rant: I wish my parents were more protective and escorted me everywhere especially when I was younger and stupider.

I don't think I'm denying my kids the chance to develop. In fact, I did all sort of look out for danger signs and scenarios drill with them. Hey, I learned from my unfortunate experience and I don't think my kids should learn the same way.

In fact my dd1 just had an encounter last Saturday on a public bus. A middle age man staring intently at her, smiled at her and then slowly inched towards her in the bus. She was alone at that time. Luckily she was alert enough (thanks to my drill) and dissolved a possibly bad situation.
This is not the first time she encountered sicko. At hawker center ordering food, an uncle purposely stood unnecessarily close to her and checked her out from head to toe and head to toe and head to toe again. I was sitting at a nearby table so I got full view of that sicko uncle's expression. I moved to stand near dd1 and gave that sicko uncle the most poisonous stare I could come up with :nunchuk: He looked away guiltily and backed off

This is a dangerous world!

[quote=\"sleepy\"]:hi5: I will tag along too if my girls studying overseas. Not joking. I meant it

Haha really... Actually my this feeling is not as strong now..coz sending the two for overseas studies not only requires lots of $ but most importantly is my concern for their safety. Somehow, I don't feel so safe anymore..I feel that they will be safer in Spore..do you have the same feeling or am I being too pessimistic?

Local Universities mostly in ulu places wah.

Referring to those with hostels.

Depending where. If Ivy league Universities, of course must go!


If mediocre Universities, then obviously better off studying in local Universities.
