Sometimes I am frightened off by kids nowadays.
Went out with my mother just now, we took a bus to come back and this kid, he was not in the queue and his mother obviously jumped the queue too. Never mind, lotsa people in Singapore don't really observe the rule of queueing at bus interchanges so no point talking too much about this. Feel kinda disgraced though because this nurse in uniform, despite of calling the two old granny who walked to the other bus she fought her way to board the bus first. HELLO, you are a nurse in uniform some more, I mean, please la, even if u decide to keep quiet, don't do it in such a way that you "fought" your way up to be the first to board the bus, it was a double-decker bus and there sure will have plenty of seats as we were at a interchange, it reflects very badly not only on that person but on the hospital that the person was representing. Haiz.
When we came to the upper deck, the lil' boy who jumped the queue was blocking at the end of the stairs that I have to make way to pass him, and next, after I sat down my mom was behind me and this boy just gave my mom a push and blocked my seat just to get his mom to move over first and I got pissed off by the mother not saying anything to stop the son and nil word of apology, hey, excuse me, do you know that we are on the upper deck and by that push my mom could roll down the stairs? I can't help but blurted "沒家教" *No home teaching* then that woman apologised.
What kind of a kid will she nurture? And during the trip, the boy was standing in the front of the walkway which to me is dangerous. What if the bus give a sharp brake? Will this boy fly out of the glass plane or roll backwards? Then who will be responsible for the injuries? Sue the company? Is there any point in getting a lawsuit when life-long damages are done? Will all that bring the damages back to original function level? The thing now is this woman did not even ask the kid to sit down nor explain to him the danger. Kids do not know what is right what is wrong, and as an adult at least do something. You know I get frightened off by kids like that, parents who are over-protecting and when things turn bad they would only blame the school for not doing their job without remembering who was the one who gave them the life. 養不教，父之過 I wonder how many people would bear that in mind.
