What Are You Thinking About?

[kagalingan]

Hindi ko talaga magets ito may konting power lang eh magtatapang-tapangan in public. May anak ng congressman na kapampangan daw na nanuntok kaso got caught on cctv. May post na dati dito na the new permit to carry are the camera phones, cctv, body cams.. You will get humiliated worldwide and hindi na mabubura yan sa world wide web.

Kung maimbento na yung pang counter sa cctv, example you put something around your car or your body tapos magbeblurry na sa camera eh doon kayo gumawa ng angas.

Parang meron ako napanuod sa tv series na kinabit nya sa mukha tapos bright light na labas sa cctv so hindi na sya kita. Gusto ko yun so i can be a "vigilante" at night.

Appalled at a poster in the watch forum who confronted a mom with a 4 year old kid who was throwing a tantrum at Rolex Service Center. Apparently, he was annoyed the kid was having a tantrum in the service center, a place he drove to for about 4.5 hours. He shouted at the mom and the kid was stunned. What's more appalling is that there were other members who agreed with whathe did.

There was another poster who replied that he had 3 kids who were taught to behave in public and he could not confront the parents of kids who were being kids at the clinic. He called them idiot$ and their junior idiot$

Hirap talaga pag meron nagtatapang-tapangan....ano kaya gawin nila yun kung nandoon yung padre de pamilya?

Talaga naman....

Read his post below:

Yesterday was a road trip for me, Olongapo to Manila. I had 2 places to visit. The Omega Boutique and the Rolex Service Center to drop off my 14 year old Sub for servicing. After 4.5 hours, repeat 4.5 hours driving I arrived at the RSC. After entering the building I calmly sat and waited for my number to be called. Eventually I was seated at the counter in front of a well educated and very knowledgeable customer service rep. To my left, at the next customer service station was a woman who apparently was dropping off a watch for someone else. With her was a young boy around 4 years of age. This kid was screaming and yelling so this woman plays a video on her phone attempting to quiet the kid. This doesn't work so now there's an undisciplined kid screaming and a video playing at full volume. The noise was so loud that the customer service rep and I could not hear each other.

After 4.5 hours in the car my patience was thin and I was not going to put up with this. I stood up and as loudly as I could speak told her that if she could not control her child she should leave. I also told her that it is rude to play a video on her phone in a public place where other people are trying to conduct business. The kid, surprised by this stopped screaming. The woman gave me a look of hatred but turned off her phone. Looking around the room, all eyes were on me but all the other customers and employees gave me a look of approval.

It amazes me that in today's society people have just forgotten how to act in public. When you go out in public you dress appropriately, you stand in line and wait your turn, and you mute your phone. This is just common decency and respect for others.

and the other poster who basically agreed with him...

Good on you. I would have loved to do the same thing. I was in a similar situation.

A couple of months ago I was at a pediatrician's office waiting for my kid's turn. As you can imagine, kids everywhere running around and screaming while their parents seem to be oblivious to all their ruckus. In fact, it was the parents (and grandparents) who had their phones out watching videos AT FULL VOLUME and NO EARPHONES. In other societies, this would not only be frowned upon, but be dealt with via embarassing public condemnation. I would have loved to reprimand the idiots and their idiot juniors, but they outnumbered me 20 to 1.

I have three kids, all are very well behaved and sit quietly wherever we are. They read a book or draw on their sketchbooks whenever we are in a place waiting for a long time. I do not allow playing tag or any horseplay in waiting rooms. I tell them, respect elders, do not be a nuisance to strangers. It's not hard to teach them. During one of our long haul trips abroad, one foreigner told me as we were landing, "Frankly when I saw you settle in your seats with your kids I was concerned that they would be noisy throughout the flight. But they are the best behaved kids I've ever flown with."

Were they born that way? No, it was years of instilling discipline in them. TURUAN SA BAHAY. Teach them to be more considerate of the volume of their voices, the sounds that they make, their sense of personal space and their demeanor. You will be creating better, more socially responsible citizens, absent of senses of entitlement.

Problem with most parents nowadays is that they have been de-sensitized to the screams of their kids, or they simply dismiss it as "bata e." Bata nga, kaya kailangan ng disiplina at paynubay ng magulang.

I sympathize with you sir. Minsan, power and money boost that ego of yours akala mo angat ka sa lahat. You forget the sensitivities and sensibilities.

Marami rin ang nagsabi the situation could have been handled better.

The OP, as I understand correctly was a foreigner. Again, I'd like to see him do that with the father of the child present.

Foreigner pa pala... Let me guess.. Puti. Yes I am being a reverse racist here. (but if di puti, I apologize)

Thing is, maraming puti rin, tingin nila, they are the better race. Especially nasa Pinas sila. Mababa tingin nila sa atin. Not all. But a lot.

Now let me find that local watch forum thread. I guess isa lang naman sikat na local WIS forum

This is true. I got to work with one who was a consultant in my former company. Threw his weight around every chance he could get so he could get additional staff....exclusive meeting rooms...service vehicle, etc.

The owners finally had enough of him and did not renew his contract for failure to have even one of his projects implemented after 2 years.

[uls]

hindi ba sensitive mga foreigner sa ganyan

like in restaurants ayaw nila mga kids na maingay

ang thinking nila "i came here for a nice quiet dinner and your noisy kids are ruining it"

[uls]

iba lang culture nila

maybe ung entitlement mentality na "i have the right to peace and quiet. i can call the police if you're disturbing the peace"

[_Cathy_]

I'm with the person who told the woman to discipline her child. This is a hot topic on social media, entitled parents who feel like everyone else should understand and adjust to them because they have children.

Also, do ALL 4 yr old throw tantrums in public? I don't know because I am not a mother, only child and no young cousins.

And do I find it rude to play a video loudly in public - child, adult or elderly pa yan. BTW, I've experienced a child kicking the back of my seat on the plane, I was absolutely appalled that the parent did NOTHING to stop his child, and he knew very well what his child was doing. I waited for him to tell him child pero wala, mahiluhin ako so I told him if he could ask his child to stop kicking my chair.

Americans can call the police on you for partying loud

I don't think it has do with race. Just read the comments on FB, all races may mga tao who complain about parents with the same reasoning na they are children and you can't control.

Oh I just remembered my Mom, of course, she's a mother, but she also dislikes unruly children in public. She'd give me the look when there are noisy unruly children in public.

[BlancNoir]

What can we do about those noisy kids? They're kids.

I think it's up to the parent to discipline their children. If you for one cannot control or discipline your child, i believe you as a parent has failed big time.

Agree din ako sa ginawa. Mali siguro execution pero dapat talaga sabihan yun nanay.

Not all kids are unruly in public. The child was throwing a TANTRUM. That means crying and screaming and some kicking. I have friends who told me they never threw tantrums in public as children dahil gulpi aabutin nila sa parents nila.

And yes, dapat talaga i control or discipline, I agree with what the guy said, hindi pwede yung rason na "bata yan".

There was one instance when I heard mass, a child was noisy and running around while the mass was ongoing (we were at the back of the church) Nung umalis na sila, lahat kami surrounding them had chit chat about how appalled we were with the woman and the behaviour of the child.

Agree din ako sa ginawa. Mali siguro execution pero dapat talaga sabihan yun nanay.

YES! Mga Filipinos kasi nagtitimpi lang and non confrontational. Mali na sumigaw but the woman has to learn na mali din siya.

On a related topic, discussion ngayon yung proposed bill na bawal na raw paluin ang bata. Di pa naman approved.

Naalala ko nung bata kame, isang tingin lang alam na namin to behave. Pag di pa tumigil, alam na namin mangyayari sa amin.

Different families will have different ways to discipline/UNdiscipline their kids.

I'd like to believe me and my siblings turned out to be responsible and disciplined adults naman.

The best way to deal with a kid throwing tantrums is to ignore them. Kids throw tantrums as a way to get what they want. Ignore them a couple of times and you won't have to deal with it in the future. We learned it from an elderly couple, works like a charm.

ganito yun

in refined, polite societies it reflects badly on parents when their children don't behave in public and don't have manners including table manners

so syempre the parents discipline/train their kids good behavior, good manners (saying thank you and please etc), proper table manners etc coz they don't want people to say things about them (image is very important in such societies)

but in less refined, lower socio-economic levels, there's no such thing

so kids behave like kids
