    "happy fathers day daddy" That was about it. Now we are digging the fact the True Visions have opened up all the channels for fathers day.

    Unlike Pattaya, most of the local shops are observant around here and don't sell beer.
    Found one that did though, and had a few.

    I got 2 hand made father's day cards and a plastic fan with the Kings picture on it from my 3 kids who still live with me.

    I received them sitting on a stage with about 15 other fathers, in front of about 500 people and I found it somewhat unnerving when each one of them had come up on stage, kneel down and wai at my feet before they handed me their gift.

    Some people love this ritual but as far as I am concerned they can keep it.

    Well, actually, I can tell you EVERYTHING I got, a 39 Baht chocolate cake from 7/11 (By the way I had to give my son the money up front...but it is the thought that counts)

    A Chocolate Heart from 7/11 that says I love you, a packet of Mentos from 7/11, a Thai "Comedy" DVD from Ta Gahn. and a card!

    The Cake, the Mentos, and the chocolate heart...he ate the fucking lot!

    Twats!

    It was like "Daddy..are you hungry yet?"

    Oh, I forgot the Kit Kat..he ate that too!

    I feel for you with that shit! it's embarrasing.

    My lad wanted to give me a fucking massage as some free book from the 7/11 suggested it!

    I ended up having to lie on the floor while he jumped on my head!

    It has about 12 suggestions on what you should do for your father, take them out, speak to them nicely, (I still got told to go fuck off) wai at their filthy feet, buy them something nice... they need to add AND DON"T FUCKING EAT IT! not one of their suggestions said FUCK OFF Into your own bed for half an hour so daddy can get a blow job!

    Yes it was fvcking embarrassing for me along with the other farang fathers on stage.

    Having your kids grovelling at your feet as you are sitting in a chair is probably the most unnerving feeling I have ever had and I had to got though this experience 3 times.

    I found it most appalling when some of the kids went up on stage and to perform this ritual in front of empty chairs where their fathers should of been sitting.

    Empty chairs??? what the hell is that? are their Dads dead? or did they just not turn up?

    I hate this grovelling shit that they try to put into kids...but you can see how it becomes an end to a means...fucking keep them as grovelling slaves!

    I tell my son where to get off with this shit! I put up with a bit, soley out of what little respect (and its diminishing) for their supposed "religion...like where monks tie dogs to trees and fuck em!

    How can you explain that to a kid!

    To be honest, i think the older you get, the more you realise that ALL religions are built on fear and control!

    I got one of them flower garlands from the grand daughter. She's 3 years old and made it herself. Very serious presentation ritual as is the Thai way. Must admit, it was the best fathers day present I ever got.

    I don't go along with this groveling crap either, when I pick the girls up from school they wai the teacher and then the teacher says wai Kun Paw as well.
    I say NO I'm a farang they respect me as I do them, and in my culture thats sufficient.

    You know, we all talk about how it is "The thought that counts", but the way the Thais do it, it destroys all of that, it is like "BUYING" something, they give in the expectation to receive even more!

    It's lovely you get something that your grandchild made, but I bet you 10:1 The Thais are instilling into her that she will have bought a bit of "MERIT"

    A hand written card from my 8 year-old son.
    You blokes who think that the feeling of a young child to his/her father is meaningless-- get a life.

    No need for bets. You are wrong so would hate to take your money. Don't know what your clan is about but don't confuse your situation with mine.
