sgboy2004 SG From ST forum page: A RIDE FOR SCHOOLBOY: On April 29, my nine-year-old son missed his school bus despite running after it. A gas delivery man and his companion saw him and gave him a lift in their lorry from Jurong East to his school, St Anthony's Primary, in Bukit Gombak. My son related their kind deed to me when he returned home from school in the evening. I would like to extend my appreciation and thanks to them.A sudden thought came to me after reading this: shouldn't the mother warn the son not to take rides from strangers? The gas delivery man and his companion could have seen the opportunity and kidnap the boy (hypothetically)... (no offense to the delivery man and his companion) Do u think the boy should take the ride from the gas delivery man or just simply call home to his mommy for help? ______________________ Police Croco Please break the law so that mi have a job
harryryan SG ha… depends…if e guy looks like croco than h3ll no!!! but it’s really up to e individual….sometimes u have no choice…so must take e risk,but it’s good to know that there are some warm n helpful people out there in “icy cold” Singapore….
Parka SG Nothing much to do with that small boy anyway. Kidnap? That's a life imprisonment, if I remember correctly. Steal money for the kiddo? How much money can they get? Ransom? That's the same as kidnap. CHild pornography...Possible?
ditzy SG This is somewhat like the dilemma Mr Steve Irwin faced when he dangled his little kiddo in front of a crocodile(no pun intended ), and went:"I was in absolute control of the situation.". And getting lambasted in the process by the general public. Read:Baby over balcony, by Mr Jackson.
sgboy2004 SG aiyo, see Croco then must take rides from him mah... but from young, mi am told not to take rides from strangers mah... but this boy just hop onto the vehicle of the strangers (or maybe these 2 men deliver gas to the boy's house often) Well, it could hav been a dangerous situation lor ______________________ I am Croco, Croco am I Croco Movie
NeonTetra SG not implying tt gas delievery man is a crook. as much as we appreciate ppl's help..need to be aware of underlying dangers....its a sad fact that this world can no longer be trusted anymore?
sgboy2004 SG but we never know who is good, who is bad lor It is better safe than sorry ______________________ Police Croco Please break the law so that mi have a job
sgboy2004 SG but mi am sure tat many parents will tell their young children not to take things or follow strangers mah... The headlines could hav been different "Boy kidnapped while on the way to school" Well, in this case, it turned out well... a real case of HELP... _______________________ sgboy2004, the Good Boi Croco Corner Croco Movie
