thhMan Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 With so much corruption theft and lies going around, you cant really blame teens. Perhaps the "role models" that the Thai youth are exposed to need to be held responsible as well... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree... but its society that influences their actions and are part to blame... Change one and you alter the other... make sense? You haven't factored in "the greed factor." For some, enough, is never enough, and this is very prevalent on Phuket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
