See inside the psych of the Dragon.
Here is Situation.
From yesterdays Press.
Boy gets violently ill after recieving cake from stranger.
Now the press are savaging the stranger. Saying he is a sicko and should be drawn and quartered. (My Interpretation of press release)
Well I point the finger at the Boy and parents. (If there are Parents) The boy is 12yrs old.
When I was growing up the school rammed it down our throats about stranger danger. My parents lectured me about strangers everytime we went to big events. (Well my mother did)
In this era kids have lost the respect for right and wrong. No respect for laws and law enforcers.
See this is where I say bring back corporal punishment.
But this kid is learning the hard way from natural selection. He is suffering for his error in judgement on the critical ill list in hospital. This on its own should teach him and his immediate mates the inportance of not accepting food from strangers.
And another point. There is no proof that there was a stranger. As the original report said the boy was walking home around four or five in the afternoon. (Not sure).
Who is to say at this point that the kid didn't pick up the cake off the street or a shop owner has laid a trap for a petty thief. The Boy being the Petty thief. (I remember my Mum doing that to a boy at school, Someone was pinching my brothers playlunch everyday. So she lifted the icing and smothered it with mustard)
The Boy invents the stranger to keep himself from getting in further trouble.
Why are the press not picking on the boy and Parents. 1) for being so stupid. 2) For bad parenting. the kid is 12 for christ sakes.
To me he got what he deserved. There are always Predators and they come in many forms. Incuding Feminine with looks to stop the all blacks from scoring the winning try. We need to learn to look after ourselves in all situations and if we take the risk then we accept the results.
