An Accidental Father

A conversation with one’s own young, on the duties, obligations, responsibilities of parents, from a legal angle here, translated…

“Mommy, what are you reading?”, my younger child came toward my desk, saw that blue-covered, yellowed pages, diary in my hand.

“This was your grandfather’s diary.”  I’d held back my tears, put it up in silence.

“When I was young, grandpa always told me, I’ll take you to Carrefour, RT Mart, bought me all those treats!”, my daughter got nostalgic.

this???  photo from online

Yeah!  Mommy’s busy working, grandpa and grandma came to mommy’s rescue every time, and I’d needed them to come watch you and your older brother often.

“I loved going to the toy store with papa!”, my older son told, “I saw a limited edition Gundam that’s very expensive, papa didn’t have that much money, but I’d told papa that by tomorrow, it’ll be, gone!  And on that very night, papa went and bought it!”  my son has the potential as a scam artist, and I’m sure, that my father was, more than glad to get, cheated too.

“I don’t think I remember my inside grandpa and grandma at all!”, my younger daughter stated.

“what inside grandpa and grandma?  Your paternal grandparents, my parents!”, her father laughed and straightened her out.

Because they got too old, and, God called them up earlier to be fairies, you were still, too young.

or this…photo from online

So as mommy read through papa’s diary, she got sad.  Especially how today is Father’s Day, I really hope that I can have that meal with my father, to watch T.V. together, to have this, ordinary sort of a bliss again.

My younger daughter hesitated a bit, ran to get a cup of tea, and, served it with great respect to her father.

And her father flipped through the papers, and let out a cool sort of “hmmmmmmmm!”, and I saw that smile, curling up his lips, he was now, gloating!

“there’s only one dad, you must, cherish him!”, my son is now, sucking up too, with a fan, fanning to cool his dad down, maybe, he’d not done well on an exam, and needed to put out his father’s fire before he’d shown the papers for him to sign.

There’s, that mix and match of emotions that’s between parents and children, sometimes, what happened was, more dramatic that the soap, more imaginative than those novels.

Remembered how we’d all gone to see that Japanese film, “My Accidental Father”?  the gynecology nurse envied someone else’s happiness, switched the two newborn infants up.  Six years later, the truth came out, how were these two families supposed to, cope with, this huge accident in their lives?

The two fathers, one was an elite excellent architect; the other, an electrician, who’s, easy going in nature.  Which one would best fit the children to be raised in?

“What if, this actually happened?”, my younger daughter became worried.

The way the movie worked out, it’s, gentle and understanding.  But in reality, the parent-child relationships, were based, off of the laws.  There are the adopted children and the blood-related children in the facets of the law.

“Children should follow the filial piety duties toward their parents.  As Civil Law 1084 stated.”  Dad recited it aloud.

“Second, parents should protect and educate the underage minors”, mommy added.

You want to match memories?  You’d forgotten to hold my hands first time we went out on a date, as we crossed that intersection; on our second date, you’d dozed off, started snoring; and, by the third date………………(deleted millions of characters here!)

Dad who was on his tea started choking on it, started coughing hard, and, escaped into the bathrooms.

“Mommy, there’s a sixteen-year-old daughter who’d sued her father, because he wouldn’t buy her a cell phone”, my older son thumbed through the online news.

“there are the fathers who’d sued their young for parental support, but the judge said the children didn’t need to pay it!”, my younger daughter discovered something as well.

Ahh, the stories mom heard and saw in court, last longer than the Arabian Nights!

There was a middle aged man who got in court and started crying on the stand, it’d made mommy want to lose it too.

“Mommy don’t cry”, my older son handed a tissue to me, “I thought only daddy can get you worked up, can’t imagine someone else had too!”, came my husband’s coughing from the bathroom again!

“what had happened?”, my children both got curious.

That middle aged man’s father left the family when he was a young child, it was his mother who’d raised him all on her own, him and his two other siblings, with only enough money for a rental stay, they kept switching in and out of their residences, forgot to go to the land offices to change their addresses.  The three siblings took out the student loans, and worked part-time, get themselves through school, and finally, this middle aged man had his own family, started raising his own young, finally, he was able to give his mother a good life.

But, the middle aged man’s father suddenly returned, Social Services notified this man to go and claim his own father’s dead body.

“What?”, my daughter covered up her ears, couldn’t dare hear the rest of the story.

His father who’d only shown up as a registered name on his national identification card, finished his final passage of life in a nursing home.  Before this, the Social Services sent multiple notices to his registered address, to let them know that they needed to pay for the owed fees of having his father placed, but they’d, already moved out, and through the searches, the Social Services finally found the three brothers and sister.  Based off of the law, there’s the obligation for care, so the nursing home demanded that they pay for the money for their father’s care.

“But this dad had never been responsible at all toward his own young!”, my older son became confused.

During the time when their father went missing, the family didn’t know to report him missing, while their mother never filed for divorce either, let alone the children never knew they could file a petition to “relieve themselves of caretaking duties toward their father”.

“If the fathers didn’t care for their children when they were young, then he can’t ask them to take care of him when he’s old, is that what this means?”, my son inquired.

“Hmmm, it’s called ‘Without just cause not providing for one’s own children’, Civil Law 1118 section 1.”  Dad finally showed up, replied, “every unfortunate family has a different bad story.”  From before, the former generations said raising the children so they don’t need to worry about their old age, and now it’s, taking of the elderly years, watching out for the young.

“So, do we save the allowance you give us and pay you back when you’re older?”, my daughter asked.

Nope!  Child.  It’s the parents’ responsibilities, AND obligations to raise their young, same for how the children treat their own parents.  This is not a sales or a trade-off, it’s not quid-pro-quo, tit-for-tat, nor trading the younger years, for that permanent meal ticket in old age.

But, we must admit, that in this world, there are, the unfitting parents, also, the bad children too.  If this middle aged man’s father was found of not providing for his children when they were younger in evidence, the law must agree too, at this time, forcing the children to act kind, wouldn’t be just, or right.

“But this sort of cases are post-date.  Meaning, that you must file a formal lawsuit with the courts, and after you’d won the case, then, you will be alleviated from paying for the care.”, dad got serious, answering the inquiries now.

So, the debts accumulated by this middle aged man before he died, for his care, the country believed that it’s paying for him temporarily, that in the end, this middle-aged man will pay for.

“But, what if you don’t have children?”, my younger daughter voiced her worries, she’d not planned to get married, or have any kids.

It’s, the million dollar question of elderly caretaking, and national social security, how the policies should be, set up all right!

Should the only reason for what constitutes as parents and children based only off of blood?  And, the social security, is it an act of kindness, or a responsibilities for all of us, citizens to carry?

“Mom, stop worrying, you’ll get more wrinkles!”, my older son reminded me kindly.

It’d hit dad suddenly, he’d suggested, “Today’s Father’s Day, let’s go offer incense to both your grandfathers, and tell them we’re all very happy together.”

And then?

“Let’s have a gourmet meal, to thank me, as a responsible dad, of course!!!”, dad said, with that, affirmative tone of voice.

And so, this, is a discussion that’s, sparked up by the kids, and the parents are more than willing, to help the children get more educated, with their separate areas of expertise, and through this conversation shared with their young, both the parents and the children benefitted.

Is Democracy Totally, on the, Collapse in the World?

Commentaries about how democracy is actually, demoCRAZY here, off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The top two headlines; from a day ago, all the major newspapers are reporting on how the former president, Lee, “Mr. Democracy” passed; the following day, almost all the major papers are reporting on how the five former and current legislators had, taken the bribes.  Thirty years ago, the former president, Lee in order to let the more experienced representative to take his place, to reform the legislatures, he’d become noted as “Mr. Democracy”.  But, thirty years after the development of this democracy, the key lawmakers of the major parties were found to have taken the bribes from the enterprises, and this showed, how democracy doesn’t mean getting the citizens in directly voting for the president, it’d clearly, shown us, that it’s, too difficult a task, for the politics of democracy to head down the right tracks.

Four years ago, after Trump was elected as president, his methods of ruling the country, using his awful, wayward speeches and behaviors, tearing America apart, it’d made people started doubting democracy.  Taiwan followed closely behind too, these few elected representatives of the people, are a verification of, just that.

Actually, there’s, the corruptive characteristics of democracy.  Democracy is based off of majority ruling.  But, everybody neglected to note: all the major decisions, all involved the assignments of benefits; and, there is, a “cost of the deal” in every single decision.  What is meant by “cost of the deal” is how we needed to, compromise, in order, to reach an agreement; and the more people are involved, the bigger space we’ll need, and, as the number of participants increased to hundreds, thousands, even, millions, it would be next to impossible, to find a place to have all the people gather, let alone, having these participants find a time they’re all, available, and how they’re to, reach, an agreement on everything it’s even, harder still.  And the high price that we’re paying, is, the cost of a democratic, government.

And based off of this, democracy happens, at too high a cost, and yet, people are still pursuing it, blindly, thinking that if they cast a vote, then, their governments are, democratic, without realizing, those lawmakers are, manipulating the masses, by using the ambiguous wordings, to confuse the voters (like this last election I voted in, with the various issues of same-sex marriages, sex ed in the elementary years, etc., etc., etc.), and, this is, a test of the citizens ability to, think critically, but, mostly, when it comes to the votes, we let our emotions lead the way, instead of our heads, and that is precisely why, the world is, headed toward H-E-L-L!!!

 

 

The American Secretary of Defense May be FIRED for Defying Trump on His Call to Draw Back the National Guards on the Marches

“You’re FIRED!!!”, no, we’re still, not “tuning in” to, The Apprentice, it’s how the current AMERICAN president (and no, still did NOT vote in that LAST election!!!) is currently doing!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The American President, Trump Stated, that if the Protests Get Out of Control, He Will Sent the National Guards Out.  The Secretary of Defense, Esper strongly Advised Against this on the Third, stated that He isn’t in Support of the Currently Enlisted Servicemen and Women to Help Keep the Peace, He’d, Talked BACK to the President Openly.  The New York Times reported, that Trump was Furious over Esper’s Words, and this also showed, how Trump’s Using Force, had Caused Chaos in the U.S. Military.

The New York Times reported, that the high up level officials of the D.O.D. worried, that sending the servicemen and women out onto the streets would lead U.S. into a state of martial law.  Asper stated openly, that he was, against sending the troops out, to dissipate the protesters, that only under extreme circumstances, will the currently enlisted servicemen and women be called to duty, “We are not in that condition right now!”

After the press conference by Esper, the D.O.D. immediately called back the 1,600 troops.  But, after Esper went to the White House for a conference, he’d, cancelled the order for the troops to be, sent away, the troops were standing by.  The New York Times quoted the reports from White House officials, Trump grilled Esper in the White House.

Members of the press asked, that as Esper spoke up against the president’s using the riot laws, did he lose the trust of the president, McEnany stated, that the president has “absolute power”, to use the law, to keep the peace, that the U.S. will NOT tolerate the burning of churches, the police forces getting SHOT at, the shops getting broken into, this is the power of the president, and tools at his, disposal, but currently, he has, no plans of imploring such measures, because after the National Guards stationed in, D.C.’s safety improved.

Based off of CNN, Esper’s behaviors had already, displeased Trump and the head of National Security, O’Brien; actually, there’s been tension between the Pentagon and the White House, because Trump didn’t weigh Esper’s opinions enough, the head of the D.O.D. didn’t have actual power, and on the matter of defense, Esper had to compete with the secretary of state, Pompeo for power.

In Minnesota, the four former police officers who’d killed Floyd were all prosecuted and indicted on the third by the Minnesota attorney general, Ellison, the primary suspect, Chauvin’s crimes were elevated to “Second Degree Murder”, while the other three members of the police force are charged with “aiding and abetting second degree murder”.

The riots are still ongoing in the U.S., there are the national guards, the servicemen in camouflage on the streets of D.C., the cases of robbery in New York on the rise.  But, mostly, around the U.S., the protests had returned back to peaceful, and there’s, a reduction of confrontations compared to days ago now.

And so, this, is how Trump did NOT have enough leadership ability, and, it also showed, how Trump would NOT allow for anyone who has, a different opinion than his own, he just, FIRE them, take them out of his, cabinet, and this, is what’s, currently, happening in one of the, “freest” countries in the world.

Adultery Claims Unconstitutional, Null & Void from Here on Out

Finally, the government, the legislature’s, doing SOMETHING, to protect the party that stayed, TRUE in a marriage here, it’s about time too!!!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

“Can Our Marriages be Protected Under the Legislature?” the Grand Justice Made it Clear on the 791^st, Most Justices Believed, that the Government should NOT Intervene into People’s Private Lives in Marriage, and Proclaimed the Charges of Adultery Unconstitutional.  And, on the Criminal Front, “Can Toss the Case Against the Cheating Spouses”, Gives the Long-Term Blames to Only the Other Man or the Other Woman, and this Was Also, Against the Equal Rights Act, Also Declared, Unconstitutional as Well, These Two Formerly Instated Laws are Immediately, Unconstitutional.

Five Who were Charged with Adultery & Put in Jail Released, Over Hundreds of Cases are, Tossed

This was another historical, and debatable interpretation from the grand justice since the 748^th legislature, allowing the rights of same-sex couples to be valid, but this was also, quite, controversial.  There were, five inmates who were released for being charged and serving time for adultery yesterday, the district attorney’s offices, and all the local court systems are now, reviewing over hundreds of the cases of adultery, and, doing away with the “free slaps on the wrists” clause, the justice and legislative departments are also, working fast, to slash these laws right now.

Back in 2002, the Grand Justice made the 554^th explanation on Criminal Law #239, back then, the Grand Justice believed, that marriage and families are a basis for the society, that these were, protected under the constitution, declared adultery as a chargeable offense.

But with the changes in the society, there were, nineteen justices who, while overseeing the cases of adultery, believed, that the explanations had, obstructed the basic human rights, and asked for a reinterpretation of the legislation; there are six other cases of found guilty adultery cases, which the grand justice is now, reviewing over too.  The new explanation of the legislation given by the grand justice tossed away the 554^th from eighteen years ago.

And yesterday was also the first time when the Grand Justice went on air, with the head justice, Hsu telling the masses the reason why they’d, reinterpreted the laws, the grand justices believed, that with the society becoming freer and freer, and the various forms of what constitute as a legal marriage, they’d taken into considerations the marriages laws of other democracies, that the self-governing nature of individuals in a marriage is affirmed, and that the legislation needed to, reflect just that.

Using Criminal Punishments to Maintain a Marriage, Brings about a Negative Effect

The head justice pointed out, that sexual independence is the key point of individual rights, and it’s closely related to humanity and dignity, that the laws are related to basic human rights, that the criminal claims of adultery should reflect that, and, in order to judge on the matter, the issue should be examined, more closely.

The grand justice believed, that the constitution grants people the right of freedom in marriage without any intervention from the government, including whether or not we marry, who we marriage, and getting divorced by the willingness of both parties involved.  Whether or not the marriage is good, happy, it’s reliant on both individuals’ hard work, that it wouldn’t do much good, by criminally punishing those who’d not fulfilled the obligations of a marriage, that it may, cause a negative effect even.

The reasons of the new interpretations also mentioned, that the adultery charges not only restricted citizens’ sexual freedoms, in the process of pursuing, of judging the cases, it naturally invaded into the privacies of citizens, which gives the country the power, to invade into, our privacies.

The Grand Justice pointed out, that the country’s using criminal methods to punish those who hadn’t followed the rules of marriage although this punished the party who’d been unfaithful, but it can, also have a negative effect on the marriage too, and believed that the criminal charges of adultery is against the 22^nd basic human rights legislature.

The Other Man/Woman Solely Shouldered the Responsibilities for the Infidelities, Against the Equality Act

Toward the clause of how the spouses can drop the charges against their separate spouses on the criminal front, the Grand Justice believed, that as the adultery charges against the spouses are withdrawn, usually, the individuals already made the decisions whether or not to continue staying married, that pursuing the other man/woman served the purpose of “revenge”, and in the end, only the other man/woman solely shouldered the responsibilities, that this goes against the seventh of Equal Rights Clause.

The explanations of this pointed out, that the country has the responsibilities to rid of gender discriminations, to push forth equal gender rights, and, the precedence found, that the women are found guilty more often than men, which clearly showed, how imbalanced this particular clause had been.

Toward the Head Grand Justice’s explanations, ten of the grand justices had minor things to add.

And so, this gives the spouses the right, it brings us, closer to gender equality, because now, not just women will be, ostracized from the adultery charges like in the past, both sexes of the cheating parties WILL get charged, and this is one step closer, to getting toward, equal rights for both sexes, still a long way to go, but at least, the country’s, going somewhere now!

Cruel & Unusual…

What, constitute, as cruel and unusual?  Does the DEATH penalty count?  How ‘bout the measures of someone, torturing someone else, then, brutally, murdering the victim, huh?

Cruel and unusual, is from the standpoint of humanity, but, what if, the murder lost, ALL of her/his humanity, while, murdering someone else in brutality?  Then, does the perpetrator, DESERVE an inkling of leniency?

like, this???  Sketch found online…

Cruel and unusual, yeah, I can be cruel, and yes, I can also, be UNUSUAL, in my ways of MAKING you pay, for what you did to me, and it’ll still be, within, the REALMS of the written laws of M-A-N!

Cruel and unusual, you’ve, GOT to be shitting me here!  Why the HELL do the world need to, show you, an INKLING of MERCY, if you’d, shown, NONE to your victims, huh???

Name Wee’s New Song Was Controversial, He Was Held by the Malaysian Government for Four Days, Then Bailed Out

Talking ‘bout a TOTAL LACK of freedom of expression, and speech here! From the Entertainment Sections, translated…

The Malaysian singer, Name Wee set up a New Year’s greeting song, “Like a Dog”, and, it’d caused fury in the religious sect of Malaysia, he was taken in to the local police station on the 22^nd to explain himself; four days later, he’d made bail, he’d posted that he was okay on FB, “I’m out now, thank you all for your shows of care and concern toward me. I just want to take a long shower, have some food, then, go to bed. Chat later. Love you guys, goodnight.”

the artist showing off his albums…photo from MSN.com

On the afternoon of the 26^th, Namewee, in the company of his friends and attorney, finished setting up the bail for his release, he’d dressed casually, with a mask, and a knitted hat, quickly, made his way out of the police station, and run into the car that came to pick him up. Based off of understanding, these past few days of being in jail, he’d felt, pained. Based off of the local press, Namewee’s father felt relieved, after learning that he’d made bail, and mentioned, that his son believed, that Malaysia is just, he also believed, that the police finished up with the investigations of his son’s case, and now, they’re waiting for the ruling from the assistant district attorney.

And, Namewee has a huge fan base back home, and, toward this New Year’s greeting song that’s caused such controversy, the official, Kary said from an interview a couple of days ago, “For me, we know this sort of man, he’s an idiot”, he’d even, asked the public, to ignore his existence. And, as Namewee starts work on the 28^th in Kuala Lumpur on a commercial, all the way to March 25, when he’s due in Taiwan for a concert, there are a ton of work for him to do in Malaysia, to prepare for his concert, and the four days he was in police custody didn’t affect his schedules.

Wow, so, there are, those places in this god DAMN world, where if you say something that’s offended someone, you get hauled off to prison, and this makes me wonder, is this, a free world, or, are we all, just living in the mirage of ourselves, living IN a free world, it is, the TWENTY-FIRST century, so, why are some countries in this world so, medieval still, huh???

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Washington Post Criticized that Obama Had Brain-Washed the Americans “What Happened in Syrian is None of Our Business”

International affairs, is it, our business or is it not???  From the Front Page Sections, translated…

The commentaries on Washington Post pointed out, that the most accidental achievement that President Obama has internationally was that he made the Americans feel, that the tragedies in Syrian was not the Americans’ responsibilities.

The commentaries aid, that ten years ago, the conflicts in Darfur, Sudan had caused humanitarian problems, the American churches got involved in saving Darfur; in 2001, the IS destroyed the two most precious statues of Buddha, it’d shocked the world.

Today, the IS bombed the ancient sites of Palmyra; half of Syrians citizens are without homes, and over a quarter of a million were killed, but, in the U.S. the calls for “Saving Darfur” back then wasn’t changed into “Saving Syria”.

The Americans are not enthusiastic about saving Syrian, one of the reason being the president, Obama.  He kept consoling the people, that not doing anything is the intelligent, and most fitting to the morals.  He’d often stated, that there’s nothing that the U.S. can do, that the forces fighting in Syrian are a bunch of “doctors, farmers, and pharmacists”.

He’d also said, that if U.S. intervened, it can only make matters worse.  When he was interviewed by the “New Republic” Magazines in 2013, he’d stated, “I’m thinking about our limits, not our warring abilities or our capabilities.”

He’d asked, “If there are millions being slaughtered in Syrian, and, tens of thousands being murdered in Congo, which country do I offer aid to?”, it’d also hinted, that if the U.S. can’t solve every single problem in the world, then, maybe, they should just, stand by and watch.

Obama promised, that he will take actions, if the U.S. can no longer cope with just watching from the sidelines, the goings on in Syrian, or when something truly awful happens; training the resistance army, set up safety zones in the borders of Turkey.  But, once the heat subsided, then, the plans would be abandoned, or downsized.

The Washington Post pointed out, that the supporters of Obama don’t see what he was doing as a “necessary evil”, which was, a great achievement.  And, the U.S. finally led the world with its brains and NOT its emotions, and learned to be humble, to not be egotistical.  The realists pointed out, that when the U.S. is guided by the ideals and the emotions, then, troubles appear, like the black hawk helicopters getting shot down in Somalia.

The media said, that if Obama’s doing nothing can yield better results, then, they have nothing more to say.  But, the actual situation had turned into a humanitarian disaster.  Iraq had become a nation of terrorists, and, Syria now has chemical weapons being used, the Islamic Nation is calling on millions of foreign soldiers, and is already, threatening the safety of the U.S. soil, and the crowds of refugees are causing European instability.

So, why do you think that President Obama is now, taking this laissez faire approach, when apparently, the WORLD is requiring that the U.S. get intervened?  Perhaps, because, the president is now, realizing, that the trend of U.S. behavior in involving itself in war in history, like the war in Iraq when Bush was the president, along with all the wars that don’t involve the U.S. originally, and, butting in, in all those times in history only caused U.S. casualties, and, Obama’s not doing anything is also, pissing people off, but, examine the events in history, like how the war in Iraq had worked out for the Bush presidency…

When the Child Asks: Should I Help a Stranger?

Because of how dangerous the world had become, commentaries, from the Front Page Sections, translated…

The young girl, Liu was brutally murdered in her school, was such awful news, it’d started this fear for the society.  This sort of random murders, without a set pattern, where the murderer did not even try to escape from getting caught, plus the victim was a cute and innocent child from the elementary years, it’d made everybody sad, and subconsciously feared, if something similar would happen to our own loved ones, and so, the panic spread, through the society.

First, the calls to ban the death penalties.  I’m against banning death penalty myself, but, I’d hoped, that whether or not the death penalty gets banned don’t get determined solely, by one particular case.  If people are now, FOR the death penalty, because of this particular cruel incident, then, would the public be against it, if there comes a case, where the judge made a wrong call, and caused an innocent man to die?  A law, should not be decided, based off of single incidents.  From another angle, the perpetrators from several similar incidents all showed that they’d wanted to die, so, there is still, NOT a direct relation between whether or not we should ban the death penalty, in relation to how awful the crimes are.

And, this, is just one man’s take, and, because this is the issue of today, a young child was murdered brutally by a man who entered into the school yards, without JUST cause, that, is why there’s this RANTING on NOT to abolish the death penalty…

Two Things that the Middle Schools Failed to Teach the Students

The downside of this reform in education, from the Front Page Sections, translated…

Recently after the results of the college entrance examinations, the related questions are once again, brought up, all of these problems, may be the issues of the systems, but, they are also a reflection of the blind spots of education, we failed to teach the younger generations the following:

Plans for One’s Futures: all the parents know, that entering into college is a very important decision.  But, other than preparing for the entrance exams day and night, what ELSE did we put in, for preparation’s sake?  We’d been led to believe, that so long as we scored high enough, we can attend ANY school we wanted to; but, the colleges are filled with an INFLUX of students who’d chosen the wrong majors, and has an even HIGHER rate of dropping out.  Aren’t the youths of eighteen years-of-age allowed their rights to explore their areas of interest?  Couldn’t they have the chances, to fail at the options they were choosing?  Shouldn’t they get to know the situation in those schools they’re applying to?  Are they really certain, of what they’re doing? 

The writer recalled, back when he’d applied for graduate school in the U.S., in order to make the best choice with limited funding, he’d conflicted between the choices of schools, or the majors, but, after going through that, I’d understood better, the purpose of me, studying abroad.  The whole purpose of the application process, is for the students to sort through their plans for themselves in the next four years, to choose the major that is mostly fitting to oneself.  But unfortunately, we’d educated the students by rushing them through the lessons, then, giving them endless reviews, examinations of the subjects, unwilling to let the students find their own separate piece of sky, no wonder, the college interviews, the entrance exams for the separate majors are almost exact, and, the schools had spent a TON of money, to publicize the academics, and not getting the desired results.

The Students Couldn’t Live Independently by Themselves: undeniable, the process of heading to interviews will take the students all over the map, but, the parents shouldn’t accompany the children to and from, and hover over them, wasting their money away.  An eighteen-year-old youth, in order to fulfill one’s own life, venturing out on one’s own, it’s the MOST meaningful thing in life.  In Europe or the U.S., a youth such as this may have already backpacked around the world, or worked odds and ends, to provide for one’s own tuitions, but, our beloved parents seemed to be more unwilling to let their babies head off to college, and would rather treat their grown children like babies, and had even hoped that the kids would choose schools closer to where the parents lived, so they could look after them better.

To tell the truth, if the parents are having troubles, letting the kids fly solo to school, how could they possible expect, these children will grow up, to be the pillars of the community?

Naturally, a lot of the schools could improve more on the processes of deciding on admissions, for instance, they should have separate offices for the applications, and personnel who handle the matters professionally.  And, the restrictions of the percentile markings from the examinations should also be more lenient, so more of those students from less fortunate backgrounds could get equal opportunities, so they could use the potentials to overcome their backgrounds, to give back to the community later on as they graduated.  But, all of these key determinants of success is based off of the real understanding of the purpose of education: grades are a minor part of life, we needed to help our young work hard to follow their paths, to become more practical in life.  But, all of these, more important values, we’re not, teaching them at all.

Because this application process had just been set up this past couple of years, whereas they’d used the exam grades, to determine WHICH major you are to study in in the past, and so, this, is all new to the students, as well as the parents, and so, the parents AND the students NEED to adapt themselves, quickly, to how this current system works, and that, would be one thing that those legislators failed to consider, before they’d implemented the new ideals.

The Legislations for Long-Term Care is STUCK Again, My Household is About to Get Shattered Here

This, would be the PRIMARY issue of concern, in all the world’s countries today, from the Front Page Sections, translated…

Based off of the news reported by UDN NEWS, the legislations for long-term care is stuck, in the legislative department again.  It’s such a pain, just like the scholars stated, if there are NO laws tailoring to the long-term care of the elderly population, a lot of the families in this society will shatter.  All of us, siblings are trapped, in this deep and painful abyss, and, there’s still, NO end in sight.

My mother is in her eighties, has serious long-term conditions, other than heading to the doctors regularly, she’d still needed around-the-clock care, but, we’re all, regular working class, and, although we wanted to hire someone to watch my mother, but, my mother feared that she’ll drag us all down, and wouldn’t allow us to spend the money, and so, we, the siblings that are all over the island took turns, looking after her.  Even so, whenever there is a period where nobody was able to go stay with her, when my mother is left all alone on her own, we couldn’t help but worry, but, there ARE, no better ways, it’s truly, hard!  If there’s long-term care programs, and when it is required for us to, we’re willing to pay the extra fees, to kick start this program, so, my mother could be looked after well, so we can all, take time off, it would be a wonder, and, none of us needed struggle as hard on the issues.

Seeing my mother’s conditions, I’d come to my senses, that I’m almost sixty, I deeply feared that I may become a burden to my two sons, and so, I’d bought myself some long-term care insurance, my other half wanted to do this too, but, unfortunately, he has a history of long-term illness, the insurance companies wouldn’t provide the coverages.  Ahhhhhhhh!  How long, this road, to providing the long-term care for elderly is, when will it actually start working?

And so, this, is still, NOT just happening here, it’s happening, in ALL the world’s countries, because as we live longer, more health issues will surface, take of dementia, there WASN’T the diagnosis of dementia say, back in the 1900s, was it?  Nope, because people didn’t live LONG enough to get there, but now, as the human age gets longer, there’s this desperate need, for long-term care, but, can we get it???
