Wat U wan them to do...send their sons to war...lol...Originally posted by Mr Soh:Because i want him to suffer and know what is life. And to really use his head, to analyse situations be more mature. Hopefully he will be like the common man, the ordinary man who has gone thru the parts and parcels of life.
Recently my sis -in law who married a westerner returned to singapore to visit us. The son as i can see ill disciplined, expect a lots, complains and whines about how hot the weather is here ect.
Most foreigners i seen from 1st world nations have no discipline excluding the ones from lesser developed countries who come here as FT . They are not as bad.
Originally posted by depressed:that might be true, but you don't need NS for it. NS is a lifelong curse, and if things backfire that kid would be on a plane of no return.
Of coz NS is diff from working life...Originally posted by depressed:in other words, he would have one extra unwanted record to his life, if he ever been to DB or declare depression/gay he would have some problems finding some jobs.
not to mention the endless call-up, ippt and so on and so forth
and NS is different from working life
The whole notion that NS makes a person mature, tougher etc is a fallacy.Originally posted by Mr Soh:Because i want him to suffer and know what is life.

I agree. Because in working life u want to learn by making mistake? It will cost u more than in NS. at least in NS u learn the same but chances are given to u. Afterall if anything goes wrong, yr superior have to answer. That's the way of the rank system.Originally posted by Simple_Bear:Of coz NS is diff from working life...
NS prepares U for the more evil world outside...![]()
