No need to make excuses for these type of people unless you are also within the same circle. Oh wait you supported him didn't you? He's part of your pedo circle?I think it start from his experience with acting... already have weak upbringing and parenting, then mix up with wrong adult..
he get everything wrong about being himself, he follow wrong model.. definitely the model not parents
Read in a Wan Bao article many years ago that he was taken care of by his grandmother from young because parents busy working outside. He was the only child of an only child IIRC so you can roughly guess how his grandma treated him.
So the lesson here is, if you and your spouse have only one child and both of you have a growing career, is either one of you willing to put your career growth on pause to spend time with the child throughout his/her early childhood or leave him/her with your parents?
Having children is like Russian roulette, you'll never know how the child is going to turn out even if you are a helicopter parent.
Children will eventually have their own thinking that might not align with yours.
This is why before you want to have children, think properly first. If you are lucky your child might be the next jeff bezos but more often than not you will give birth to a char siew or a criminal.
Best is just to be single and fufill your needs in geylang or just have a girlfriend/wife without children. Get a dog instead.
Not to mention to raise a child is super expensive, you could use the money to buy a car or service your HDB loan instead lol.
i have 3 boys. 2 of them in sec sch - sec 3 and 1. the youngest in p6. all of them are in cat high. just worried for the second one cos he doesnt seem to like studying. always chatting with his friends on whatsapp, gaming, asking my helper to bring him go to the mall... he's grades are fine, just need to always ask/remind him if he's done with studying. lol. but its ok, we already have plans for him.
my wife and i have full time careers. pre-covid, i used to travel > 70% for the past decade. so should we still be worried? lol

Im only saying it may have had a part to play.
How people develop is nature and nurture. Nature is genetics. Nurture is not just parents. Can be the environment, major events that the person lived through etc...
They hate child molestors. You're right at the bottom of the social ladder. And he's Asian, which makes it worse. And he looks like a girl, which is even far worse.
He'll be deported quickly, if he's really lucky, or put into segregated housing if imprisoned. If not, then he may as well change sex when he's released.
Your boys are at the age when they start to think for themselves liao.
Amos was spoilt since he was in pre-school. Do you let your parents or in-laws babysit your boys full-time during weekdays?
My brother-in-law let his in-laws babysit his eldest daughter since she was a toddler and she developed serious 公主病.
They have a second child 2 years ago and looked after him themselves. General consensus among relatives is that he is not as spoilt and stubborn as his sis, making his sis lost favour among the adults in the family. Feeling unfair for her come to think of it.
I’m sure his parents are asking themselves the same qn Everyday![]()
