There is no audio and I can’t even make out if it is Aom and her hubby Art. The clip is not clear.
Nonetheless a person at youtube who posted a surveillance camera clip of possibly ‘Aom’ Piyada Akarasene and her hubby “Art’ Sara Jutharattanakul at a movie theater having a fist of words battle with a woman and her young son is saying Aom and her husband went out of line. According to the person, Aom and Art overacted when a mischievous 5 year old kicked Art behind the leg as he waited for his mother behind the movie snack counter. Once Art was kicked, both Art and Aom erupted with anger and a word brawl between them and the little boy’s mother began. Art called the little boy’s mother low class and a woman who doesn’t know how to discipline her child and that is why he is like this.
Art:”Prai (low class), vile, you don’t know how to discipline your child that is why he is spoiled. You should discipline your child once and awhile.”
As for Aom, she said some nasty things to the mother also. “He is a very ill-mannered child, how can he kick an adult like that? Do you even discipline him? He is really bad (spoiled).”
I gotta say that kid was a brat, he just went up to Art and kicked him for no reason. Watch the clip and you decide. From comments at pantip, sanook, and youtube, I think the majority of the people who have watched the clip, they are siding with Aom and Art on this one. Some are saying if that happened to me, I would have done the same. That kid is a brat. Though I did not read all the comments, some Thai netizens are blaming the mother for arguing with Aom and Art even though her son did wrong. It’s a tough call when there is no audio.
This video does no justice. They need to interview the cashier there; the one who was serving BOTH parties. Funny how no security came to break this argument; they all just stood there and carried on with their work as if nothing happened.
I’m sure that Art and Aom know their status and they wouldn’t just verbally abuse some kid or mother for that small kick, there must be something else. That kid man, if I was the mother I’d freakin slap him on the back of his head, no kidding. That kid was annoying, going around kicking the counter and stuff. Aom did respond that they had nothing against the child, it was the mother. The mother looks young, maybe that explains the lack of discipline. But we don’t even know if that’s even what they said since the audio is mute. Gosh this whole thing is so complicated, I wish I knew the details.
@Prissada: Seriously, you make it so dramatic. This is calling for a dicussion on this topic, for anyone who wants to drop a penny for the thought. You make it sound as if we are killing each other over the discussion. Goodness, this is the part where we comment and discuss about this topic. Of course it’s none of our business but what is the fun of it if no one is interested in this particular topic? I thin it would be very boring to just state your opinion and leave.
“I mean dang, look at all the time you guys spend writing a whole book report on this one issue that you can be spending your time doing other things”
–LOL that’s the fun part. We read people comments, maybe there would be something interesting to read about. See, you wanna watch lakorn but you are still here reading and writing comment like this. cough cough. Some people come back to this page/discussion because they want to hear what other has to say. Even you are still here and continue to read what other has to say. The point is that if this particular topic bothers you so much than you don’t have to return to the topic and tell people to stop the discussion…like you said, you are returning for “any episode caps”..If you have other things to occupy yourself with than -cough- don’t spoil those who are still interest in the topic.
I have nothing to say about this topic since I have already said my part. But you can’t deny those who want to…:P
OMG, can every body just calm down already? This is getting ridiculous. Whether who is at fault is none of our business. Every body will have his or her own opinion so let it go already. Trying to argue otherwise just makes ALL of you seem childish. What is done is done. We weren’t there to see the situation so THEREFORE we really have no insight as to what really happened. Trying to state something as a “matter of fact” form is just pointless in this case. Like I said, state your opinion and go… I mean dang, look at all the time you guys spend writing a whole book report on this one issue that you can be spending your time doing other things… like I don’t know… like maybe watching lakorn… or doing your homework… eating… something! LOL. I came on here to check if there was any episode caps and I still see this is a trending topic… wow LOL.
True that some kids are brattier than other kids but I really think that parents can help!!! My mom has always said, “kids are like a blank piece of paper. Whatever you draw on the blank piece of paper will be there.” so y not drawing something nice?
Why do people always bring culture into a discussion. No culture is better than another. geesh!
Kids will be kids. From what I gathered watching the video the kid was all over the place. Kicking here and there. If she discipline her kid then the kid would have stood there nicely and waited for his mother. However, like I said kids will be kids. The kick was an accident. He grabbed his feet and whoop it slipped and hit Art. The kid should have known to apologize if taught. But the kid looked so scared so, the mother should have apologize knowing what happened. Art & Aom should have laughed it off. But they seem too highly of themselves and resorted to putting the mother down. Art & Aom should apologize for that.
Aom’s side of the story: /watch?v=JFEIE3JUsQU
.
Heh.
is this the reason why they don’t have kids? or their not ready to have kids?
Aom and Art saying went a little too far. and the mom could just tell the kid to apologize. why make a big deal out of it? a 5 year? come on now… he is just a kid. my niece and nephew r his age and their naughty even if i discipline them. their brain doesn’t know what is suppose to be right or wrong. life is too short., get over it Aom&Art couple.
Couldn’t agree more with Sukura comment.
“so i should say it’s just accident and if the couple have enough love in their hearts, they should just say,” hey kiddo, be careful next time, okay! ” And that should be the end of it!”
The couple does not have an open heart. why can’t they just be the bigger person? simply as that, let go.
TOTALLY AGREE WITH VI–FINALLY THERE’S ONE PERSON WHO UNDERSTANDs MIDDLE GROUND. Way to go VI.
I’m sorry but I agree with Vi. And I’m Thai too. I don’t think culture should be considered in this situation. It’s something can be found and seen in general. I think the clip is quite blur but I do see how they react to the kid. And I don’t get why they bother so much on one kid ran across them. Why don’t they just let it go. Anyway, I’m still not sure it’s Aom & her husband.
Oh, just a note. When I said I could understand Thai, meaning Thai language. Just to clear this b4 someone assume that I mean: understand a Thai person. -cough cough.
@Kudaranai – Of course, I know that all Asian are not the same. You said that you are Thai and when your child hit someone you would apologized, which is normal and logical. This is what I’m referring to when I said “I know what lenses you are looking from”…It doesn’t have to be within the Thai culture because EVERYONE should find this a normal thing to do when your child hit or accidentally hit someone. Because we didn’t get any audio so we weren’t sure if the mom did try to apologize or not and you guys make it sound as if she didn’t. What I’m trying to say was that, based on Art’s behavior/body language, the mom might not get a chance to voice. Maybe Art had said something rude to anger her and she just gave up the apology and this lead the situation to get out of hand.”
“In our, and by our, I mean THAI culture, if MY child has bothered or acted out in public, it’s MY responsibility.” –Err. SORRY to disappoint you but I don’t believe this fall under only the THAI culture!!! Like I said, this is not the culture thing. I said that normally, one would take responsibility regardless of culture because it’s the normal thing to do. You make it sound as if ONLY THAI people know how to take responsibility for their action. You said you know you would, and I would too and many others would, so maybe this mom had try. Don’t you think? You said you are Thai and you know the culture so of course one would expect that the mom would too; she is Thai woman, is she not?
Secondly, even if you are Asian, White, Black, Hispanic or whatever, when one try to apologize but didn’t get a chance to before the other party attack you with something rude, I don’t think you have the heart to apology anymore. I’m saying this might be a possibility to consider for you people who didn’t think she had apology…I couldn’t think of any reason why she would not…like some people said, she’s a Thai woman, you would assume she know, right? Which lead to the possibility to consider that she might have or had try but didn’t get a chance? She looks like a pretty decent woman to me.
Again, Art’s body language, like he’s ready to jump on the woman, said a lot about his behavior. At least the woman has little body language. I did not claim about the body language part b/c it’s all there in the video. The mom did too but not as bad as Art. If he’s a gentleman he would take this as a calm man instead of a mad man where Aom had try to calm him down afterward but it didn’t seem to work.
“Also, I worked in a movie theater in Thailand, you won’t believe how easy it is to get access to security tapes. Even if you’re just selling popcorns, everyone had access to it.”
It’s hard to believe that everyone would have access to ‘security tapes’. I don’t believe it. Yeah, you worked in Movie Theater so you could say whatever but it’s still hard to believe. Why would ‘anyone’ has access to it unless it’s been authorize by management staff?… Well, it’s a different story if someone stole it from the security room and leaks it out to get money.
“It was only logical for people to assume that the mother posted this clip out of anger. You’re not Thai, you don’t get the context of what she posted.”
Sorry, but I don’t see any logical here. So, you are Thai and you know that she posted this here? What an interesting way to put it. Why are you so sure that she posted it just because of the context? Of course it would be logical for SOME people to assume that the mother posted the clip because of the context of it.
BUT don’t you think IT WOULD BE logical for SOME people to assume that someone else did it too? It might be someone else trying to make money or get attention because it involves celebrity. If one wants to get people attention he/she would put up such context, don’t you think? Which mean, it could be someone else posting this because what you are saying right now was directing that the mom did it because of anger? Why don’t you think that someone else would have done it because they want money or something? Or maybe just for fun?
“You took that title what the MOTHER posted to heart. You are not Thai, you don’t get the context of what she posted.” –I don’t care about the context. Oh, goodness, I didn’t pay attention to the context because I need to hear it before I believe it and we know there was no audio. FYI: I can understand Thai and if I were to hear the audio I would know what they are talking about. In all my responses, I have never quoted the context of what Lyn wrote. I have never referred to the context of how horrible Aom was for SCOLDING THE KID! No. I never had. I don’t know why you would think that I went along with the context when I have never referred to the comment Lyn translated.
FYI, the title could have been anyone who wanted to attract ATTENTION…Without considering other possibility, I think it’s silly and childish to think that the mom posted the clip. Of course, you had already believed that it was the mother without looking right or left…you wanted to walk straight ahead.
I’m not saying that she did not or did…I’m saying that you have to consider other possibility too. Because I don’t know that she did or did not post the clip, I’m not going ahead and said that she did post it just because of some silly context…goodness
Prissada’s comment stated, “The problem here is that mother thinks she’s in the right. She didn’t apologize. That’s why things got so escalated. Then she went and uploaded this clip to embarrass Aom and Art. It backfired big time.” –Again, like you SAID there was no audio so you cannot assume or make it a fact that the mom didn’t try and I had already stated above the possibility! ALSO, we did not know that the mom was the one who posted this, until you get your fact I don’t think it is right to assume. I know it is your opinion but what you said above is not an opinion but almost a fact you are stating.
@Vi – Not all Asian cultures are the same. That’s like implying that all South Americans are the same. Each and every country has their own unique cultures. You’re telling me that I’m saying these things as if I was actually there when you’re doing the EXACT same thing. You claim that Art has this ‘body language’, did you look at the mother? In our, and by our, I mean THAI culture, if MY child has bothered or acted out in public, it’s MY responsibility. I would apologize and take whatever crap they want to throw at me. That’s how our culture works. The reason Aom and Art were angry wasn’t because of a kick, it was because of how the mother was acting. Stop taking what the video said to heart. That’s not what happened.
.
Also, I worked in a movie theater in Thailand, you won’t believe how easy it is to get access to security tapes. Even if you’re just selling popcorns, everyone had access to it.
.
You’re saying that we don’t know if the mother posted this. But you all were already saying that “we’re so disappointed in Aom and Art” when we didn’t even know if it was them YET. Not until had Aom confirmed on twitter, not until I had posted that here. THEN we know it was already Aom. It was only logical for people to assume that the mother posted this clip out of anger. You’re not Thai, you don’t get the context of what she posted. You don’t get what kind of vulgar, and I’ll say it, LOW CLASS things she had posted. You’re getting the information second handedly.
.
You only see what you waned to see, which was “Art is a horrible for yelling at a 5 yearold” You took that title what the MOTHER posted to heart. If the uploader had written that “Aom SLAPPED a 5 yearold” in Thai and Lyn translated it, I can guarantee that at least 65% of you would’ve believed it without even watching the video.
The Bottom line: Can’t they all could just communicate without harassing each other? Asian or not, that’s not human.
To Vi: Why does it seem like you are getting so infuriated? Geez… let it go. I stated my opinion and that’s that. Just like you stated yours. AND ALSO… like I said at the end… if you know how to read a full comment… I said that it was my personal opinion, but at the same time who knows what really happened because there was no audio. ALL IN ALL, BOTH SIDES, no matter the situation was wrong. It was childish. I saw what I saw. You saw what you saw. AND THAT IS THAT. And the funny part about being Asian is that NOT ALL Asian cultures are the same. So I don’t know why you felt the need to bring that part up. Either way, in Thai society, WHICH the woman and her kid is living in THAILAND and not any where else, it is not okay for your kid to be going around kicking things… because for one, it can cause problems such as this. WHICH I don’t think should even be an issue because both sides blew it out of proportion. Whatever the situation is I can careless anymore… GEEZ… let others state their opinion without being so defensive to back yours. Take it easy. Take a chill pill LOL. You don’t know what happened either so relax. Anyways. Have a good day everybody and relax… take a sip of lemonade and enjoy the cooling weather… LOL. I’m gonna go watch Faed Na Ya now so sayornara.
