Lovely people who abandoned their elder daughter to go on a life style shindig without consideration for how long they'd be away and the risk to the life of their unborn baby? That kinda lovely? Er hello. You'd have to go some to do something more selfish at the direct expensive of your own children. 'Nice people' don't do that. Nice people put their kids well being before their adult life style choices. 'Choices' being the operative word here.
Not to mention the reckless driving. Yes we all drive the wrong way down a dual carriageway cos we failed to pay attention to that degree?That's totally normal and everyday and could happen to anyone. It does all the time. Oh no wait, no it doesn't. And what's that about going for the lighter sentencing options rather than being a wally and insisting you challenge it and go to the higher court? If only Clive had taken good legal advice onboard? Think how things might have turned out then. But no Clive knew better. What a plank. Christ almighty.
This is all a bit more than just getting yourself into 'circumstances beyond your control'. This is about them knowing better than everyone else in some kind of self righteous crusade in pursuit of an anti-authority mindset. And that's worked out juuuussttt fiinnnnnnne on multiple occasions. Hmm most people just aren't that arrogant to ignore legal advice and rational arguments about why such behaviour isn't such a great plan.
They've been in control of whether to they end up in a right mess from the start, but they don't want to accept that responsibility like the rest of us quite clearly. You know what with being grown ups and all that. There's a perfectly valid reason why there isn't a beach birth industry. It's not just that they are free spirited and special and the rest of the world are boring and lacking in enlightenment.
That's not about not being kind. It's about being pissed off at this total lack of responsibility taking and faux shock about how it's all managed to go wrong. Yeah how DID that happen? Couldn't happen to a nicer couple my arse.
Its not being lovely people. It's about being fucking irresponsible people. Lovely people don't go on an expedition like this which will be a minimum of three months in ideal circumstances without sufficient funds and their other child and then expect others to pick up the pieces of their own fecklessness and be in complete disbelief that they have to follow laws and comply with regulations designed to stop child trafficking.
Yes. Klaxon time. The clue here is if you are falling foul of restrictions designed to stop child trafficking and are setting off that type of red type then your behaviour perhaps isn't in line with the best interests of your child(ren). Of course that's going to wind up with a bunch of people who are none too impressed. What the fuck else do think would happen? For them to be congratulated with the award of OBEs for parents of the year?
It's not that hard to grasp why people see fit to be harsh about this, yet you, Iuliia and Clive clearly seem bewildered at why other people might take issue with it. It is absolutely in the public interest to discourage such pillocky. The foreign office has enough to do without such idiocy. Never mind the child protection issues. They absolutely need investigating by social services.
Quite honestly if this was a normal set of circumstances that happen semi regularly maybe you'd have a bit of a point but it isn't. People don't do this in the first place for good reason. They don't have such complete disregard for international borders. They don't put themselves before their kids like this. They don't get caught out, cos they engage their bloody braincells before getting themselves into such a mess. Embassies are not there for the primary purpose of bailing out the hard of thinking, they are there for genuine problems.
Such reckless behaviour impacts on others strangely enough. Who IS going to pay for this mess in both the long term and short term? Law of unintended consequences and all that. Hope you are planning to support them with a rather large money transfer to bail them out of their, totally unpredictable and unfair, predicament like a good friend. Or maybe your love doesn't extend to coughing up three or four figure sums in the knowledge that they probably can't afford to pay you back. Is the lecture about how awful everyone else is for not being delighted at stepping in to 'save them' just got air and platitudes? Nope everyone else should 'be kind' pay for their ineptitude
Being nice about it, is just going to encourage more dickwads to do the same cos they saw how wonderful the idea was. So no I will not 'be kind' to please some notion that they've been massively hard done by and everyone else is just being mean by not shouting about how awful their circumstances are. Cos they aren't the bloody victims they are trying to make themselves out to be here. Why should anyone give multiple fucks? They didn't give fucks for anyone else when they swanned off to the beautiful sun kissed beaches. Na not having that guilt trip attempt being pushed back on the rest of the world to continue to abdicate responsibility for themselves.
Instead of demanding everyone else 'be kind' as a mantra for a better world, how about Iuliia and Clive start following other people's life philosophy of 'dont be a monumental self servicing dick in the first place' instead and see how that fits with karma and world harmony? How's that? Peace out.
