I would imagine that they will both learn a lesson that they both richly deserve. It seems that at the moment, the "victim" has yet to learn his.

Saw in the news the farrang family is getting threatening phone calls.

I don't see anything that was worth all this mess here.

So is the school he works at if they take him back. All for a few balloons or was it Farang pride?

Pride, what a wonderful thing to have, pride in your work, pride in your beliefs, pride in after all this time in Thailand I still drive a car like I was taught, open the indicator when turning, put your seat belt on, dont drive at 120kph in built up areas, dont overtake on blind spots and pray to Budha, not like some westerners who stay here who believe or wish they are Thai, put their brains in there pockets and throw their common sense out the window.

Pride in what you do, pride, I love it because with it comes self esteem.

Not directed at anyone in particular,

Humility.

Be humble, do not act (with locals) with arrogance or pomposity or a superiority complex.
