Sounds like you're unfamiliar with the Thai road rules (none)... unless you know the traffic system expectations from local drivers your chances of a sure collision are grossly enhanced and likely. Even if you are familiar with the local system it is not unheard for a local driver to target a farlang driver with a purpose of colliding in effort to gain a financial winfall by means of compesation. It's your choice... my suggestion, grab a taxi.
Now Now boys... My D*ck is bigger than both of yours. 38yrs. My advice is rent or buy but, always have somebody else pay the bill. There are ways of doing this... After 38yrs you learn things, so, get back to me in a few years and I'll tell you how. Now get on with life... we're all here to support each other, your personal squabbles are a waste of energy to the rest of us. Have a nice day 🙏
NO NO NO... do not do this, it makes the situation worse because she is well educated and well informed and well connected, you will enhance the headache 🤦
My first question is... does your daughter actually want to return to Ireland and participate in the family wedding event? Or is it that you feel she should, therefore you are commanding the mother release her into your custody (assuming the daughter is of a minor age). There is a huge difference between requesting her presence and participation and commanding her presence and participation.
Is this simply a bitter battle between each parent where the child picks up the tab for their squabbling and pays for it deeply with emotional trauma?
There are too many variables within this question without knowing the history of the family dynamics. An accurate and meaningful reply to your query is at best a guess or at worst would be prematurely negligent and irresponsible.
This reply may not help you towards a solution but, at least it should stimulate your thought process into solving the problem in a mature non selfish fashion that has your daughters best interest at heart. Best of luck Timmy, You got this.
