This thread is long but a little bleak, with few users in action!
Mr. Behnam, are you now on the fast Ruja month?
I hear Saudi Arabia, the rival of China in the coming FIFA World Cup qualifier two or three days later, is now having an upside down schedule in preparation of the game. They do not eat anything in the daytime?! What the f**k is that?
The diet habit is so weird! What about the poor man and the infants?
Recently I saw on the social media a guy from Iraq, named Old Wang, is traveling around China eating good foods in the small but web-famed shops. He can speak quite good Chinese and has many followers online. He was immediately recognized by local people when he arrived in the city of mine. But each time when he ordered, he asked the waiter for beef or other cow products, so he missed many delicious foods based on pigs or pork.
Do you know the hot pot of China? There is a famous brand Haidilao (Salvage from the sea bottom) with many eaters. But recently two teenagers, after eating full, stood on the table and urinated into the hot pot, the picture of which was later posted in their social media account. This shocking act has caused great trouble to the restaurant, which has decided to compensate for all the consumers who ate in the shop around the time, amounting to 8 million dollars. The naughty boys will bear the cost if they lose the suit. Their parents who are made crazy have knelt on the ground for forgiveness.

Dear SourRiceNoodle,
Thank you for your message—it's quite a mix of topics, and I'd like to respond to each point.
First, you mentioned that the thread feels long and a little bleak with few users in action. I understand how discussions can sometimes lose momentum. What do you think could make it more engaging? Maybe sharing personal experiences or asking open-ended questions could help spark more interaction. What topics do you think would get people talking?
You also asked if I'm observing the fast during Ramadan (referred to as Ruja month). Yes, I am fasting, and it's a meaningful time for me. I noticed your comment about Saudi Arabia's fasting schedule and their preparation for the FIFA World Cup qualifier. While it might seem unusual to some, fasting during Ramadan is a deeply spiritual practice for Muslims. It's not just about abstaining from food and drink during the day—it's also about reflection, gratitude, and self-discipline. There are exceptions, too. For example, children, the elderly, the sick, pregnant or nursing women, and travelers are not required to fast if it would harm their health or well-being. They can make up the missed fasts later or provide food for the needy instead. Islam prioritizes compassion and practicality in such situations.
You expressed surprise about fasting and wondered about the impact on "the poor man and the infants." It's true that fasting can be challenging, but many cultures have systems in place to support those who might struggle. For instance, communities often come together to provide meals for the less fortunate during Ramadan, especially at sunset (Iftar). It's a time of generosity and solidarity. Do you think there are ways to better understand how different societies adapt to such practices? It might help us appreciate their resilience and creativity.
I also enjoyed hearing about Old Wang's journey through China—it sounds like he's having quite an adventure! You mentioned he avoids pork, which is likely due to religious or personal beliefs. In Islam, eating pork is strictly forbidden. This rule comes from the Quran, where Allah (God) explicitly prohibits the consumption of pork and pork products. The Quran states: "He has only forbidden to you dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah." (Quran 2:173). The reasons for this prohibition are both spiritual and health-related. Pork is considered haram (forbidden) because it is seen as impure, and there are also health risks associated with consuming pork, such as parasites and diseases. This is why Muslims, like Old Wang in your example, avoid pork and seek alternatives like beef, chicken, or vegetarian options. Instead of seeing it as missing out, we could celebrate how he's finding delicious alternatives. Have you ever tried adapting your diet while traveling to respect local customs? It can be a fun way to learn about new cultures!
Finally, the incident at Haidilao hot pot is shocking and disappointing. Such behavior is disrespectful to the restaurant and its customers. It's good that the restaurant is taking responsibility, but it's also a reminder of how important it is to teach young people about respect and accountability. What do you think could be done to prevent such incidents in the future? Do you think social media plays a role in encouraging or discouraging such behavior?
Overall, your post raises some interesting points, and I appreciate the discussion. Let's keep the conversation going—what are your thoughts on how we can better understand and appreciate the diversity around us?
All the best,

Professor Behnam, you are very smart person and you know so much!
Ruja month is not an accurate expression, but something I heard from a friend, who worked before in Bangladesh. Your sharing of the holy bible of Islam and the tradition of Islam is interesting. I think it is necessary for us who do not know about this religion to have a read. Tibetans do not eat fish, so I think they may have held the similar idea of muslims not eating pigs. In the provinces of Guangdong and Guangxi of China, people eat whatever that have four feet except chairs as well as whatever that can fly except airplanes. Perhaps muslims can change their diet with the development of the world, because pigs are raised on farms and fed with clean foods, most of which are taken from the leftovers of restaurants or canteens. The taste of the pork is as good as beef or even better. As far as I know, Germany is the only European or Western country who share the diet of eating pork with China. Chinese working people did not kill bull or ox or cow for meat because they help relieve their working load.

Re: Let's learn together!
Let me put on the sequel. The peeing incident of Shanghai has new development. All customers concerned have received the compensation from the restaurant ten times their paid amount. A man got 5k yuan for that but his fellow eaters claimed he should split the money because if it is a compensation for the potential harm done they were victims too. But that man did not agree to that, he argued that he was the one who made the payment and that other eaters were his guests who did not make any payment. Debates have been made online about the rights of the real consumers in that case.

Re: Let's learn together!
Hey everyone,
I’m a business owner, and I want to improve my English, especially for writing blogs, emails, and professional content. My English is not very strong, and I sometimes struggle with grammar and sentence structure.
Since I run a business, I want to write better blogs, Website content for cookssimplepainting.com and maybe even social media posts to attract more customers. But I often feel stuck when trying to put my thoughts into words.
I would love to hear your advice! How can I practice and improve my writing skills? Are there any good tools, courses, or tips that helped you?
Looking forward to your suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Dear SourRiceNoodle,
Thank you for your kind message and for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate your compliment and your interest in different cultures and religions. You are right that "Ruja month" is not an accurate term. In Farsi (Persian), the word for fasting is "Ruzeh" (روزه), and the holy month of fasting in Islam is called "Ramazan" (رمضان). It's very possible that the term "Ruja month" is a mispronunciation or a mix-up with the Farsi word "Ruzeh."
Your observation about Tibetans not eating fish and comparing it to Muslims not eating pork is very thoughtful. It shows how different cultures have unique dietary practices based on their beliefs and traditions. I also found your comment about the eating habits in Guangdong and Guangxi quite amusing and fascinating! The way you described it—"eating whatever has four feet except chairs and whatever can fly except airplanes"—made me laugh and also made me very curious. What are some of the most unusual or unique foods you've encountered in those regions? Do people there still follow these eating traditions today, or have things changed over time? I'd love to hear more about the food culture there and if you've tried any of these dishes yourself!
Regarding your suggestion about Muslims changing their diet, I understand your point about pigs being raised on farms and fed clean food. However, for Muslims, not eating pork is not just about hygiene but also a religious rule that has been followed for centuries. It is an important part of their faith, so it is unlikely to change easily.
It's interesting that you mentioned Germany as a country that shares China's love for pork. I didn't know that Chinese working people avoided killing cows because they helped with work. This shows how practical and respectful traditional practices can be. Do you think these traditional practices are still common in modern China? Also, what other unique food habits or traditions have you noticed in your region? I'd love to hear more about your experiences and thoughts!
Thank you again for your message. It's always a pleasure to discuss different cultures and traditions with you.

Haidilao Teenagers Urinate in Hot Pot Incident!
SourRiceNoodle wrote: ↑March 18th, 2025, 10:23 am
Do you know the hot pot of China? There is a famous brand Haidilao (Salvage from the sea bottom) with many eaters. But recently two teenagers, after eating full, stood on the table and urinated into the hot pot, the picture of which was later posted in their social media account. This shocking act has caused great trouble to the restaurant, which has decided to compensate for all the consumers who ate in the shop around the time, amounting to 8 million dollars. The naughty boys will bear the cost if they lose the suit. Their parents who are made crazy have knelt on the ground for forgiveness.
Hi again SourRiceNoodle,
Thanks for sharing that story about Haidilao—it's really shocking! I have a few questions because I'm curious about the details.
1. Why did the restaurant decide to pay 8 million dollars in compensation if the contaminated food wasn't served to anyone? It seems like the boys who did this should be the ones responsible for paying, not the restaurant. Did they face any consequences?
2. How did the restaurant find out about the incident? Was it because the boys posted the pictures on social media, or did someone in the restaurant notice it happening?
3. How did the customers react when they found out? Were there any legal actions taken against the teenagers?
4. Do you think this incident will have a long-term impact on Haidilao's reputation, or will people continue to trust the brand?
I'd love to hear more about what happened and how things are being handled. It's such a strange and unfortunate situation!
Looking forward to your reply!

Haidilao Compensation!

Dear SitangCampus,
I hope you're doing well! It's always great to hear from you.
This situation is getting more complicated, and it's interesting to see how the compensation has caused so much debate. If the money is for the harm or stress caused by the incident, it seems fair that everyone there should get a share. The man who got 5,000 yuan might have the right to keep it because he paid the bill, but it feels unfair to his friends who were also there. If I were him, I'd probably share the money to keep things friendly, but I understand why he might want to keep it. Haidilao did a lot to make customers happy by giving out compensation, even though it wasn't their fault. This shows they care about their reputation, but it also makes me wonder if they should have made the teenagers pay instead. I'm curious—what do most people online think? Should the man share the money, or is it okay for him to keep it? Do you think Haidilao handled this well, or should they have done something different? What's your opinion?

Society Reflects Values and Beliefs of People!
Dear friends,
Society is like a mirror that reflects the values, beliefs, and actions of the people who live in it. Every aspect of a society—whether it is the crime rate, the cleanliness of the environment, the level of corruption, or even the way people treat one another—shows what its people truly care about. These factors are not random; they are the result of countless choices made by individuals every day. In this essay, we will explore how different aspects of society reveal the actions and values of its people, including the fact that actions speak louder than words and that being two-faced cannot be hidden when actions are under a microscope.
One of the most visible reflections of a society's values is its crime rate. In a society where people value honesty, respect, and fairness, crime rates tend to be lower. This is because individuals are more likely to follow laws and treat others with kindness, not out of fear of punishment, but because they believe it is the right thing to do. On the other hand, in a society where people prioritize selfishness or lack empathy, crime rates may rise. For example, theft, violence, and other crimes often occur when people feel disconnected from their community or when they believe their needs are more important than the rights of others. Therefore, the level of crime in a society is a direct reflection of how much its people value justice and compassion.
Another important factor is the cleanliness and care of the environment. A society that values nature and sustainability will have clean streets, well-maintained parks, and efforts to reduce pollution. People in such societies take responsibility for their actions, such as disposing of trash properly, recycling, and conserving resources. They understand that their actions affect not only themselves but also future generations. In contrast, a society that neglects its environment often reflects a lack of care or responsibility. Litter, pollution, and destruction of natural resources show that people prioritize convenience or short-term gains over the long-term health of the planet. The state of the environment, therefore, reveals how much a society values responsibility and stewardship.
Corruption and bribery are also strong indicators of a society's values. In a society where people value integrity, transparency, and fairness, corruption is less likely to thrive. Leaders and citizens alike will work to create systems that are fair and just, and they will hold each other accountable for their actions. However, in a society where greed and power are prioritized over honesty, corruption can become widespread. Bribery, for example, often occurs when people believe that money or influence can override rules and fairness. The level of corruption in a society shows how much its people value honesty and equality over personal gain.
Education and healthcare are also reflections of a society's values. A society that invests in education and healthcare shows that it values the well-being and development of its people. It demonstrates a belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and live a healthy life. On the other hand, a society that neglects these areas may reflect a lack of concern for the less fortunate or a focus on short-term profits over long-term benefits. The quality of education and healthcare in a society reveals how much its people value equality, opportunity, and compassion.
Traffic behavior is another fascinating reflection of a society's values. On the streets, people often act very differently than they do in face-to-face interactions. For example, it is common for people to say "after you" when entering a door, showing politeness and respect. However, the same person might become aggressive or impatient behind the wheel, refusing to let other drivers merge or cutting them off in traffic. This contrast reveals a lot about human behavior. In personal interactions, people often feel a sense of accountability and courtesy because they are directly facing another person. However, in the anonymity of a car, some people feel less responsible for their actions and more focused on their own convenience. Traffic behavior, therefore, shows how much a society values patience, respect, and consideration for others, even when no one is watching.
The saying "actions speak louder than words" is especially true when examining society. People can say all the right things, but their true values are revealed through their actions. For example, someone might claim to care about the environment but continue to litter or waste resources. Similarly, a leader might talk about fairness and justice but engage in corrupt practices behind the scenes. Being two-faced—saying one thing and doing another—cannot be hidden when actions are under a microscope. Over time, actions always reveal the truth about what people truly believe and value. This is why it is so important for individuals to align their actions with their words. A society where people act with integrity and consistency is one that can truly thrive.
Finally, the way people treat one another in everyday life is a powerful reflection of a society's values. In a society where kindness, respect, and empathy are valued, people are more likely to help each other, resolve conflicts peacefully, and build strong communities. Acts of generosity, volunteering, and supporting those in need are common. In contrast, a society where people are indifferent or hostile toward one another reflects a lack of connection and care. The way people interact with each other shows how much they value relationships and community.
In conclusion, every aspect of society—crime rates, environmental cleanliness, levels of corruption, education, healthcare, traffic behavior, and daily interactions—reveals the values and actions of its people. A society is not just a collection of individuals; it is a shared responsibility. When people choose to act with honesty, kindness, and responsibility, society becomes safer, cleaner, and more just. On the other hand, when people prioritize selfishness or neglect their duties, society suffers. The good news is that change is always possible. By encouraging positive values and actions, individuals can help create a society that reflects the best of what humanity has to offer. Even small changes, like being more patient and considerate on the road or aligning actions with words, can make a big difference in building a better society for everyone. Actions truly do speak louder than words, and a society built on genuine values will always shine brighter than one built on empty promises.
What do you think about the idea that society reflects the values and actions of its people? Do you agree that actions speak louder than words, and that being two-faced cannot be hidden when actions are closely examined? How do you see these principles playing out in your own community—whether it's in traffic behavior, environmental care, or the way people treat one another?

Behnam, 20 March, 2025
Society is like a mirror that reflects the values, beliefs, and actions of the people who live in it. Every aspect of a society—whether it is the crime rate, the cleanliness of the environment, the level of corruption, or even the way people treat one another—shows what its people truly care about. These factors are not random; they are the result of countless choices made by individuals every day. In this essay, we will explore how different aspects of society reveal the actions and values of its people, including the fact that actions speak louder than words and that being two-faced cannot be hidden when actions are under a microscope.
One of the most visible reflections of a society's values is its crime rate. In a society where people value honesty, respect, and fairness, crime rates tend to be lower. This is because individuals are more likely to follow laws and treat others with kindness, not out of fear of punishment, but because they believe it is the right thing to do. On the other hand, in a society where people prioritize selfishness or lack empathy, crime rates may rise. For example, theft, violence, and other crimes often occur when people feel disconnected from their community or when they believe their needs are more important than the rights of others. Therefore, the level of crime in a society is a direct reflection of how much its people value justice and compassion.
Another important factor is the cleanliness and care of the environment. A society that values nature and sustainability will have clean streets, well-maintained parks, and efforts to reduce pollution. People in such societies take responsibility for their actions, such as disposing of trash properly, recycling, and conserving resources. They understand that their actions affect not only themselves but also future generations. In contrast, a society that neglects its environment often reflects a lack of care or responsibility. Litter, pollution, and destruction of natural resources show that people prioritize convenience or short-term gains over the long-term health of the planet. The state of the environment, therefore, reveals how much a society values responsibility and stewardship.
Corruption and bribery are also strong indicators of a society's values. In a society where people value integrity, transparency, and fairness, corruption is less likely to thrive. Leaders and citizens alike will work to create systems that are fair and just, and they will hold each other accountable for their actions. However, in a society where greed and power are prioritized over honesty, corruption can become widespread. Bribery, for example, often occurs when people believe that money or influence can override rules and fairness. The level of corruption in a society shows how much its people value honesty and equality over personal gain.
Education and healthcare are also reflections of a society's values. A society that invests in education and healthcare shows that it values the well-being and development of its people. It demonstrates a belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and live a healthy life. On the other hand, a society that neglects these areas may reflect a lack of concern for the less fortunate or a focus on short-term profits over long-term benefits. The quality of education and healthcare in a society reveals how much its people value equality, opportunity, and compassion.
Traffic behavior is another fascinating reflection of a society's values. On the streets, people often act very differently than they do in face-to-face interactions. For example, it is common for people to say "after you" when entering a door, showing politeness and respect. However, the same person might become aggressive or impatient behind the wheel, refusing to let other drivers merge or cutting them off in traffic. This contrast reveals a lot about human behavior. In personal interactions, people often feel a sense of accountability and courtesy because they are directly facing another person. However, in the anonymity of a car, some people feel less responsible for their actions and more focused on their own convenience. Traffic behavior, therefore, shows how much a society values patience, respect, and consideration for others, even when no one is watching.
The saying "actions speak louder than words" is especially true when examining society. People can say all the right things, but their true values are revealed through their actions.

This is why it is so important for individuals to align their actions with their words. A society where people act with integrity and consistency is one that can truly thrive.

Acts of generosity, volunteering, and supporting those in need are common. In contrast, a society where people are indifferent or hostile toward one another reflects a lack of connection and care.

Aftershock
1. Why did the restaurant decide to pay 8 million dollars in compensation if the contaminated food wasn't served to anyone? It seems like the boys who did this should be the ones responsible for paying, not the restaurant. Did they face any consequences?
Answer: The restaurant first tried to cover this up by issuing warnings to web users that any spreading of the "rumor" (that two boys have peeed in the food) will lead to legal action from the restaurant parent company, but later realizing that it will cause bigger trouble after the restaurant has been exposed about other problems in other cases, it changed its tactic to offer uncalled-for favors to the customers in connection with the incident,with the cost to be borne by the two culprits, which will be payable to the restaurant through a lawsuit.
2. How did the restaurant find out about the incident? Was it because the boys posted the pictures on social media, or did someone in the restaurant notice it happening?
Answer: The incident was made public by these two teenagers themselves, who posted the video online to show off their unusual aura at a young but disobedient age and were not aware it would backfire.
3. How did the customers react when they found out? Were there any legal actions taken against the teenagers?
Answer: Most of the customers did not realize it would be a serious matter from which they could benefit, except it was really disgusting. However, they would like it to become a thing of enduring interest in their dull life.
4. Do you think this incident will have a long-term impact on Haidilao's reputation, or will people continue to trust the brand?
Answer: In the age of mobile internet, people have shorter memory than ever, being pushed forward or backward or in the direction by the strong influence of capitals. Last time when South Korea deployed the American anti-missile system in its territory, Chinese people threatened to boycott all Korean products and services, the same happened when Japan discharged the nuclear waste water into the ocean. But more Chinese people chose to go against the trend because they would have cheaper airplane fare and prices for goods and services while traveling to Japan and South Korea during the boycott period.

Why Differences Enrich Life, But Rapid Changes Can Strain Relationships?
Dear friends,
Differences between people are like the colors on a painter's palette. Without a variety of colors, a painting would be dull and lifeless. In the same way, differences in thoughts, opinions, and personalities add flavor and excitement to life. They challenge us to see the world from new perspectives and help us grow as individuals. However, while differences can be the "spice of life," they can also create tension, especially when changes happen too quickly. This tension often leads to struggles in relationships, and in some cases, even divorce. So, why do differences enrich life, but rapid changes make relationships unbearable? Let's explore this idea further.
First, differences make life exciting because they bring variety. Imagine a world where everyone thought, acted, and looked the same. It would be like listening to the same song on repeat—it might be pleasant at first, but over time, it would become monotonous. Differences introduce new ideas, experiences, and emotions, making life dynamic and engaging. For example, in a marriage, partners often have different strengths and weaknesses. One might be more organized, while the other is more creative. These differences can complement each other, creating a balanced and fulfilling relationship.
However, the problem arises when these differences change too quickly. Think of a relationship as a boat on a lake. Smooth, gentle waves are manageable; the boat can adjust and stay afloat. But if the waves suddenly become rough and unpredictable, the boat may struggle to stay steady. Similarly, when one person in a relationship changes their behavior, values, or priorities rapidly, it can feel like a storm for the other person. Humans naturally seek stability and predictability. Rapid changes can make people feel insecure, confused, or even betrayed, especially if they don't understand the reasons behind the changes.
For example, imagine a couple where one partner suddenly decides to quit their job, move to a new city, or adopt a completely different lifestyle without discussing it first. The other partner might feel left behind or overwhelmed by the sudden shift. Even if the change itself is not inherently bad, the speed at which it happens can strain the relationship. On the other hand, if the same changes are introduced gradually and with open communication, the couple can adapt together. Slow changes are like a gentle slope—easier to climb than a steep, sudden hill.
Another reason rapid changes are hard to tolerate is that they can feel like a loss of control. Humans are creatures of habit, and we like to feel that we can predict and influence our environment. When someone close to us changes rapidly, it can feel like the ground beneath us is shifting. This unpredictability can lead to frustration, anxiety, and even resentment. In contrast, smooth changes allow people to process and adapt at their own pace, maintaining a sense of control and stability.
In conclusion, differences between people are essential for a vibrant and exciting life. They add depth and richness to our experiences, much like different colors in a painting. However, the way these differences evolve over time is crucial. Rapid changes can feel like a storm, rocking the boat of a relationship and making it hard to stay afloat. On the other hand, slow and smooth changes are like gentle waves, allowing both individuals to adjust and grow together. The key is balance—embracing differences while managing the pace of change. After all, life is not about avoiding differences or changes, but about navigating them with understanding, patience, and communication.
What do you think? Do you believe differences make life more exciting, or do they sometimes create too much tension? How do you handle rapid changes in your relationships? Share your thoughts and experiences—I'd love to hear your perspective!

Dear SourRiceNoodle,
Thank you so much for answering my questions! Your explanations were really helpful and gave me a better understanding of what happened. I just have a few small follow-up questions if you don't mind:
1. Did the restaurant take any steps to improve food safety or customer trust after this incident?
2. What kind of legal consequences did the teenagers face? Were they fined or punished in any other way?
Your answers were great, but I'm just curious to know a little more. Thanks again for your help!
Also, your answer to question 4 made me laugh!
It's so true—people's memories are short, and trends change so fast. I guess it's hard to stay mad when there's a good deal on airplane tickets or sushi! You're right about how capital influences everything. Great point!
All the best,

Re: Let's learn together!
Oh, My God!
After writing a long piece, I found that the system said I did not log in! And all the materials I have written with great enthusiasm vanish.
So now at the moment, I need to have a rest and cannot give anything interesting for Mr. Behnam and other friends.

Cleanliness of environment
I read the long essay of Prof Behnam and would like to give my two cents as follows:
Cleanliness of the environment is very important and can be a standard of high quality life. Looking to India, you know I am not lying. The local people are having a bad life because they can pee and poo here and there outdoors like the animals without any embarrassment,making the environment a lousy and stink place. They also have their bath in the river full of trash. The foods made by the street are hard to determine the raw materials and the cooking method, and they are ofter served to you with the hands that God only knows whether touching the anal or the testicles of the waiter himself a second before. It is no surprise for you to eat one of the flies in your mouth that keep circling the delicious food.
I saw the above in the videos posted by web users who traveled there, giving advice that if you do not like the local food you can always invite your friends to enjoy them. Laugh out loud!

Hi SourRiceNoodle,
Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that happened! It's really frustrating when you put time and effort into writing something, and then it disappears like that. I completely understand how you feel—it's happened to me before too, and it's so disappointing.
Please take your time to rest and don't worry about writing anything right now. When you feel ready, we'll be here to hear your thoughts. Your contributions are always valuable, so don't let this discourage you. Looking forward to hearing from you again when you're ready!

Hi SitangCampus,
Thank you for reading my essay and sharing your thoughts. I'm happy you took the time to write a comment.
You said cleanliness is very important for a good life. I agree. A clean place shows how much people care about their environment. But in some parts of the world, keeping things clean can be hard because of problems like poverty or lack of resources, and overpopulation. It's not always about people not caring—it's often about not having the tools or systems to fix the issue.
You also talked about street food and hygiene. Different places have different ways of doing things. What might seem strange to us could be normal somewhere else. Street food is a big part of many cultures, and while hygiene standards can vary, it's good to remember that these practices are often shaped by local traditions and conditions. Videos from travelers sometimes show only the bad parts, so it's important to keep an open mind.
Your joke about sharing food with friends was funny! Humor can make serious topics easier to talk about. But we should also be careful not to hurt anyone's feelings or spread stereotypes. It's always good to be kind and respectful when talking about other cultures.
In my essay, I wanted to show how society reflects the values and beliefs of its people. Your comment adds an interesting point about how these values affect things like cleanliness and food. I agree these are important topics, and they show how much work can still be done in some places.
Thank you again for your feedback. I really appreciate your thoughts, and I'm glad we can talk about this. Let's keep the conversation going—I'd love to hear more from you!

Thank you for reading my essay and sharing your thoughts. I'm happy you took the time to write a comment.
You said cleanliness is very important for a good life. I agree. A clean place shows how much people care about their environment. But in some parts of the world, keeping things clean can be hard because of problems like poverty or lack of resources, and overpopulation. It's not always about people not caring—it's often about not having the tools or systems to fix the issue.
You also talked about street food and hygiene. Different places have different ways of doing things. What might seem strange to us could be normal somewhere else. Street food is a big part of many cultures, and while hygiene standards can vary, it's good to remember that these practices are often shaped by local traditions and conditions. Videos from travelers sometimes show only the bad parts, so it's important to keep an open mind.

Spare the rod spoil the kid
1. Did the restaurant take any steps to improve food safety or customer trust after this incident?
Answer: Apparently it has to do something under the current pressure, but what it will do to ensure the food safety is hard to judge. In our country high officials do not care too much about the life and death of average people because they have their special supply chain of food and medicine.
2. What kind of legal consequences did the teenagers face? Were they fined or punished in any other way?
Answer: Of course the boys and their parents have to bear the cost so incurred. Such trouble-making kids are known in China as "Bear Kids", and their parents, if still trying to defend them knowing them they are wrong, are known as "Bear Parents". They derive their names from the fact that when a bear wants to steal honey from a beehive it doesn't care about being stung, but in the case of human beings, the victim may die from the bite.
I have to cut short my answer, for fear that it may lose itself again. See you next time.

Re: Spare the rod spoil the kid
Hi SourRiceNoodle,
I just saw your post about "Spare the rod, spoil the child." What a wise and interesting topic! I've never heard this phrase before, but it sounds like it has a deep meaning. Could you tell me more about where it comes from? Is it from a book, a culture, or maybe a religious teaching?
Also, I'd love to know your thoughts on it. Do you think it's still relevant today, or are there better ways to teach kids discipline?
Great choice for a post—I'm excited to learn more from you!

Bear Kids
Bear children are a serious problems in China. More and more cases like that are now made known to the public thanks to the widespread of mobile internet. They made the compartment of train noisy or kicked the back of the front seat incessantly to disturb or annoy the fellow passenger. They run like mad in the busy restaurant. They pelt whatever at hand to each other without considering other people around.
This morning when I read the phone I found the video in which a boy of Hainan Province of China was saved by anglers on sea. He was in a toy boat and had drifted over 30km overnight. He was trying to angling for some squids but got lost and had to spend the whole dark night carried away by the flowing water of the sea. In the tradition of angling world, no anglers will go home empty-handed, and this time they got a big bonus.
Earlier during the Chinese New Year, a boy of Sichuan Province of China threw a firecracker into a septic tank and the resultant huge explosion wrecked the three or four luxury cars parked nearby. His parents and grandparents all knelt down on the floor begging for mercy from the car owners.
Two criminals at large decided to turn themselves in to the police after a meal. But they were troubled many times by a neighboring naughty boy who kept throwing tissue paper and small appetite food into their hot pot. His father not only did not attempt to stop his kid's misbehavior but also threatened the victims. Then the two men could not help themselves but killed the boy by putting his head right into the very hot pot. Many web users comment that it is a shame these two guys were ruined as they could have had a different and better future.

Hi again SourRiceNoodle,
Thank you for answering my questions! Your explanation was very interesting, and I learned a lot from it. It's sad to hear that high officials in your country don't seem to care much about ordinary people's safety. Do you think things will ever change in the future? Or are there any groups or people trying to make a difference when it comes to food safety?
Also, the idea of "Bear Kids" and "Bear Parents" is new to me, but it makes sense. It sounds like a big problem when parents don't teach their kids to take responsibility for their actions. Do you think this is a common issue in your country? What do you think could be done to help parents and kids behave better in such situations?
I really enjoyed reading your answers, and I hope you can write more next time! Let me know if there's anything you'd like to ask me too.
All the best,

Dear SitangCampus,
Thank you so much for sharing these thought-provoking stories with us. I really appreciate you taking the time to highlight these important issues about children's behavior in our society today. Your examples really help show why this is such a pressing matter.
The stories you mentioned - from the noisy "bear children" in public spaces to the tragic hot pot incident - all point to serious problems with how some children are being raised these days. It's particularly concerning when parents don't step in to correct bad behavior, as this teaches kids that their actions have no consequences.
Why are we seeing so many behavior problems?
There seem to be several key reasons:
1. Many parents are too busy with work to properly supervise and teach their children
2. Grandparents who help raise kids often spoil them too much
3. Technology overuse means kids learn behavior from screens rather than real social interactions
4. With most families having just one child, parents struggle to set proper boundaries
5. Children spend more time online where they pick up bad habits and attitudes
The technology aspect is especially worrying. Many kids now ignore their parents because they're constantly glued to screens, getting their information and values from social media instead of their families. This screen addiction makes them disrespectful and harms their ability to develop real social skills.
Thank you again for bringing up this crucial discussion. I'd love to hear your thoughts: What do you think would be the most effective way to address these issues? Should there be more parenting education? Stricter rules in public spaces? Maybe schools should play a bigger role in teaching proper behavior? Looking forward to continuing our conversation about this important topic!

Re: Let's learn together!
Hello!
That Mr. has provided some information that I wished to give, because we are from the same country, so most of the things we see eye to eye with each other or it might be due to the same influence.
About the idiom Spare the Rod and Spare the Child, it seems to be taken out of the Bible, and the same logic can be found in the family education system of many good families of China, the exact wording being "A child cannot be a success without being hit with violence". Young children are like untamed animals, disciplines must be reinforced through effective means, and reasoning with words doesn't seem to be a good option.
It is a heavy topic. Parenting is not easy, having too much to take into account, which has led to the reduced birth rate and the rate of marriage in China. India has exceeded China in terms of population. China has felt the crisis but so far hasn't put any effective measures in place to handle the problem of less youth and more aged.
I am only a green hand in the society, so even I worry my head to lose hair, it will not make any difference to the whole situation. At the moment, I think I should care more about my pocket, about when it will be full of money, or enough money for survival in a world of bleakness and depression.

Hello SourRiceNoodle!
I see what you mean about discipline and parenting. The saying "Spare the rod, spoil the child" does come from old traditions, and some families in China still believe strict discipline is necessary. But do you think younger generations today agree with this, or are they leaning toward gentler methods?
You're right—raising kids is a heavy responsibility, and costs are a huge worry. If the government offered better support (like free education or childcare), do you think it would encourage more people to start families?
About the population crisis, it's surprising India has surpassed China! Do you think China's slow response is because the problem is too complex, or just lack of good ideas?
For us, though, focusing on our own survival makes sense. What's your plan to stay ahead in this tough economy? Maybe we can swap tips! And hey—what helps you stay hopeful when things feel bleak?
All the best,

Parenting
With many cases of Bear Kids and their stupid parents, there are also many wise parents who have raised smart children.
One of the reasons may be the vision of the parents.
If they do not know why their children exist in the world or they put their lives together, then they will try to give protection to the children as much as possible.
Today's world is full of dangers, and you do not know which is coming first, tomorrow or accident. So parents in China should not be blamed when they escort their baby every day to and from the school. I don't know if you have experienced such situations in your country or not. At such time of the day, the school gate and the around area are a nightmare to local people who are not the parents of the schoolkids and to the traffic police.
The anxiety cannot be groundless. Too many factors are contributing to the irrational behavior of the parents of young kids.

Hi SitangCampus,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about parents and children. You are right—some parents are very wise and raise smart kids because they have a clear vision. Other parents worry a lot and try to protect their children too much because the world feels dangerous. I understand why parents in China escort their kids to school every day. It must be very stressful for them and also for the people around the school. Traffic and crowds can be a big problem. But as you said, their fear is not without reason. Many things make parents act this way.
I also see similar situations in other countries. Parents everywhere want to keep their children safe. Your post is very interesting, and I agree with many points. Please keep writing and sharing your ideas—I enjoy reading them! Thank you again for this great discussion.
All the best,

Hi Mohsen,
Wow, what an amazing surprise to see you back after so long, my friend!
My dearest friend, I can hardly believe my eyes—after all these years, here you are!
Your sudden return feels like a warm ray of sunshine breaking through the clouds, and my heart is overflowing with joy to see you back where you belong. Time may have passed, but your place in our discussions was never truly filled—I've missed your unique voice, your wisdom, and the special light you bring to every conversation.
And oh, that poem you shared! I keep reading it over and over, each time discovering new layers of beauty in your words. The way you weave emotions into verse is nothing short of magical—it stirred something deep in my soul. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for blessing us with such a precious gift. Poetry like yours reminds us all why we gather here—to share, to feel, to connect across time and distance.
Now that you're back, please don't hold back your thoughts! Your perspective has always enriched our discussions in ways no one else could. Whether it's sharing memories, debating ideas, or simply catching up, your voice matters here. This space simply isn't the same without your contributions.
I've been wondering so much about our dear circle of friends. How is Miss Hurieh? Does she still write somewhere? And what of the others—have paths crossed, or stories been shared? These years apart mean there are countless updates to exchange, and I'm all ears whenever you'd like to share news.
Welcome home again, my friend. Your return feels like the missing piece of a puzzle finally sliding into place. May this be just the beginning of many more shared poems, conversations, and moments of connection. The threads of friendship may have stretched thin with time, but clearly, they were never broken. Here's to rekindling old bonds and creating new memories together! With the warmest embrace and happiest heart, I say—it's so very good to have you back.
Once again, welcome back—I've missed you!
All the best,

Wow, what an amazing surprise to see you back after so long, my friend!
My dearest friend, I can hardly believe my eyes—after all these years, here you are!
Your sudden return feels like a warm ray of sunshine breaking through the clouds, and my heart is overflowing with joy to see you back where you belong. Time may have passed, but your place in our discussions was never truly filled—I've missed your unique voice, your wisdom, and the special light you bring to every conversation.
