That line

Coincidence or not, following Wood’s affairs, came Neo’s extra-martial affairs. There is certainty no question over the mistakes of these 2 men. However, looking beyond their wrong doings, there are more issues that are difficult to judge if they are right or wrong.

Did Neo’s wife, Kng, do the right thing, by standing by him, despite knowing his affair for a year long? Is it right to attend the press conference where her husband admits his wrongdoings? Mum says women should never tolerate any unfaithful actions by their husbands, especially the first one. It is at the first one that you should be firm and let them know it is absolutely not something that you can accept. Otherwise, you are just creating more opportunities for him to go astray again. When you forgive, is it something good or bad for him? And for us to keep discussing over this scandal, is it the right thing to do? Should we leave some peace for the family? But discussions will lead us to be better understanding of people and ethics.

Out of all parties, I feel most for the kids. Imagine your entire school knows who’s your father. One fine day, he turns out to be someone of public shame. Wow, that kinda awesome day it would be in school. Primary school kids might come to you and say nasty stuff. Older students would talk behind your back. Neither situations are pleasant. Social pressure is one. Emotional blow is another.

When there is so much repercussions involved, why do people still cross that line?
