| kenarman Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 14 Posts: 4511 | Another 4 rescued last night. 4 more kids and the coach to go. Rain has hit they say the next rescue will be more difficult. The first 4 were the strongest if that followed with next 4 they are left with the 4 weakest kids to get out. It is a 7 hour trip to get the boys out.

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | It will be interesting to hear their stories. Also wondering if they have all gone voluntarily. Since they were forced into a deadline, they couldn't afford to have any kids deciding they weren't ready to go. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | I'd liken the learning process to something like being introduced to skydiving by being told the 1st day involves throwing you out of the airplane. Then someone will try to hook up your parachute before you hit the ground. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

The coach is going to be in a world of hurt after he gets out. He'll be the last one out, but I'll bet he is going to wish he stayed in. |

He's an idiot, talk about bad judgement. He's only 25, he's a kid himself. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

He will get invited to be a star on the Oprah show. He can do a tour and he will be well sought after. It shouldn’t be that way, but it probably will. |

The parents have been very supportive In a letter sent through divers, 25-year-old Ekapol Chanthawong, tried to reassure the concerned parents, adding: “Right now the kids are all fine, the crew are taking good care. I promise I will care for the kids as best as possible. I want to say thanks for all the support and I want to apologize to the parents." Chanthawong, the assistant coach of the Wild Boars, has been the subject of seething criticism for leading the boys into the predicament — and accolades for his subsequent efforts to keep them alive. Authorities say he took the boys deep into a massive Tham Luang cave complex in the northern Chiang Rai province after a game June 23. Heavy rains ensued, and the route out became flooded and impassable. |
