Abang bomba anyone?

Asyik tengok duduk hype dekat newsfeed sampai semalam tergerak nak tengok satu drama melayu ni, 'Abang Bomba I love you' ek tajuk dia? Kadang- kadang ada jugak duduk tengok drama melayu ni especially bila teman mak... Most of the time tak dan nak tengok apa kat tv dah pun sebab busy dengan macam- macam benda lah... Especially when you have kids, I choose not to watch these cheesy drama cinta sebab I am so worried that kiddos are influenced by the act.  Tau la drama melayu sekarang, punya teruk sampai ada anak luar nikah sama-sama pon jadi bahan sweet sweet dalam drama.  So much rubbish.

Back to the one episode of Abang Bomba that I watched last night, it was mostly 'eurgh what the hell am I watching' kinda feeling but I waited all the way until the 1 hour slot is finished.  Hero dia memang handsome lah, heroin sumpah tak kenal, pelakon keras kayu dan muka tua sangat tak sesuai bawak watak budak sekolah.  Drama tu meninggalkan I dengan penuh tanda tanya, apa mesej yang cuba nak disampaikan ni sebenarnya.  Ok maybe I should be fair and not judge with just one episode tapi biasa nya dengan drama melayu ni kau tertinggal 10 episode pon masih boleh tangkap jalan cerita dia apa...

Ada unsur- unsur nasihat dalam skrip.  Maybe ada cubaan nak paparkan realiti anak melayu kena halau dari rumah oleh parents dan menumpang kasih pada Atuk, dan seorang lelaki lain bila kasih ayah sendiri tak dapat dimenangi.  Just my wild guess, since that's been the sentiments lately with Malaysian drama and movie makers, latest being the movie 'Pekak' which kononnya memaparkan realiti anak-anak hanyut... Tapi tiada jalan penyelesaian ditonjolkan dalam filem ini, mahupon tindakan menyelesai isu-isu demikian oleh pihak berkenaan ekoran dari filem-filem ini.

Balik pada drama tadi, I remember at the beginning of that episode last night I was actually horrified to find out that the girl chasing after this abang bomba, was a school girl.  Tergedik- gedik tersimpul- simpul tersengih- sengih.  Scary to even think that I have 3 girls in the house, watching this with me while I was satisfying my curiosity: what makes this Abang Bomba the hot topics on social media.  Guilty mom, half-way watching I asked Kakak to change to her normal cartoon slot, but she refused sebab Kakak dah tergedik-gedik tengok orang bercinta... 'Kenapa dia kena push-up Mommy? Lelaki tu tak suka dia dah ke?' Umur 6 tahun, dah faham jalan cerita dah pun.  Pastuh terfikir, ye, 6 tahun, mungkin dah mula suka pada boys... mungkin seronok tengok hero handsome, mungkin dah rasa bestnye tengok orang bercinta.  Ok there's no way on earth I'm going to let my kids watch these!!!

Yang paling tak faham.. budak tu budak sekolah kottttt. Kau dah kenapa?  Nak cakap it's ok to fall in love while your ultimate goal should be focusing on your study and just make sure you have a good future?  Adehhh la.  Bila ada part nasihat, aku tak rasa anak-anak remaja akan hadam nasihat tu.  The focus adalah pada sweet nye dapat bercinta dengan abang bomba handsome sado macam tu.  Dengan kes paedophile yang berleluasa sekarang ni, ini yang kita pilih untuk ketengahkan?  I really feel it's stupid.

Entahlah, nak hentam drama pon I know it is not my place.  Bersuara sebagai seorang ibu sahaja.  I was a teenager once, I know what teenage girls are capable of doing.  It made me worried sick that we are now living in the world full of sickos and we're not even doing our parts to make the world a better place.  Then there's tv shows and internet, yang mana kalau kau tak control memang boleh sangat memudaratkan... I'd like to think that we can do our small parts as parents, as civilians, start small kemudian baru lah boleh lihat dan merubah yang lebih besar...  As for me, I think being control freak parent works for me so far...  Let it be that way, forever if it helps me find out what my kids are up to...
