Marrying...this is one word i DO know how to spell, although i should take time to read my post prior to sending!! Because i am new to this, i get a little excited, i feel i have so much to say..i just post too soon!!

The problem with the trade is these resort workers and animacion kids are so young, and many of them have offspring of their own, you would think the lifestyle they live would not be the one they wish for their own children.

thanks for pointing that out! m'frog

From their point of view the 'trade' is not bad:
The pay is relatively good, the work involves a lot of fun and is not bone breaking...
The perks that come with it have made many members of this board wish to become 'sankies' in their future lives...

If this boy is any indication of what creates a sankie, then probably every sankie had a mother and that female failed him.

Maternal failures are devestating to a child and create so many problems throughout that child's life. Don't blame the men, blame their mother.

For the love of God.....Give it a rest already.

This kid is 10 years of age....He is NOT acting like a Sankie.....He is NOT "studying" the Sankiesm religion....

ALLLLLL he is doing is being a little brat....Being an uneducated kid.

He acts like that because there's a big chance he sees his father do the same thing with all his conquests.

These kids are a dime a dozen...Here, there, everywhere.

Kids like him act this way because their parents do NOT give them much....gifts or love... they do NOT have much....and when they feel cared/loved by someone, they show their emotions by becoming little "lambones".

MANY moons ago, my nephew (born and raised in the US) was just like that....Every time someone gave in something, Holy Molly, it was like you married the little brat.

I used to tell my brother to educate his kid better....That it was an embarrassment to watch that kid practically make love to a person's leg just because something was given to him, while his parent just stood THERE like two morons, NOT saying a word!.

Again, this kid is NOT being trained to be a Sankie....ALLLLL he need is for his parents to educate him better.

If his parents see nothing wrong with him acting like that, I am sure they are NOT that well educated, do NOT have much and are just like him....Always with their hands "out", if you know what I mean.

Miguel, I can totally relate to what you are saying, there are kids in Canada that act the same way, i'm just wondering how many kids are exposed to "Sanky Panky" talk and follow in parents footsteps.

There is small community outside our resort, we went for many walks outside the resort because they moved the venders to the community, as they are building a new hotel close by and were asked to leave the beach area where they were originally posted, I'm not sure if the community even had a name but it was near Cabezo de Toro. There was a small "motel" where these kids would watch "Sankys" hand in hand with their white woman in and out all day!!

I'm sure the kids see everything, it's really a shame they have to witness this disgusting behaviour.

Ummm, miguel....if my dog every does that to you, it's domination, not sexual attraction.

I agree with you. In fact I think $10 out of the blue would have made me happy when I was a kid. Especially when there isn't a lot of money to go around in the family. Well I know my uncle would always leave money in my coat pocket for me to find after he left and that was a really big deal to me. I better call him tomorrow, he's 84 and has a recurrence of prostate cancer.

Kids are kids, some of us wanted to marry of fathers . We grow out of it. sort of...

I agree. This is the most disgusting thing I find about sankies: they get entire family and kids involved in their scams to create sort of "real life" situations. Or, they just lie to the family members, hiding their actions, pretending to be something they are not - like a "good," "decent," "Christian" family man . Well, lie is a lie. Kids feel it. They learn to be sneaky, lie and steal just the same way as parents do

Well I spoke with one of the animation guys at the Viva Wyndham and he gives all his money to his mother and step father so they can take care of his brothers and sisters. He said "This isn't working, sitting around all day at a resort hanging out with tourists. If you want to see what some Dominican have to do for the same money, go into Puerta Plata and you'll see them really working hard for next to nothing." It's not all black and white, some of the resort workers are decent individuals. And the dancers will all be burnt out needing knee surgery dancing in high heels by the time they're 30. And if the OP thought they were deceitful, I doubt she would have befriended one and forked over $10 to the child. That's just my two centavos. You guys are so jaded.

[Alyonka]

I am not talking about hard working Dominicans. I was only talking about scammers. I am sure there are a lot of decent Dominican people working in the tourist industry and other places. It is not very realistic for us, tourists, to get to know them unfortunately.

Why don't you sankie lovers, sankie apologists and sankie enthusiasts give it a break already?

Aren't there other topics that need beating to death besides this one?
