for me its not because you are not doing bad for other,for me i would feel confident because i am proud having that tricycle,aside from that i don't care if what people say to you,so never feel embarrassed when you will ride or even drive a tricycle.because even riches people ride in a tricycle too.

Hi xiaodou, I don’t think it’s embarrassing for a teacher to take tricycle for transport. if I were a teacher and to have the chance to travel in my dad’s tricycle to school, I will happy for sure. It’s unique and convenient as well. Much more I don’t have to take the trouble to queue up for taking the public transport. I think to be a teacher, he or she should have positive thinking and to show good example to his students or others. We have to pay respect to all kind of occupations, no matter the work is honorable or humble. We should not look down upon a teacher who travels in his or her dad’s trishaw. It doesn’t matter during whatever era it's always the same! Moreover the pedicab driver is your beloved dad. I believe he will feel happy and proud as well, if his kid is willing to travel in his trishaw to school sometimes! Take care and happy posting!

I don't think that is something to be embarassed about... when i was still a teacher... i would always ride the tricycle just so i can arrive to the school early... and even the Assistant Principal did that... especially when she is running late...

If I am your neighbour then I will appreciate you rather than criticizing you dear friend. Do not care with the people who make fun of you, any cycling will keep anyone fit and health. Good health will bring you wealth as well, so, continue with what you like to do. Do not care what everyone says around you. I use to go on my bicycle to most of places and my friends use to make fun of me. I am healthy and most of my friends are either overweight or having health problems. Now they realised the value of bicycle.. So, forget about others, do what your hearts says.. have a nice day and all the best.. :)

i dont think its embarassing to take tricycle as tricycle is for everybody. and all sort of people from small time to professionals took or ride tricycle. as not all people in our country have the capacity to have their own car. I am an accountant, and the rest of my siblings are professionals and we took tricycle when we go to work. its one way of communication so theres nothing wrong with it.
