I had a really super saturday...but marred by..

[Bobbisox]

The little sh!ts who aren't frightened of authority at all, we took the the bus down to the coast so we could go for a drink, me Bill and two friends.
First the bus, it was quite full when we got on so we went to the babk, there was a 13/14 yr who was sitting with this filthy trainers across the 'facing ' two seats, he did take them down but I told him Sorry I ma not sitting there when you have had your muddy trainers on the seat, this caused much mirth to him and his mates across the aisle, we got off in Newcastle and he decided to stick his foot out as I was moving down the bus but I saw him do it and give him a right b0llicking much to the delight of some elderly passengers, that over we got on a Metro to South Sheilds and it was full of the same age group calling eachother c*****, and useing the f-word in every other they spoke, laughing at passengers who were upset by their behaviour !
Why can't something be done about such yob culture, what are the powers that be frightened of?
<end of rant>
Good Morning from me..lol

trouble is doc, no one will take that responsibility, too many do-gooders, I see it all the time, while I must admit my small grandson does get discilines when needed, it's the 'naughty step and time -out Americanisms that have come over here, a slap hasn't harmed me at all and was always the back of my legs who copped it, it hasn't affected my daughter, she got a slap either on the back of the hand or her legs, she's working full time and has a good career, she does not talk down to me and respects me as her parent...so who's wrong ?

I;ll get a lion to slap 'em any time, now where's my lion.....?

[Bobbisox]

I would love to see a return to discipline proper doc, it worries me to see young children going from innocence to hooligans
What kind of a enviroment will we live in in years to come...a broken one , so I hope the ones that made it this way are proud of themselves

[Bobbisox]

animals are often more intelligent than us humans..lol

The other side of the coin makes this one more sad. Where children are brought up properly and respect parental authority, they can still rebel etc but it's contained, they know their parameters and are penalised if they cross over them. In the two houses on either side of me there are a total of eight children and two grandchildren, and believe me they are - without exception - lovely young people. They kick off, they pay the price, but they are funny talented kids with a joy in life, who have done well at school. The others we are discussing have no aspirations and seek nothing apart from peer "respect", which means nothing - it's extraordinarily sad.

[Bobbisox]

yes it is, we can't tar them all with the same brush I know lots of lovely young people but it is the cr@p ones you remember... the most...sad!

Unfortunately I'd say a high percentage of kids going bad comes from bad parenting with a small number being of good parenting but become bad through their peers.

Morning Joy and All - trouble is the kids are not frightened of the Police anymore (well not the ones that are causing havoc, anyway) - I still think the responsibility lays with the parents. The amount of times I am in the supermarket and parents let their screaming kids just scream, scream and scream some more. What I have noticed is they are normally foreign parents - i.e. eastern european. They seem totally oblivious to it.

I was in Tesco yesterday and just coming out to the car park with my shopping when there was a great big kufuffle in the car park - about 15 Tesco staff were surrounding a car, I thought perhaps a celebrity was there, but no seconds later about 10 Tesco men were carrying, feet first, a very unhappy customer back into the store - and I don't think it was because he forgot to collect his money off vouchers !!!

Morning DEN the upside of this little ditty is, we went into a pub for a lunch time drink and there was a little guy togged out in a cowboy shirt and huge stetson, singing, we thought.....
Oh-oH, he was brilliant, sang all 60s stuff and some sing-a-longs, I won a pint for guessing who sang the Finger of Suspicion, lunch time drink turned into an afternoon of fun, doc you would have had a great time..lol

Yeh, but,no..but, yeh but no bet yeh oh i sooooo can't believe you posted this, it wern't me it was that slapper from next door

[cls14]

I blame our *** politicians who don't live in the real world and a) Don't seem to want to punish anti-social behaviour and b) Give more rights to criminals and scallies than the victimes of crimes. I mean the ASBO, what the heck is the point!

[Bobbisox]

Justin you are too well behaved for the blame pet..lol

[bigfoot3000]

cls14 i'ts the hard drinking, smoking and swearing parents that let their kids run riot, the ones that do not discipline their kids and end up becoming scared of their own kids, these parents are to blame for the disintegration of our once great society.

As someone who tried her best to bring 3kids up in the best way possible I always found that my biggest obstacle was other parents and what they let their kids do - it so gets to me - mornin all

[DEN53]

Morning Peri - I am just off out to drop Mr Den and Son at the station to get the train to Wembly.

[pericat]
