PuressenceUK   10 #65 Posted May 17, 2006 Hi, I am a teenager myself and i never have, and never would act that way, and i don't think it's acceptable. Personally, i think every child or teenager, or even adult for that matter should have to spend a few nights in a cell every time they did something of the sort. That would stop them. Lewis  NO NO NO  It wouldn't stop them - that's the problem. They'd just laugh it off and do it again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

SHsheff   10 #69 Posted May 17, 2006 just hangs out bored on garages playing footy but that is anti social these days  No-one has EVER said that kids playing footy is anti-social! People have complained about graffitti all over the place and young people being abusive to shopkeepers, which IS anti-social, surely?

Â I am just making the point, which personally I believe to be valid, whether anyone else does or not that is upto personal judgement. I think the actual circumstances of the incident tie in the race issue, but accept the original intention being one of kids today....... Â I now sound old and i am only 35!

original   10 #71 Posted May 17, 2006 black brown yellow white what ever the colour a youth will use any language not even thinking of th meaning it just comes out especially when in gangs i dont think most of the youths realise the trouble they can get in for racial abuse now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
purdyamos   10 #72 Posted May 17, 2006 Original, you yourself said your kid got into trouble being with mates who were being loud and grafitting (sp?) and tried to make it sound like nothing. I am tired of hearing the mothers of anti-social cliches make excuses for them, even when they have actually admitted that their kid has been behaving badly.
