Why can't parents take control of their children?

[rubydazzler 11]

snippy - Is it the area? Theres no trouble of any kind here, but when I lived on Wordsworth there was always trouble with kids, every night and all day.

 

By area, do you mean Gleadless or Sheffield generally? I think you only have to consider this thread and the responses and the other responses that certain people have posted on other similar topics elsewhere to see where the problem lies. Not only in Gleadless Valley but everywhere else that the mindset reigns supreme. If the adults think like this, what chance do the children have of becoming socially responsible?

 

I used to drive over into Cheshire often and I was always impressed by the cleanliness of the small towns en route. You don't realise how depressing certain areas of Sheffield are until you go to places where people have some idea of how to be considerate of others and value and care for the place where they live.

A slap would do em good.

 

 

Yeahhhhh

 

If only!........It never hurt us when we were kids and we certainly knew right from wrong.

 

There is no punishment, they get a slap on the wrist if caught and get told to go away and basically given the ok to misbehave again.

I meant big cities, Leicester is the same as Sheffield, theres kid probs there even though they have more resources to hand than the kids do here in the wilds.

We have as many kids here and bugger all for them to do, yet theyre nice polite kids.

I'm sure the parents wouldn't mind taking control if that happened, spot on with the idea.

Let's not get too far away from the OP - it WAS about taggers on Gleadless Valley. And we seem to have had some responses from people who apparently have inside knowledge of taggers in the area.

 

The fact that other cities also have problems with lowlife youths doesn't take away the fact that this is the SHEFFIELD forum, and that there are kids in SHEFFIELD who are tagging, and that apparently people on this thread know who they are.

 

Stop defending your kids - or your own actions - by saying that hey, it happens in other cities too! Just bleedin' get a grip of your own, and sort them out.

Nor I. It just seemed to me that there were some posts on this thread that indicated that there was something personal being taken by the complaints about the taggers.....................

 

So.........is there anyone who knows anything about the taggers who have been tagging on Blackstock Road?

There are posters who ALWAYS take it personally when you even mention responsible parenting. The way reasonable talk about anti-social crime actually prompts the inverted snobbery, hatred, bigotry, aggression and defensiveness, does sort of prove the point. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
