Had a young lad of no more than 10 stand up to me the other day... I mean this little buggar stood there all of 2ft nothin arms on hips little jaw thrust out and told me to "F O you stinkin ol F B"... just like that!! Couldnt believe it... to explain... we have this creek that runs through the property from culverts under the road... I lob up home and see this little fella disappearing into the culvert and knowing theres a fair bit of water still flowing strongly through there I bolt over and call him out and when he came out the other side I simply told him "dont you know its dangerous under there matey? you better shoot of home eh?" at which point he did his "cool" act... an hour later he's back with mum and dad in tow bangin on the door when opened the WOMAN roared "you called my kid a F C you F B C" with dad standin with his arms folded behind her "come out here you FC an I will F show you what I Fn do with Fn C like you" Looking past them theres this little tacker standin there with the hugest grin on his face you could ever imagine... I mean he was really enjoyin himself!!!
Took some sortin out and the arrival of the local constablulary to get them to leave but brother I tell you this kid and his mom and dad had the foulest mouths Id ever heard... and mates Ive lived and worked in some rough places!!
Needless to say my mob of kids had a nice talk about language respect and dignity that night!
makes you wonder :rolleyes:
But then listen to some of the "music" nowadays... death suicide hate and a hell of a lot of negative darkness in it so really what with some of what loosely pass for "parents" its not really a wonder
respect for ones elders and others has gone by the wayside along with dignity and self respect decency and integrity are passing as the next generation sets the standards they wish to live within and we older ones fail to stop the political correctness and lack of discipline thats become the norm
