Kids Behaviours, who is to blame?

[Gingermick]

We seem to have a society that must apportion blame

Well it's gotta be someones fault if there are soooo many laws that have the effect of removing a persons responsibility and placing it on someone else. (re young idiot leans out of train to grafitti and gets injured and sues train company)

WOW thats right it is someones fault usuallt the person or persons involved.

One persons point of view is not maybe the truth or facts.

Just heading in the direction of becoming another USA like the fellow who owned a brand new Motor Home trundeling down the Highway he hit cruise control got out the drivers seat to go make a coffee sued the company because they didn't explain about cruise control and dangers of getting out the seat whilest in motion.

Listening to a younger generation radio station this morning, I do this occassionally FBI radio http://www.fbiradio.com/content.php/3.html
I heard this following announcement
New TAFE ads commence this week

25 September 2007
By Diane Hague
Media and Communicatons Officer Commencing this week is a new round of TAFE advertising on television, radio and strip ads in the Sun-Herald.

The 'TAFE is the answer' tv ad will run on regional television for two weeks. A new radio ad will be broadcast on NOVA for three weeks and a strip ad will be published in the Sun-Herald on 30 September, 7 October and 14 October.
The advertising will refer to the AEU's national TAFE claim, that it will take an extra $470 million in 2008, minimum, to fund TAFE to address Australia's skills crisis.
The radio ad states:
"Australia's skills shortage is a national crisis.
We've got jobs, no-one to fill them
Want a future for our children
We've got to train them up and skill them.
TAFE is the answer
We can start with education
Build on a strong foundation
To become a clever nation.
TAFE is the answer
It'll take an extra $470 million in 2008 - minimum
TAFE is the answer."
Given the comments of the Federal Minister for Vocational and Further Education, Andrew Robb, today, that the Federal government if re-elected, would tie future funding to the imposition of a WorkChoices style agenda, including Australian Workplace Agreements; more autonomy for Institutes and the threat of directing funding to private providers to force change, the advertising campaign is timely.
TAFE has been starved of funding by the Federal government and this lack of funding is directly related to Australia's skills crisis.

This by the same institution who demands their members have everything paid for which means they get it FREE all their tuition on going courses education etc.

And we ask where do they get it from. Our Children.

Listen to the radio station you'll be surprised at what our kids are listening too.

I banned commercial tv
my kids are 14 (girl) 10 (boy)
I am seriously worried about my daughter, we're likk saffi and edina (Ab Fab)
she gets embarrassed if i wear a lowish top etc
sometimes its just nature, somtimes nurture or just genes
I am happy that they hate mac d's
prefer chip shop burgers
we arnt rich or poor but I think before i let them do stuff
I think a lot has to do with the strengh of the child to resist peer pressure.
my girl is shy but not weak, this caused probs in primary but not in secndary.
the boys think shes a great mate and the barbie girls leave her alone.

my son is a cheerful bandit!!
love my kids
