All these riots everywhere!!!

We have 3 sex shops all next to each other ;) they decided to go to this one, probably because they've never been in one before :dohh:

pahaha can you imagine

'mum i got some rice from tescos and this
vibrating toy from the private shop, no idea what it
does but it's a nice shade of purple'

:rofl: :rofl:
 
So here's a loaded question. Will anyone here consider changing their own parenting tactics to include stronger discipline on their own LOs... to ensure the same "lost generation" isn't repeated? xx

I always thought to myself growing up that i didnt wanna be a parent that was as strict as my parents were with us...

However judging by how we have turned out, i dont now think its such a bad thing. Having 3 older brothers, none of which have ever been in trouble with the police, all went to uni and finished there educations and are just generally good rounded individuals...id be pretty surprised if the same wouldve happened if they were parented in a less relaxed way...I dunno really, but being a little strict cant do too much harm in moderation and when its needed is fine.

Something all of these kids causing this havoc havent ever had i suspect!


Tbh, we weren't ever hit and my mum wasn't strict at all and none pd us have ever been in trouble either. No coming home wasted, no drugs and not even smoking.
 
My parents were pretty relaxed, me and my sisters dont even drink or smoke and never been in trouble with police. x
 
my mum was strict when I was younger (not exactly old now) but it didn't stop me going out drinking/smoking/having sex at 13/14 (:shock: ergh, I sound great!) but some of my friends had the most lax parents and they never did anything I did, a parent can only do so much :thumbup:

I do agree that these people should be at home though!
 
LOL

Skip to 3/4 way through and watch closely to the end

You remind me of me, but i was 15 not 13/14 when i had sex lol! but i was drinking, smoking and doing drugs since around 14 which is bad and i do regret it and would never go back there. My parents were just normal, relaxed when I was and strict when I got out of hand. IMO with my parents they route I went down wasnt there faults at all, but my own. I fell into the wrong group of friends but soon after finishing school with crap results (was predicted A* in everything in year 7, by the time it was year 10 I was predicted C/D) I realised i fucked up and I changed so much. I managed to get a job and get a place in college and from then on everything was great, settled down with OH and now I have a gorgeous baby girl. Not planned but wouldnt change that! In a way I am glad I went through a bad patch whilst I was younger because I was still young and my parents had more control than they would if i was 18/19 at the time, i also had teachers around me trying to help me aswell. One of which did and I am so thankful she walked into my life!

What Im trying to say is you can only influence someones actions as much as they will let you. Each person is free to choose whichever life they decide to, as parents we can only try to sway them the right way. (unless you lock them in the cupboard under the stairs like harry potter :haha: (joke))
 
has anyone heard anything about any planned trouble tonight? hope you all stay safe.xx
 
The guy walking with the newspaper over his face is Alexis Bailey (the teacher who was in court this morning - pleaded guilty to looting a shop in Croydon) leaving court... at the end he walks straight into a lamppost! xx

We weren't disciplined physically either....just had firm but fair rules in place...the boys sometimes slipped up as teens, as they do, but nothing major!
