If you found out a close family member, perhaps your offsping, was sexually abusing a child, would you similarly help them avoid the law of the land, and them paying for their crimes?

Any of the no voters going to answer this question, and similarly defend that they would protect their offspring from the law of the land?

For the sake of argument, again, similar to many of the rioters and looters, your child is sixteen.

The child they've abused is of primary school age.

Hopefully money doesn't come in to it, or the relative wealth of the sexually abused kiddie.

How can we know?...Other than by using the statistics...and if we go by these, then only one would be turned in by their parents. Isn't it a sad world? Or is it only me who feels despair in the slide of society/communities.
A dog eat dog Britain...get what you want..don't worry someone else will pay for it.

Take another look Margaret.. these are grown men ..I have no idea of what sort of parents they have.. and the posters on here who lable parents as scum have no idea.:(

None, if they have parents like you.

I'm middle aged.

I'm lucky I still have a living parent.

I tell you as fact, she'd 100% shop me.

She's a good woman.

I'm lucky.

Well seeing as you ask I'd say this government seem to have the same attitude.. is it right or wrong to cut finances for mental health and aged care homes..is it right or wrong to cut police forces because of finances?

No, you're not alone.

I despair for society too.

Now, and especially for the future.

When today's children become parents, and teach their offspring what's the right way to live.

Hide away from this question, by fudging the issue with something entirely different.

You, and the ever growing minority, just worry about looking after you, and your's, and sod the rest of society.

Re: Would you shop your kids

Let's get things clear.. I would not call the police if any of my now older than teenage sons had stole a few quid from other members of my family.. I can honestly say that has never happend so maybe I've been lucky ...I'd like to make another thing clear.. if some posters on here think they can lable me as a scum parent because of what I have said my advice is calm down.. take notice or not it's up to you.

As posted earlier. It's ok on here saying would you shop your kids, most people on here i think are moral and upright, most of their kids would be nowhere near any trouble. If you look at the scummy kids it's no suprise to see a scummy parent, i don't for one minute think they would shop their kids, they more than likely actively encourage them. Under normal circumstances they probably send them out shoplifting. And having lived in Ancoats and a few other unsavoury areas i do know it goes on.

We're all having a reasoned discussion here.

You've made your thoughts perfectly clear.

If you'd found out any child of your's had been involved in the recent riots and looting, you'd turn a blind eye, as far as the laws of the land are concerned.

That's your stance.

That is sad, for the hope we have for living in a decent society.

Honour amongst those without morals.

Ironic.

Yes, the good and decent people who fought for our freedoms in World War II.

This is not just about poor parenting through the generations.

It's about a change in collective attitude, regarding right from wrong, and the reasons why this came about.

I hope that's not a threat to anyone?

Will a mob be sent, if things don't 'calm down'?

Mob rule?

Justice of the streets?
