Oh so do I, Blazey. Parents of that mind set are one of Society's problems. You should consider, however, that not all parents are naive and it really isn't so difficult for responsible parents/grandparents to uncover evidence of the three examples you give.

Thank you for the insight into the general character of Youth. You won't appreciate my saying so but, believe it or not, as well as being a parent and a grandparent I have also been a young person; triple the experience, I think.

An acquaintance of mine, on another forum, is a lecturer at an American college. His signature says, "I am not young enough to know everything". He has a good point.

I like that quote too WestEnder.

What an appalling generalisation about young people Blazey. You really do have such a poor opinion of the youth of today that I can't help but wonder what circles you move in.

(BTW 'hypocrite' has an 'e' on the end)

I thought the chat room was for people to have private conversations!!! Out of order bringing it onto the main forum.

I've used it on another site Willow, it's a good one,I think it was an Oscar Wild quip. Yes I posted an ammendment I'm looking for it now,I had Chemo last Wednesday and affects my vision badly,that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it

, must admit It makes you a 'proper Charlie' when you are correcting another poster.

Blazey, even if you know Jae on a personal level and what you state is correct, the choice isn’t really yours to divulge such information. That choice belongs to Jae.

It was uncalled for and a tad below the belt.

Two people join a forum, let's call them Blazey and Jae.

They both make an impression, in what they say, and how they say it, as well as how they act.

Two people go for a job interview, let's call them Blazey and Jae.

They both make an impression, in what they say, and how they say it, as well as how they act.

Jae you start Monday.

Can we get back on-topic now about the school leaving age?

Gang?.. Nope.

No job? I'm doing training in business actually.

street corners?.. Stop looking back on your career as a prostitute and sort that wrist-slitting boyfriend of yours out.

Now... Stop trying to act like some miss know it all.

Oh and by the way, good luck getting into Law when you AND your boyfriend are both drug users.

They call it experience, I Think Margaret, I think they will have to teach the teachers a lot more if this crop are anything to go by. The so called cream

Teaching standards are at the lowest ebb ever in my lifetime, I had a lot of thick head's come to me for work, but they were smarter than this lot, and that was only 8-10 years ago.

Oh mi God. Is this the true Jae coming out???? You had people on here having a go at Blazey for making a passing statement about you, and u come out with cr*p like that????

How personal are you wanting to go like? I dont know either of ya but posting a statement like that up is just pathetic. I couldnt give a flying pigs whatnots if Blazey has a dodgy past and a self harming boyfriend (which I doubt is true anyway). The fact that you're bringing this sort of stuff on to an internet forum is disgraceful.

Ya posted earlier about getting back onto subject. Practice what ya preach.
