And, by the way, it should be "hanged" ... If you are discussing "hung", go to the over 18s section, where I'm not allowed to visit.

By the way, did you hear the joke about the plastic surgeon who hung himself.

I wonder how many will have stolen music, movies, software, chipped xboxs/wii/playstation/DSi's with illegal games on them in their homes?

Maybe more people do think its down to the level of theft that matters. £1 from granny or £1000 worth of stolen games/software.

Who killed you and made you a Saint?

We are all guilty of 'sins', but not all of us are deliberate sinners.

You shouldn't have answered a question about your children then, if you didn't want members to comment on what you said.

The question relates to what's right and wrong, and if you'd report your children if they'd broken the law.

Your attitude reflects badly on our society, and explains why scum are allowed to do what they do.

I never said I'd (use the pea-shooter to) shoot-to-kill.

Do try and be factual.

Especially about what I've posted.

I fear it's a bit of an uneven match.

But do try.

Without trolling through old posts, aren't a pit bull type dog fancier?

Figures.

Trolled after all.

As I thought.

Exactly.

You've already failed to bring up a child who wasn't a criminal.

Now your aiding them to avoid criminal justice.

Isn't that a crime too?

Sort of makes some horrible sense.

As to the question ... can't make my mind up on this one at all.
Would definitely have to be in that postition before I made a decision.

Also, each case and child is different. If I had thought, either of my children had been straying in the past, and any discipline I metered out had been ineffective, then I probably would, however, if they (as far as I was aware), had never been involved in any criminal activity before, then I would try and deal with it myself. Again, I think.

Will have to decline to answer on this one.

Re: Would you shop your kids

I'd just like to point out this is a theoretical question.

Since there have been no reported riots, and looting in Hyndburn.

We can therefore assume every parent in this area has done a sterling job raising their childen.

Some people have expressed an opinion, which I happen to disagree with.

It's just differing of points of view.

Wrong versus right.

Them being wrong.

When have I said that ? Am always doing U-turns when I read other people's opinions (watch Garinda google ..LOL).

I just don't find this question black or white that's all, and can see areas of grey.

I have answered it, dearest Cashy, it is a criminal act of which I feel disgust like everyone else. Again though ... this was not the question...

Got kids Garinda, Didnt think so.

"Id shoot them", Happen you should be more presice and even with a pea shooter it can be classed as assault.

Can I now say I wouldnt shop them in I would take them to the shop they stolen the goods from retrun the goods and let them deside if to press charges or not after all they are the injured party.

As for my love/like/preference of dog breed whats that got to do with it.

Ps, you didnt answer my pervious question, What gives you the right to say my childrens future looks a bit messy.

Ah so you'd take your kids back to the shop with the swag, now you didn't say that did you, in-fact you ARE shopping your own offspring
