Phoenix, true and it was from the UK that we got that idea - think of "Summerhill". When my children were going into the kindergarden I also bought that book about "antiautoritary education" - it was very popular in Germany at that time. However, now we realise that it was not of advantage!

Believe it or not, my heart saddens, at the way 'society' has moved -- It can really tear one apart, when the anger, subsides. -- There is so very little understanding of the Past and just what it meant to us 'Oldies' and to think that it is now -- Violated, to the degree, that it can never return or Improve??

Why are you so convinced there will not be a change one day - sometimes I think that the young generation won't accept all the "unpleasant" things we accept and tolerate.

Teri, What sort of change can there be??
If a 'change' at all, can it be for the better??
I don't think I shall Live to see it. There is too much, to 'Turn Around' for progress to life more 'comfortable' for our people --- As for the young?? 'they' are giving us all, some of the Unpleasant things!! -- just read our news papers and magazines, to find The Answer??

I think the young generation will not accept that they are treated by their children and gchildren as we are treated by them - they are much too egoistic.

I do see your point

Phoenix it seems you are living in a rather dangerous quarter. In the town where I live there are also crimes committed, but the street where I live seems to be rather "safe". Even my friend, who is very anxious, takes it when she is on her way home in the night. Moreover, don't you have watchful (?) neighbours?

The whole point is?? Am absolutely sick of reading about 'Yobs and Criminals' -- Does so few people ever 'think' about The Victims?Huh -- Father's and Sons Killed??   Homes and cars, set of Fire by Arsonist's Huh? plus some Businesses endure Theft -- More than Once??
 Happy for those that do live in a reasonable area!!
If this is a 'Sign of The Times' and No Deterents ??
 Crime, can only 'Esculate' consequently, there will be more and more Victims Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Phoenix, since there are men on earth crime existed (think of Kain and Abel) - the difference may be that with the new medias of communications we learn more about it and the way this problem is dealt with has changed.

Kain and Abel ?? Ah!!  So that is where The problem Started. -- One would believe that with our 'communication' Methods -- If used Correctly and Efficiently, would indeed help to 'contain' some problems, Before they develope Roll Eyes Roll Eyes As for 'changing' Yes indeed!! It has become a lot slower!! If at all 'It' gets a reaction??

Our law and order is a joke. 3 youths on community orders, having commited crimes of robbery and violence, roaming the streets, kick a man to death.
 A man overfills his dustbin by 4ins is sent to prison for refusing to pay his fine.
In my opinion its not only more police we need, but desparately need some judges, magistrates or whatever they are called, with some common sense. I rest my case mi lud

Ah! William,  How so right you are!! -- I just have to laugh at The 'state' of today Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Yes!! We did read them all and More -- It just makes us feel SICK!! --
For those that commit Murder?? Do 'they' really think it is fun?? With 'their' Grins and fingers -- In Court???
 Do 'they' really Know or care that a Man's Life, has been Taken??  Any way one looks, It Is MURDER!!
As for 'Common Sense' Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Don't you know It DIED, quite some while ago. Nobody Noticed, and Nobody Attended The Funeral!! -- How are WE supposed To Get OUR Heads around this ALL ??  Give me The 1950s/60s!! We had Standards and Disipline!!
