You could say that now middle class kids are being infected with the same attitudes as the feral kids.<BR/><BR/>As I pointed out last night the stat that really hits you is 38% of 16 year olds who are not living with a both birth parents.<BR/><BR/>Now take the governments proposals of marriage and co-habitation, for middle class people, the majority, these ideas are fine and dandy,nothing to get upset about BUT where they will have a big devastating impact is at the bottom ends where parenting is already hard as you don't have the recourses that middle class parents do.<BR/><BR/>So we will get a continued breakdown of the idea of marriage as a contract to bring kids in the world, more kids without both parents, especially boys who need fathers to knock them into place now and again (yep i needed it as well) more feral youth at the bottom end of society, infecting more kids from better backgrounds, and the problem will just get worse over the years, slowly but surly.<BR/><BR/>What is needed is a complete change in social policy in the UK, and i dont see it happening, the Middle classes have got cash in their pockets, they can use it to go to better areas, put in security devices, and keep their kids indoors until they are older.<BR/><BR/>The main question is will there be a tipping point where this situation really starts to affect them and they start voting accordingly.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362169593902131947noreply@blogger.com
