I can certainly back up your comment about 9 or 10 of them living in one house. I live in a block of flats and some Poles have been living in the flat diagonally up from me. The landlord insisted that there were only 3 females living in the house, yet we constantly saw different faces coming and going. I think the most we counted was 8, living in a 3 bed flat. My neighbour directly above me had to chase one of them out of her living room at 3am as they got drunk and broke in. He then tried to get in to each of the 4 other flats in our block on his way down the stairs. They (thankfully) moved out last week. For only having "3 females" living in the flat, I couldn't understand why 4 double beds were moved out of the flat. However, I do not agree in tarring all of them with the same brush. The last place I worked had loads of Poles. Many of which I got on really well with. After telling them about the above incident, they were horrified by the behaviour and were apologising profusely even though they didn't know these people. I think it's the same where ever you go. There are always a few who let the whole side down. :007:

Johnboy, my folks caught me smoking about 5 months before my 17th birthday. My dad didn't speak to me for 4 days because he was so disappointed in me. But at that point, I couldn't see how right he was. I still get lectures everytime I spark up "That's another nail in your coffin" etc. I think my dad's proudest moment was when I was about 19 and I admitted that he was a fantastic Dad and was right about most things when I was growing up. He was so chuffed! :003: I'm 22 and I still can't bring myself to swear in front of my folks for fear o getting a skelp! The odd one slips out every now and again and they take great delight in taking the mick when it happens. Something really has to be done and fast. I have two visions of the future - either everything is going to go completely to pot and society will crumble or it will go all "Demolition Man" - everything that is bad for you is illegal, licences needed for pregnancy etc. Scary thought like!

To an extent, I do believe that some of the blame lies with the parents. I grew up in South Kessock and my friends used to think it was amazing that my parents punished me for being late home or back-chatting them. I spent half of my childhood being grounded and it taught me to respect people and that my actions had consequences. However CCC has a point. Parents now may be too scared to try disciplining their children for fear of the authorities. The thought of my father's shovel-like hand connecting with my backside was enough of a deterent for me! I believe it's because of my parents discipline that I did really well throughout school, got good grades and am doing ok now... one of my old friends who was NEVER disciplined as a child has just been released from jail... :007:
