Close to my home lives a family: man, woman and five children. None of the children has in common with any of the other children the same biological mother and father.
Not far from where I live are a number single parents: mother and child. It is clear from conversations that for most of the mothers the pregnancy was deliberate to enable them to secure a flat.
I know first - hand of a primary school which held a parents' evening. Out of the 28 children in the class the parents of only four children attended.
Welcome to a real world, not the world you or I may inhabit, but a parallel world. Is it any wonder that children who feel unloved wander the streets, or worse still, are kicked out on to the streets?
I have witnessed at first hand children from broken homes: children who come to school unfed, tired and in no fit state to be taught.
Quite how the government plans to mend the 'broken society' I do not know. How will it tackle the problem of feckless, uncaring and unloving parents?
The tragedy is that such behaviour has been condoned for many years. Governments have condoned it, indeed put systems in place to support and maintain it.

KENT COMMUNITY ACTIVIST: acerbic, carping, caustic, curmudgeonly,critical, cynical, grumpy, moaning, sardonic and plain speaking.
We missed the stitch in time. We allowed the hole in the fabric of our society to get larger and larger. It is no longer a hole it's a chasm. The Government has supported children being passed round like parcels and now it points the finger at parents. I point my finger right back at them.

Not to mention they turn on the TV and watch a political and elite class fiddle expenses, avoid taxes, escape punishment for crimes and palm their kids off on a succession of nannys and swan around living beautiful lives that would make anyone envious. The ruling elite are the ones who's liberal beliefs led to the removal of real punishments in schools and who caused the financial crisis (costing britain a LOT more than the riots did) through their investment gambles. The rot goes ALL the way through this society, and only those at the top really have the ability to change it, but why would they change it and lose some of the feathers out of their own nests.
ReplyDeleteFair comment. I agree entirely regarding the ruling elite and their liberal beliefs.
