Hi Linda, I may be very much alone here, but I blame the Americanisation of our television, with their trashy cartoon programmes directed at schoolchildren when they are getting ready to go to school. My daughters two youngest, demand that the TV is on for breakfast, the content of which is to me, undesirable. Blame the parents? Hardly, what they hear as they go to school with their "friends" makes you wish you`d let them watch TV instead. Remonstrate with the parents, then you you will hear words you did not even think about, directed at you, take any action and they tell you they know where you live. An answer? Restrict the hours of television broadcasting, get as far away from American TV as we can. And listen to the howls of dismay. We managed before TV came. Kids didn`t use obscene words, the Headmaster`s word was law, and yes, I`m in favopur corporal punishment of offenders. And to Protect Martin and the Forum, this can only be my opinion. Bill.
