I'm so glad I'm ...The world's gone mad! I'm so glad I'm not growing up as a child today.<br /><br />I can remember childhood summer holidays. Our parents didn't spend their time driving us to adventure centres, but every day was still an adventure.<br /><br />I remember one day during the summer holidays (I must have been about 10 or 11), my mother asked: “Where have you been all day?”. I said: “We met a man who asked me and my friend if we wanted to work on his farm. We said 'yes', so that's where we've been”. And that was my first job. He collected us at 9 o'clock each morning, six days a week for the rest of the summer, and Saturdays were pay days.<br /><br />We grew up assuming adults were normal, healthy, trustworthy people. On that farm, we trusted him, and he trusted us. There was probably the same tiny percentage of paedophiles then as now but it didn't result in us living under virtual house arrest like so many children nowadays.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-61071864823488687862009-07-06T20:19:06.445+01:002009-07-06T20:19:06.445+01:00Bedfordshire seems to be a particular sh*thole for...Bedfordshire seems to be a particular sh*thole for this sort of crap- I live in Bedfordshire, my brother and I once had to collect my sister from her local UPPER school when she had done her leg in, the idea was to go and meet her in the school reception and help her to the car. Of course the moment we set foot through the gates we was beset by some bearded, bespectacled twat (who looked far more like a child molester than I do I can asure you) who ordered us off the premesis even though he knew my brother since he had taught him and knew that he and my sister were brother and sister. Of course if I'd been my mother nothing would have been said about an older woman but two young men surrounded by teenagers... Of course had we been up to no good there were plenty of teenage gorrilas around who would like-as-not have gladly kicked our heads in. Apparently it was a child safety issue though, so that's alright then... worms.Speenzmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-20003097054937646892009-07-06T14:02:22.074+01:002009-07-06T14:02:22.074+01:00As adults and parents why do we need to be 'su...As adults and parents why do we need to be 'supervised.'

The whole object was to demonstrate to them the prowess of their offspring and the excellence of the school's training. The type of officious idiocy described here would have been unthinkable to my teachers, and our parents would probably have lynched them if they had attempted to impose such a ban.anticanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18135207107619114891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-53197067156410746922009-07-06T10:16:16.425+01:002009-07-06T10:16:16.425+01:00It really was only a matter of time after all the ...It really was only a matter of time after all the bans of people photographing their own child in case there is another child in the frame.<br /><br />Still stupid though.<br /><br />Soon parents wont be allowed near their kids and all schools will be boarding schools... and the teachers still wont be allowed to discipline them!ENnoreply@blogger.com
