Very true slinky indeed, same applies with schools whom dish out awards for attending school et those that do attend without complaint dont get the same praise - its just expected
They have a go at parents but media & society repeatedley give bad kids the rewards, no wonder there is so many bad uns about if they are going to be rewarded for it - personally good behaviour should be rewarded & bad behaviour sanctioned & made uncool.
Sounds like sweep the bad ones under he carpet pay em off the streets - rediculously counter productive
