'both parents working' is a situation which has been common in Lancashire since the Industrial revolution. My mother worked in t'mill and her mother before that.
It is not mothers working that appears to be the problem, but rather what happens to that extra income.

Very valid point, and I've made it myself before.

The vast majority of families in this part of the world had women who went out to work in t'mills.

Nothing to do with female liberation, or modern society, just a fact.

I can always remember my Mother working from when I was very small, its rather a lame excuses citing the high cost of living for feral kids. If kids are brought up right and taught the wrongs and rights at an early age, then they will grow into respectable adults themselves and bring up their kids in the same way. Its only when parents don't give a stuff what there children are doing when they are out of their sight, is where the trouble starts and providing kids with booze while they go out on the razz isn't the answer

I agree it is not because the parents work - it's just because they are bad parents.

The thing is Neil, where both parents in the house worked then nine times out of ten the kids turned out right, the problems are the same now as went we were young, kids from families were parents did't work and did't give a damn what their off springs are doing are usually the ones causing the trouble, it was in my youth can't think its any different today

Can't really understand your meaning Neil, didn't say that, I said that Kids usually take after their parents, which is something of a recognised fact

just because a parent doesnt work doesnt mean that they dont care what their kids are doing... there a re a few single parents on here that arent working and they are good parents.

Sorry ema but single parents are working, we are talking about families where neither parents work by choise, and their kids usually follow in their footsteps
