foul language

[chav1]

chav1 - isn't it everybodys duty to report any form of child abuse if they are witness to it? If you felt that these children were being abused why didn't you try to report the mother - why should it be the schools responsibility?

its kind of a tough call realy as it was happening on school property for starters and there are a lot of other children about and the last thing anyone would want to see is two adults kicking off infront of children especialy those under 10 years old

i dont think you could find any man who would walk into a school yard full of kids and start correcting an obviously disturbed woman

before you know it the screaming and swearing at the kids and swearing infront of other kids wouldnt be the issue in hand but would soon turn into more of a matter of a man approaching a defenceless woman picking her children up and starting a confrontation

before you know it the mans in the wrong and hes the one in trouble with the police

i do not know if this woman still goes to this school to pick up her kids , somthing may well have been done about it i realy dont know as i havnt been up there for a long while at the time kids are finishing school

as for laying the responsability on the school i personaly would like to think that if an adult was acting in that way in front of the schools pupils on school property the head teacher would have the power to ban that person from coming onto school property and make them find other means of getting their children to school

all i can say is that although i have strong reservations about bad language infront of children it is not my place to correct parents who swear at their kids but if anyone swore at my kids like that they would then most definatly find themselves going head to toe with somone who although may know just as many nasty words as them would easily beat them down in any argument without having to use one of them

i realy dont want to come off as some snotty nosed git but i kind of felt that things had been turned around by your remark to make me look the bad guy for not reporting it, but in the real world things arnt that simple and to be quite honest i dont think anything i could have said or done would have made things any better but more than likely made things worse

She isn't Scottish by any chance is she?

A scottish women with here back up will match any guy in a swearing match and enjoy it. Even the kids think it is normal to swear to the extent a sailor would blush. It is a sign of the times that leting rip with swear words and derogotory comments is second nature and who is to blame, well I think we all are. I am pulled up on a regular basis by my daughter for it even when it is under my breath.

We as a nation seem to have lost that little bit that says it is impolite to swear and just carry on as if it is normal. If we are to rid ourselves of this polite society needs to be ingrained from an early age. The worst swearing is people are drunk and with women it is even worse as they have a habit of screaming swear words just for effect. A lovers tiff in the middle of the street after anight on the tiles is the most common place.

Kids at school from an early age seem to swear in every sentence so what chance do we have.

Men swear most, but it sounds worse coming from a woman.

I swore a lot when I was younger exept when an elder was about.
But now I only tend to use bad language when I'm very angry.
