Today's kids aren't allowed out of the house. We weren't allowed into the fucker, only for meals and bed
This is so true. :)
My mother would cheerfully instruct us to go and play with the buses.
And that was when bus spotting wasn’t as populist as it is now.
She was ahead of her time.
The problem with kids is not the kids. It’s our generation and younger ones forgetting that the things we admired about our parents, ie, they took absolutely no shit from us. They let us grow up and learn shit, sometimes the hard way.
A lot of people let their kids set the tone.
If I had attempted such a strategy as a nipper, I would have been instantly travelling across the floor at high speed.
Kids aren’t allowed out for more than ten fucking minutes before an alarm goes up on FB.
It’s not the kids fault they’re spoiled little cunts. It’s the adults who spoil them.
You wouldn’t even think of giving your dad or mum an earful. Or your neighbours, as this would lead to an utter tanking.
If my dad gave me the stare, I Fucking knew I was dicing.
I didn’t need, or Indeed ever get, two stares in a row. My dad was very particular about that rule. And to be fair to myself, I picked up the gist of the situation rather quickly.
