Why are children always treated differently in the media? Surely its a tragedy if anyone is harmed?

People didn't bother much with health and safety when I was a kid.

As a nipper I'd be sitting on somebody's lap all the way to Cornwall. Nobody had or bothered with seat belts, so if you were 'launched through a 'toughened glass' windscreen it could be quite messy.

Character building they called it. ;)

When I was a child family holidays meant 8 of us kids plus mum and dad piling into dads Humber Supersnipe saloon.No one thought anything of it as such things were a common occurrence back then.

Three small kids in the well behind the rear seats of an old Beetle. Never thought of the consequences at the time. :-[

I was brought home from the hospital in a carrycot on the backseat of mum's Herald.
Later when me and my sister were 4 and 3, all four of us and an alsatian went all over the place in an Austin 1100. That wasn't unusual!

Oh, the shame. ;)

The 1300 GT had a certain appeal though........especially in the lurid colours of the time.

My son came home in a carrycot on the "shelf" behind the seats of an MGB soft-top, sharing said space with a Cocker Spaniel ... Top was up however as it was December ....  :)

Yeah, best selling car of the sixties and up until they turned it into the Allegro. Which was a backwards step.
