Walked the dogs tonight at a local park.

Lots of Little teenage darlings, sat in the play area, drinking their lager - basically someone had been setting fire to everything  including wooden equipment. Personally not sure how they stood the smoke!

I called it in - needless to say, there were some blue lights pretty quick - unfortunately a bit too late though, the damage had already been done.

Parents at home watching EastEnders no doubt.

I would ask why damage stuff that is for local kids to use, but I won't

[HolyCount]

Then the little loves complain that there is nothing provided to keep them lawfully entertained !!!!  No .... because they have destroyed it !!!!!

not too bad when i think what i used to get up to at that age, me BMX didnt always keep me quiet.

Our swings etc where made of telegraph polls old tyres and chains. Hard to smash that up.

Dont tell me it was much differant when you all where that age. You may have been better or worse behaved but the situation was the same, desperate to get out of the hourse, too young for the pub, and no parents would have other kids round, and nor would you want to anyway.

Might have left them alone. Not wrecking personal property then.

No EE on a Wed  Parents probably used Orange Wednesday and left kids behind..?
None the less, that was a sign of disrespect to communal grounds

Dont tell me it was much differant when you all where that age. .

Actually, yes it was.

We would push the boundaries, have some beers, and be rowdy - but never commit bloody arson, ffs!

Might have left them alone.

We'll have to agree to disagree on this one, mate.

That kind of behaviour needs stamping out.

I'm not a killjoy, and will turn a blind eye to many things within reason -  but there are boundaries...

Agree wholeheartedly with James.

Arson, theft, malicious damage, I don't care what it is, it is not acceptable and the fact that oldies may have done it before when they were young does not make it anymore acceptable in my book. It's criminal and it's wrong.

I maintain my view - but, having re-read it, apologies it's a little tongue in cheek 

[Stevie-blunder]

And they wonder why there's nothing for them !!

Sounds like we are the same generation I agree, lets bring it back, before it is too late

Was not really refering to what did or didnt happen. More of the "possibly" hypocritical attitude to the situation(which i didnt witness) by people(who i dont know personally or their history as kids) on here that take a such a dim view of a situation that they "possibly" may have been in themselves to a varying degree.

Alot of assumptions in my statement that may well be unfair. My apologies. But a little understanding of the opposite view goes a long way, esp if you have been there yourself, we where all young once is my point.

I was not at all implying that they should get away with it. Despite my tongue in cheek comment at the end. :-)
