My father was from Clyde Bank near Glasgow. He had a strong accent all his life. I'm one of five kids and not none of us speaks with a Glaswegian accent. We were raised in Surrey so have more of a south London accent. Thus, I don't fall for the idea that the kids speak like this because that's how their parents speak. Besides, I hear almost no elderly Afro-Caribbean people speak with this stupid "gangsta" accent. It's totally put on and false.
