View Full Version : Are today's kids and young adults 'sick'? (UPDATED)

Before answering the question bare this in mind:

- Last year in my village where I live in Cardiff, an old man was tripped up and put into a coma.

- A few months ago at my sister's school, a frog was found, thrown into some stingy nettles, stamped on then used as a football whilst still alive.

- Last month some drunken youthes at a nearby train station threw a rock at a squirrel then pushed it onto a track and let it get squelched.

- On the weekend some kids broke into my village youth centre trashed the place, found a rodent and battered and microwaved it till it exploded, again whilst alive.

- A little while ago last christmas, some kids rat-a-tat-tatted on a local old chinese man and then when he went out to see who it was slammed his door shut and ran

- Today my sister came in and told me some of her fellow 10 year old friends had put a jack russell in a bag with a baby fox and let the dog rip the foxes jaw off and then battered the fox whilst still alive in the bag against a tree trunk.

All this in the space of a year or so involving young children in Cardiff alone. :bored:

These sort of people don't even deserve to live. There is no excuse and it's just sick, twisted and disgusting.

Did you really need to describe how each animal had been tortured and mutilated?

Anyway, it's not "todays" kids, there's bad people from all over history. It's hardly a new phenomenon that children kill animals.

Billy
02-08-2007, 06:16 PM
Definitely not. Just cos some of that has happened doesnt mean todays kids are all sick

Lmao Lauren. Your post made me laugh, dont know why:nono:

Not ALL kids are like this, and I HATE when people stereotype all kids that go near a chip shop as chavs etc.

Me and my friends (2 friends) walked past two old ladies and they moved to the side and complained.
Its so annoying, we werent doing anything wrong.

Oh my god...... I am speechless.......I am against any cruelty against anyone or any animal.... and what you posted made me very sad.

I wouldnt tarnish all young people with the same brush..... I know some smashers who have been raised in a way that they respect people and things around them.

I am not sure to blame the parents, and I remember tails from my childhood, which told of some horrid horrid things.

I guess we get to hear about them more and more as we now live in a society which has instant access to media and the abilty to film these such crimes on a phone :sad:

I witnessed the train squirrel incident and I've seen photos of the microwave rodent incident and I too felt like throwing up, hence why I posted this topic.


Plus Callum read the link above if you are from Cardiff as you might know the village where it took place (and where I live).

I totally agree. If it was them that was being tortured they would think again.

The stories Bigbrotherin described are awful. Some kids are so twisted. :nono:

Ruth

I don't think people are any worse than they always have been. It's just that it's so much more widely reported nowadays. For example, when John Lennon was shot, it was a whole day before we got to hear about it in the UK - nowadays we would know within 10 minutes. To put it another way - I would not have known about those things that have happened in Cardiff, if it was not for coming on here - the internet makes things known a lot more quickly.

Sophii3x
03-08-2007, 09:01 AM
Those incidents are just so twisted and sickening. And the fact that it's kids doing these things is very disturbing.

Theres been similar incidents in my hometown. About 2 years ago on the area where my friend lives a gang of boys were kicking a stray puppy, until it died. I only knew about it because it was in the newspaper the next day.

I don't think it's really fair though to label all kids sick because of these incidents, but the kids that do this kind of stuff ARE sick.

Sunny_01
03-08-2007, 03:06 PM
I blame the parents.............is what many people will cry, but at the end of the day most of these things are carried out by young people old enough to know that it is just wrong! even 10 year olds know it is wrong to hurt an animal.

I dont think that today's kids are sick at all, there is a minority of kids who are happy to be involved in this type of thing and like others have said we only hear about it because we have much better ways of getting news these days.

Did you take any action when you "witnessed" the train track incident?

You pin point the real problem indeed. No sign it will alter either.

I think some are in denial when they think such barbaric behavour from some so young has always happened. As a person that has spent 66 years on this planet. the answer is no. sadistic cruelty on the scale it is today by the young was not that bad when I was younger....The internet cannot be used as an excuse that we here about things quickly but really things arn't that bad...... It is that bad.....

I have walked my dog and been told by an 8 year old that he wanted to steal it and burn it.......Would that have happened 40 years ago. No under no circumstances.No.

It will get wors. it will never get better.....A generation of cold blooded individuals will spread the same cold blooded sentiment and life style to their future children

No this does not mean all young people should be tarnished with the same brush.

What it does mean is that there is a very large minority and growing that will continue such behavour and escalate their future children to be just as disfunctional......

Lauren
03-08-2007, 08:21 PM
Barbaric behaviour has happened way before 66 years ago. At the risk of breaking Godwins Law (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwins_Law) there've been MANY examples of such behaviour in the past (i.e. gassing Jews).
When my dad was younger someone killed his dog by drowning it in a river, for example - it's happened throughout time.
I was reading Catherine Cookson a few weeks ago and the book was from around 1910, there was descriptions of barbaric behaviour (including killing animals) from there too.
It's closed-minded of you to say outright there was low barbaric behaviour "back then".

I'm sorry, but I think that's very naive. I'm sorry about what the person said to you while you were walking your dog, but why on earth would you assume that that wouldn't have happened years ago?

I think it's wrong to group up all us teenagers and younger people and tar us all with the same brush, you wouldn't say all Muslims are terrorists, All americans are dumb, all scottish people wear kilts and have long ginger hair....etc. So why is it allowed to stereotype all Teenagers like this? There are bad people of all ages and backgrounds.

On the matter at hand, These individuals are incredible sick and need some sort of psychiatric help. Obviously something is awfully wrong if they enjoy torturing animals like this.

I have been walking dogs for many a year and no such attitudes by someone so young ever happened to me before.
Neither do I know of any such case from the past.

Horrible things have gone on in the past of cours. However it is the volume of childrens atrocities that makes the difference from the past relavent to today. Put simply and not naively it is worse today than in the past....To believe otherwise is being in denial. As long as there is denial then a solution becomes impossible.....Where there is denial it will get worse not better......

04-08-2007, 09:44 PM
Ok. More recent examples of todays sadistic attitudes from young kids..

Friend of mine walking her dogs in the park gets a gang of kids throwing stones at them and trying to kick them. Little Jack russels rescue dogs. One of which was rescued from sadistic kids kicking hell out of it....She told them not to as you would. Reaction. Sticks were thrown at her..

Another example wittnessed by myself.Old chap walking through the park one kid out of a group just went up to him and slapped him across the face for no reason. Unlucky for them a couple of community police just entered the park...

Another inciden a few months ago old lady in her seventies attacked by a kid aged about 12 high on drugs had to be pulled off her by his mates. Heaven knows what would have become of the old lady had he been alone with her......

Another case very recent seen by myself. Not a kid this time but an adult riding a cycle on the pavement nearly knocked an elderly mans walking stick out of his hand with the wheel of his bike. Did he say sorry!!! No. He told the old man to get off the pavement..

Another case couple of weeks ago witnessed two kids on bikes in the park deliberatey steering the wheels of their bike into a cat crossing the path.....They made two attempts to run it over.

There are lots of good kids out there. I am not trying to paint all kids with the same brush.The point is there is also now a much higher number of kids that are not just bad but actually quite sinister in some cases.. Much more prevelant than ever it was in the past....In my past such things never happened. Can't speak for others but 40 years ago the streets were nearly always a safe place to walk your pets. Now they are not....

Lauren
04-08-2007, 09:50 PM
Okay, will you stop posting examples now. It's making me feel literally sick.

bananarama, those things do happen in todays society, yes - but it's very closed-minded and naive of you to think they didn't happen "back then". For instance, crime figures (including violent crime) have been on a gradual decrease for years. But you don't get that picture from the media, we get constant bombardment of shootings and stabbings here, there and everywhere.

Your missing the point. I am not saying it did not happen in the past. The difference is that it would be a rarity in the past. that rare I and most would not experience the examples given....Today it is at a frightining level and being in denial will mean the problem is mentaly swept under the carpet....

I did shout at them to stop throwing rocks at the squirrels but they took no notice. I was crossing the bridge to the platform where it was taking place to ask them properly when I saw the one that got killed get struck and by the time I got to the platform (this was a rural village station where the platforms are quite far from each other) they were throwing it off onto the track. I did go mad at them when the train was coming though but it was too late, the squirrel got hit.

To those people saying it's more known because of the media etc you do realise only 1 of the incidents I mentioned were known of and reported by the media. So it's not that at all.


I'm not saying that it didnt happen yonks ago, my dad witnessed stuff like this too and he's 68. What I'm saying is it seems to happen more often now and they seem to get more sinister. I can note all the ones from my OP from just the past year, my father can only name about half that amount for his whole life, and he has a very good memory and things like this stick in your memory.

Bigbrotherin
05-08-2007, 01:54 AM
Oh and

UPDATE - Police are doing finger print tests from the village hall to find out who was behind the beaten microwaved rodent incident.

however, they'll need to have finger prints of all the kids in the area likely to do this to compare them to and I can't see them asking for the finger prints of every child in the village (there are 2000 people in this quite large village), for one most kids would refuse to have their prints taken, I know I would.

I was too busy trying to stop them to get a pic. Plus I don't know whether I had my mobile with me. However I will try to next time. I do seem to remember them laughing and getting on to the train that had killed the squirrel. The train was going from Radyr village (where the station is) to Coryton if that helps anyone.

You did say it would not have happened in the past. You write, "Under no circumstances. No," in response to whether or not this would have happened in the past.

How do you know it wouldn't have happened in the past? Because you didn't hear about it? My point exactly.

And Bigbrotherin - you make the point that only one of these cases was reported by the media. But you know about all of them and are passing details on to us - years ago, you would not have been able to do this, because we didn't have the internet, with forums, email etc. That's kind of the point.

Your missing the point. I am not saying it did not happen in the past. The difference is that it would be a rarity in the past. that rare I and most would not experience the examples given....Today it is at a frightining level and being in denial will mean the problem is mentaly swept under the carpet....

Yes but people said that you just hear about it more these days because of the media and stuff and I was simply saying that I the person that heard it, didn't hear it because of the media. I was just making sure they didn't think that I'd just heard this on tv or something.

Are today's young adults sick too?
Apparently the 23-year old mother and 22-year old step-father of a four year old girl are being sentenced to day for the killing of their own daughter. The couple beat, kicked, punched, bit and pushed the child over and over and then left her to die, the mother would have been 19 when the child was born and the step-father would have been 18. She was found by paramedics on the floor of their flatt's living room with bruises "similar to those of a road-accident victim".

- Last year in my village where I live in Cardiff, an old man was tripped up and put into a coma.

- A few months ago at my sister's school, a frog was found, thrown into some stingy nettles, stamped on then used as a football whilst still alive.

- Last month some drunken youthes at a nearby train station threw a rock at a squirrel then pushed it onto a track and let it get squelched.

- On the weekend some kids broke into my village youth centre trashed the place, found a rodent and battered and microwaved it till it exploded, again whilst alive.

- A little while ago last christmas, some kids rat-a-tat-tatted on a local old chinese man and then when he went out to see who it was slammed his door shut and ran

- Today my sister came in and told me some of her fellow 10 year old friends had put a jack russell in a bag with a baby fox and let the dog rip the foxes jaw off and then battered the fox whilst still alive in the bag against a tree trunk.

All this in the space of a year or so involving young children in Cardiff alone. :bored:

thats just discusting! how can people do this? urgh would they like getting battered against a tree? i dont think so sick and twisted people!
