That's because most southerners think the world ends north of the Watford Gap!

..I also think that it would be good if people could and would try to talk in a 'mature' and respectful way to each other but I've probably got a bit 'pffft' at for suggesting that before so maybe that's just not possible...



Yes there are many Young Punks
that have no care for TIBB rules.

Except in the case of multiple births (triplets or more) for a first pregnancy which obviously is beyond human control

Pisses me off when people who don't work, and have no intentions of working, have baby after baby after baby to rake in the benefits, and don't basically give a crap about the kids, who then grow up to continue the cycle cos it's all they know, it's the done thing to be spongers.

I hate that mentality.

I think it is on the cards. Part of the benefit cuts.

..for me though, there aren't any 'young punks' Arista..or any old punks either..it is just a personal experience thing and not an age thing, people of any age can respect and people of any age can disrespect...

Think it's strange when people kiss dog on mouth/treat them like it's their kid/dress them up
SCD is boring

Natalie. 07-10-2013 10:32 AM

King Gizzard 07-10-2013 10:35 AM

I think it is?

At least my midwife told me that I could breastfeed anywhere I chose to.

I didn't end up breastfeeding (gigantic boobs and not enough milk :bored: ) but if her advise was wrong, I would have been in for a hell of a lot of embarrassment :o

Natalie. 07-10-2013 11:04 AM

Being from the midlands I don't feel northern or southern

the actual sun it makes me squint and blinds me so I can barely see and its out yet again today!!!!!:shocked:

If we are speaking candidly about tibb in general regarding showing respect and such. I would say for me personally it was older members and some longstanding members that have been the most confrontational.
It's not always a bad thing and can in most cases lead to a better understanding, there is a limit to how many chances you give to find that common ground however.

Vicky. 07-10-2013 11:57 AM

I tend to respect my elders automatically as thats how I was brought up. However if an older person is a twat to me, I no longer respect them regardless of age, and I wouldn't hesitate to call them out on being a twat either.

Kizzy 07-10-2013 11:58 AM

I don't believe this rubbish about anyone under 25 having issues with making decisions.
I think it's pseudo- science to justify the governments discrimination of those under 25.

Kizzy 07-10-2013 12:02 PM

I think 'beauty' pagents for under 16's should be banned.

Josy 07-10-2013 12:02 PM

Respect has to be earned imo regardless of age..

Lee. 07-10-2013 12:03 PM

I think men are better drivers than women

Smithy 07-10-2013 12:04 PM

Fat people shouldn't be allowed to have beards or moustaches, it makes them look unhygienic because they're always greasy faced and sweaty

Vicky. 07-10-2013 12:05 PM

Oh heres a nice sexist one

I think only men should be able to do certain jobs. Police and firefighter being the main ones.

Personally, even though they have had the same training and stuff, a female police officer doesn't make me feel safe :shrug:
