exactly they are 15!!! yes, and at 16 they can stay out past curfew.

i don't understand yur point, what is wrong with expecting 15 y/o's to be home by 9pm???

Oh for the love of god, how could they get it so wrong?....

Well I don't think it's fair to bring in blanket legislation which hits the innocent just as much as the guilty and treats them the same, and I think it's perfectly reasonable for some under 16's to be out after 9pm and not be treated as a criminal for it

What do you mean?

I agree with this

Wait. What if i've gone to the hospital in Bangor with family and i have to go to the tesco after 9pm :idc: Will i end up in jail? :idc:

Bangor is just over 40 minutes away from me. I think it's stupid.. imo.

You will be fine as you would have been to the Hospital.


No you will not go to Jail.


This is to Control the Trouble Kids
not you.

I mean they are targetting everyone, which is wrong, I researched the pilot scheme after it was compleated and it was recieved favourably.

The major difference are the sanctions imposed... they are the issue, the pilot was voluntary, and it worked.

This :joker: (Joking obviously)

I couldn't agree more!

Of course it's not draconian - in at 9pm, talk to parents (that's a little thing known as communication for those families who've forgotten), sort out their school things, then bath or shower and bed.

I'm guessing they'd be in bed for roughly 11pm, which then gives their bodies/brains the average of 8hrs hours sleep per night to function properly.

We might even find that if they enforce this all over the country, we might just see and end to those zombie roaming, alcohol gulping pests - that behave erratically because they're not getting enough sleep or nurturing from their parents required for normal behaviour!

Just a thought :hugesmile:

Hopefully it will be an end to those nights of the walking dead :joker:

This is what happens when the tory champagne quaffer's make cuts to essential services such as policing and community and youth centres and yet let companies that helped fund the tory election campaign such as Amazon and Topshop pay zero tax despite earning £7.8billion pounds.
What do they think is going to happen to the youths that have nothing better to do in the evening except roam the streets that are suddenly also less policed than they have ever been?

Same old tory scum looking after their own.

You have helped me make my mind up on this one,I thought it sounded a good idea but from being 13,I was regularly not in by 9pm, as you say going to the Cinema with friends even just going home after visiting friends too.

I wouldn't have liked to 'have' to be in the house by 9pm, my Parents always knew where I was and trusted me so had this occurred then, why should I have had to conform to a blanket curfew on under 16s.

I am with you on this one, I am against it.

Before anyone thinks I am Tory, I'd just like to point out that not only am I not - but David CaMoron is the biggest incarnation on Maggies Thatch I have seen! :joker: I'm not for any Political party, I think they're all as bad as each other.

Now I've got that out the way, my response to your post - It is not up to the police, or any other service to look after children/teens, it's up to the parents.

I didn't go to youth clubs, I didn't hang around the streets causing a nuisance - and if I went to the cinema etc, I'd do it of a weekend.

If there was anything special happening on a school night, my Dad would take me and pick me up, but it was rare, as most of my friends parents were much like my own.

I know David CaMoron and the Tories like to look after number one - but in this case I agree.

If you have kids, look after them yourself - don't expect local services to at the expense of the rest of society.

We need to Review it after the 6months test
Give It a Chance

Lucky old you.

I was reading today about a study which says how just 4% of kids are responsible for almost half of all youth crime, all the more reason why sweeping legislation like this is dumb

I would say its above that
in any case its their fault - that every young kid is under this rule.
