I know Niamh,I'de be furious,I'de be happy to ground her or take away her TV etc,I just think selling her 1D tickets and declaring it for all to see is far too hard,told you I'm a soft touch:hugesmile:

I hope her daughter has cried so much that she has no energy left.

Oh no I wouldn't have done the second part, not a chance

She would have been too tired to go anyway after getting ****ed by older men whose house she stayed at so the concert doesnt matter.
But make sure you arent too harsh to her.

..yeah of course parents don’t always make the ‘right’ decision ..there isn’t a ‘right’ decision anyway, we all do what we think is the right thing and you don’t have to have children of your own to say what you think is right and what isn’t..but this isn’t about that, it’s not about her decision to take back the tickets..it’s about making that decision so public, which we definately don’t all do...if we feel our children’s actions deserve a sanction, then we enforce it without needing any declarations because it’s between us and our children..she didn’t even just declare it to friends and family but to the vastness of the internet, which she then has no control over..so she herself invited all opinions about it...

So the daughter is allegedly getting shafted by older men but had tickets to go see one direction? She must be about 13 or 14 that's disgusting at least she can listen to some proper music now, every cloud and all that....

Ah yes good point. I guess this is all fair then

That's a bit of a conclusion to leap to, she could be 16 and the older guy could be 17 or 18

Oy you Mr ,I like 1 Direction and I'm not a teenager:hugesmile:

So her parents respond to reckless and irrational behaviour with equally reckless and irrational behaviour. Makes total sense.

..the Ebay listing only said 'so that she and her friends could hang at an older guy's house..'..to me that means 'hang out'...so I think that's a lot bigger judgement to assume it was something more...and quite a disturbing judgement if they were indeed 14/14yrs..but their age would just be an assumption as well...

:joker: I always jump to conclusions, I'm British it's what I do.

Well I guess there will always be a few outside the 13 year old screaming fan girls bracket :dance:

Yes I'm aware the eBay listing didn't say her daughter and her friends were doing the monkey business with the guys but I doubt they are going over to play snakes and ladders......

..tbh I think that's just highlighted the dangers of saying what she did on the internet about young vulnerable girls...you just don't know what assumptions and judgements could be made and in light of bullying/suicides etc, it's a very dangerous thing to do...

..referring to young girls as 'trollops' and one of those girls is your own daughter as well is pretty much leaving them open to judgements from strangers who could then bully them..that's a very serious thing...

Slut shaming your own daughter on the internet is pretty awful parenting in my opinion; but I think selling her daughter's tickets is fair enough - I don't know their situation but from what was said, it seems like the daughter and her friends lied about what they were doing and were pretty pleased with themselves and were found out by the parents who were naturally furious that their child was taking the piss out of them. Tough love but I'm sure it'll teach her a lesson.

Where's my post gone as well? It wasn't insulting, offensive or stirring?

Mine was on topic. I was querying Ammi's post?

The part of Ammis post which you asked her about was referring to a deleted post and was not about the topic in this thread, it has now been removed from Ammis post.

Now can we get back on topic please?

Harsh. The mother seems a feisty one.

Me too! :laugh:

So THEY are cashing in on her bad behaviour? That makes sense!!!!!!!!!!

My thoughts exactly

If it was real it would be horrendous parenting... If this woman WAS her teenage daughters friend rather than her authoritarian keeper, then maybe the girl wouldn't feel like she needs to lie to her in the first place.

99% sure its not real though, just a ticket tout getting their eBay listing to go viral for a higher sale price.
