17 year olds don't tend to spend most of their time with mum and dad.

Children act like this because their parents don't know how to displine them

Every wrong person in the world is that way because the parents didn't discipline them?

How very naive.

...poor lady.....so terrifying for her, so callous and unfeeling from those young people...why her ...why anyone..?...why would anyone do that to anyone else, so unfeeling...


...whilst I find this as abhorrent as everyone else and I don’t make excuses at all...Bury St Edmunds is my local town and there is nothing or very, very little for young people there...this surely has to be addressed finally because of this incident...?..it’s something that many of us have been screaming about for a long, long time and been quite vocal about it etc...how can it have ended up any other way when there is no focus, nothing for young people to get involved in, in the way of community and caring for their community and feeling a valuable part of it...and also social and entertainment distractions etc...there is also a complete lack of police presence atm to the point of some literally being told to ‘solve their own crime reports’ for some things...in the Bury St Edmunds parks and in the town centre there has always been an active police presence until the last few years and that’s so important to prevent...and it’s so important to have community police officers as well as help and guidance for young people...I just can’t with this government and their cutbacks...which for me have resulted in these things...this awful thing directed at this poor lady...


...awful, just awful......

Yeah many of us grew up in situations like this we didn't turn feral, sorry Ammi that is no excuse whatsoever, not having anything to do shouldn't mean you suddenly forget your morals or have no empathy or feel it is okay to assault a fellow human being, maybe they could do some volunteering somewhere I'm sure there is public transport out of Bury St Edmunds if there is nothing to do there

...that’s why I said I wasn’t excusing their behaviour though, Cherie because there is no excuse for it...there are things though that can be done to prevent things like this happening...to possibly have prevented that poor lady to have gone through something like this if there had been more police presence..and yeah, volunteering is something which definately makes all people feel valued in a community, whether young or older etc...but again, there is no guidance in that either around Bury St Edmunds atm with community policing and such the like...no excuses but possibilities to help prevent is all which surely must be something to be considered in the lack of funding ways we have now...

...well that could have some truth as well, Adam...the world is not full of perfect parents who are capable of disciplining their children just perfectly, if only, eh...what a great world that would be...that’s why many families need care for the whole family including the parents and they need guidance etc and they need plans put in place from various social organisations...and they all need to work together to achieve that discipline balance etc...sadly though, the funding just isn’t there..it’s not like the government don’t know what’s needed or how to give it...they just don’t act is all...

Bit judgemental.

At the end of the day, sometimes parents can do everything right but their kid is just a little cockrot of a human being regardless. Some people are just born to be *****.
