Default 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.

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.

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

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

Not all kids should be tarred with the same brush, it is only people who would do things like that who are sick. That's horrible what they did, absolutely sick.

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.

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.

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.

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?
