Could it be that mothers are just too tired today after working to support a family that there just isn't enough quality time as a unit, and the shocking influences of modern day mass media fill the void? https://www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwall-news/cornwall-second-poorest-region-northern-617199

Yes Steve. I'm afraid the inflexible black/white strictures that lookout lays down as the only acceptable code for living would make life extremely difficult for many, and sometimes reveal her as being hard and unsympathetic.

Steve,as the head teacher of todays Gresham said---" It's a nation of snowflakes ".I can agree with him.
Life in the 60's/70's as a mother was a jolly sight harder in every way in bringing up a family than it is today and it's that hardship which molds you into the person that you are today. It makes you appreciate everything you have and also to face up to whatever life throws at you.
This is the difference in today's expectations.Life is what you make it and it's up to the individual to decide what they do with their lives.
Those who've never experienced real hardship are in no position to judge.

What would the point of that be when he was already facing life in prison for murder? He'd already been charged with theft over the caravan park anyway. Like it or not, he sold the stuff!

So he sold the stuff,what was the big deal ? Sheesh.

Well, you tell me? The fact that you lot have been making excuses and denying it for quite some time shows that you think it is a big deal. When it became obvious that he did sell the stuff, you're trying to play it down.

[lookout]

I didn't even " play it up " to play it down. I'd just groused about him not being able to sell his own stuff. I certainly didn't make as big a deal of it as you are doing with everything.

Of course not Lookout - you don't 'DO' "making a big deal"

You're right,I don't.
