I'm the first to admit that I don't live on the nicest estate in the world but I just took my DD to the playground before fetching DS's from school. At the playground were 4 children with 2 sets of parents. Both sets of parents looked about 16 and were drinking beer and smoking whilst ignoring their children completely. One child was a newborn baby who was dressed only in a nappy. (I know it's war but that is just silly). One child was about 2 and was sat in the baby swing several feet away from her parents, screaming her heart to be let out of the swing. She had no such luck. I left the playground after about 5 minutes feeling very uneasy and intimidated. You will not be surprised to find out that the beer cans and the fag ends were all left on the playground floor.
