On our estate there is a 'park' with a kiddies playground, swings/slides etc. There used to be a 'youth' shelter, basically a roof with vandal proof seating, I say used to be because teens from miles around would come to use the park.
When I say use, this meant:
Human poo smeared down the kiddies slide.
The swings thrown over the top bars.
Hippie crack canisters strewn all over the park.
Residents bins pinched and set alight,so they could keep warm.
Kicking residents fences in, and general vandalism.
Needless to say, after many complaints, the shelter was taken down, these kids have only themselves to blame through their mindless behaviour they spoilt a good thing.
Some years ago, a pupil from the local comp was killed in a road accident, a tree was planted on the park as a memorial to the boy, as he played for the local football team on that pitch. It lasted two days before it was torn out. Someone turned the kid in who did it, and he was a classmate of the dead boy.
'Parents' are seen dropping their little darlings at the park, and then giving them booze!
This is in the most affluent village of our town, so it's not some sink estate, and before I am flamed as a 'pearl clutcher', I was brought up in a very rough area and can hold my own, but myself nor any of my group of friends then, would have never behaved like this.
Now there are no consequences.
