Took 11 year old DD to a local park today with DSis and DN (3). Drunk teenagers everywhere. Literally about 30-40 of them. Because they were gathering in a certain area, poor DN couldn't get near it or understand why. One, about 14, with her bum literally hanging out of her shorts decided to stop by me and DD and shout "SUCK MY DICK EMO!" at us. DD visibly shocked and I couldn’t say a fucking word for fear of us both being jumped by the rest of them. It actually sickens me that kids around here (nearby Liverpool) get away with murder. Sometimes actual attempted, they wont blink before they'll go for a grown man with a knife. You cant say a thing because they're all Billy big bollocks in gangs, the lads wearing balaclavas. Police wont do a thing.
AIBU in thinking this is no way to live?!

This is Liverpool. Shootings and stabbings daily. I live nearby. The police don’t bother with the latter, barely with the former unless it's newsworthy. It's a fucking cesspool. Glad this one was convicted.

Although on another thread the op does seem somewhat familiar with Liverpool

I would expect many people who live in Reading, and other towns nearby London, to be familiar with London. However, they still do not live in London.

you really have lost me with reading and London!

I was a Londoner for 12 years (zone 2) and if anyone had said they lived nearby London and transpired they lived in Reading… I would have dissolved in to giggles!

If you look at the Iceland Youth Project, then yes actually kids would rather be doing something productive with their time like table tennis, dance, skateboarding, football, art, music or whatever. No one aspires to sitting around a park getting drunk, taking drugs and whatever else.

Show quote history

The typical teenagers getting pissed, stoned out of their heads and shouting suck my dick are not the teenagers who would skip merrily off to the sort of activities you are suggesting.

At last! Thank you.

Oh good Lord! 😂

@Ursualesther we've recently moved from an incredibly expensive, middle class village in the South East because the teens were out of control and children seriously assault other children daily with no consequence from parents, the secondary school or police. A child will be killed there before long.
