DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD BE SENTING EIGHT YEAR OLD TO CO,OP WITH £20 Note CROSS A BUSY ROAD IN THE DARK.

[flowers114]

Hi All
A Question for you Do you think A 8 years old should go to a co.op with a £20 note cross a busy road in the dark.

this thread is doing my head in

This is a joke thread, right? Have only read first post, will read the rest now.

It depends. If the 8 year odl were very sensible and the Coop was very close and there was a crossing then maybe.

"I just know what you think about child going out to Question for you Do you think A 8 years old should go to a co.op with a £20 note cross a busy road in the dark. "

What now? Eh? Sense make?...no...

Ahhh I see - it's a rhetorical question

Er....no.

I do this all the time! My 5 year old will often go shopping for us, across a busy main road, in the pitch blackness. We like to take bets on whether she'll make it back or not!

Is this wrong do you think?

I used to go out a lot on my own at this age and came to no harm.

but getting a group of people on mn to agree it's stupid isn't going to stop them is it? so what was the point of the question, you obviously know it's wrong

nothercules, I beg to differ... it gave you a twitchy mouse clicking finger!

yes, why not?

as a matter of fact, why not send all kids over the age of 7 out to do a days work while we are at it.

they could collect that nights tea from the coop with their own wages on the way back from work.

( this is going to be one of those threads again isnt it?)

I posted myself to Japan when I was 3.

Well, I tried. Used all mum's stamps and waited on the doorstep in a large box for the postman, didn't work though.

They used to have to go to work you know! I think they still should. They come into this world expecting to be fed, clothed, housed, etc and what do they do for us? For society? Make 'em work I say!

send them down the mines rhubarb, let them see how streetwise kids earn a crust!

What was the consensus on dear, btw? Fluffy and liberal or piss-off-you-tedious-troll? Just so I can swim with the tide, y'know...

POYTT, new MN acronym

Or it's a SOP - a Seriously Obtuse Poster

(she might be a very nice lady though, so we should give her BOD........ benefit of doubt )

Things need explaining you know, otherwise we're going to take the p*ss... ARGH!!! That really Ps me off about MN sometimes.

I saw some of the other Dear thread but didn't follow it all. I noticed the next day it had been deleted.
