Is he talking with a common accent and wiping his nose with the back of his hand - if so, I'd ring nhs direct.

Has anything rubbed off on him? I mean like orange dust from the wotsits the boy was having for breakfast, or crumbs from a sausage roll or anything? If so, I would take him to a decontamination chamber. There is bound to be one near you, look in the yellow pages.

Did this happen at school? I'd complain to ofsted, if I were you. This is outrageous.

But on the other hand if you send him to a state school what do you expect? You have to take spme responsibility here.

by working class do you mean he comes from a family where somebody works, in which case thank your luck stars it's not as bad as it might have been

The school probably encouraged him to do it - they're only interested in upping their SATS scores.

good for boosting his natural immunity though
it's excellent practice to allow them to be in contact with dirty things like dogs and cow manure and filthy peasants

It was in the park, the boy was at the bottom of the slide. Or so it seemed, he was probably begging for money or looking at which car to joyride. Anyway i took my eyes off my son for a second and they brushed passed each other.

From now on the will only be allowed in private parks.
