Get YouTube without the ads.

Really? That is your response to what is essentially a male/war/destroy value, versus a female/grow/ nurture value?

When will they ever learn...

I can't watch the ad in my country.

Sad panda.

There was a time when police were respected and teachers had no fear , there was even a time when kids played in the streets all day and even had fun

I remember that time.

There were lots of kids in our street, so it was just a case of "Be home for dinner".

Helicopter parents might have existed, but I never knew any.

i was one of those kids , out in the morning home at night , cut grazed and bruised but that was kids enjoying themselves , they were really different times

"i was one of those kids , out in the morning home at night , cut grazed and bruised but that was kids enjoying themselves , they were really different times"

Me too: the 1950s.

i had my 3 wheeler , my water pistol , I was armed to the teeth even in those days and a group of us just went and went .

When I was 5 I decided to visit my Nan who live 3 or 4 miles away and with my 3 wheeler I got onto the road stopped at the traffic lights did hand signals and of course eventually a policeman (you remember them?) asked me where I was going (a 30 ton Fodden behind me) "Off to see Nan THIR!"

PS - The AA and RAC saluted you .................

Didn't have any Nans but spent my time out in the fields playing cowboys and 'native Americans', camping, lighting fires , racing snails, riding my bike and doing lots of things I didn't know were 'wrong' until I reached adulthood..
