Anti Social Behaviour

Do ASBO's work?

How do other countries deal with anti social behaviour?

Why is the UK failing it's citizens?

Following the recent sad story here in the UK of a mother and her family tormented for 10 years by yobs, who killed herself and her disabled daughter because she could no-longer cope.........why did no-one offer her the help she screamed out for?

What do you think would work and why?

The problem is , Miss take that many people are wrapped up in their own problems. The time of the friendly neighbour has long gone when people would help out with no thinking of what they can get out of it. The feeling today is " I'm alright Jack, too bad for you..." Here in france it is the same, we hear of child abuse, gangs doing as they want and giving hell to the people around them. If the decent folk were to realise that they are stronger and could rid their neighbourhood of these "people" then things might get better. It is not a question of "telling" to the cops but as long as honest citizens do nothing then these groups are drunk with their so-called power and continue to rule as they so wish.I heard a story out of the Bradford area where a young Pakistani girl was burnt to death in the street by her family cos she refused to knuckle down to the families rules. She wanted to be a modern girl , be with her friends , white or other and enjoy life. No-one in the street lifted a finger to save her. Here in france it is getting to be the same for the girls in the suburbs called difficult and are treated as sluts if they even show an interest in a boy. At times even if they are seen in their company!!

The so called "Bleeding Hearts " do not help with their: " well it is the problem of the governement! no jobs, no hope". People play on this and use it as an excuse. Lots of parents are to blame as well in the type of upbringing they have given to their children. How can you expect a child to respect others if he or she sees their parents do not intervene to stop them or explain. Or they see them act in such a way towards society. They of course will follow their parents lead and accept it as normal. People can earn easy cash from drug peddling or stealing, so why should they work? Those who do in their community are treated as fools. This subject is a modern day problem and can only be resolved at the base-line, the parents and the education they give.
