    They should take her BMW from her and crush it - and a good solid smack in the side of the head probably wouldn't go astray either.

    Her parents could probably do with a dose of the same.
    ......and then if that does not resolve the issue look for medical conditions.

    Fixed it for you....


    mind you I would personally prefer that she be put in her car and knocked about by something with the same mass ratio as her car had to the push bike... preferably several of them. Id love to drive for them, put her in say an open cut mine and give me a haul pack, hell make it interesting. wet the tracks down too...

    I would like to know what her parents did about her attitude, if anything. Working at a hospice for children with terminal diseases would be attitude changing. And that's just for the parents. Bob

    You havn't heard of patenting? We've put perpetual motion patents in for our second child - he's patent pending

    This has nothing to do with social skills- it's about respect. My parents disciplined me properly as a child - consequently I have a social disorder too, called 'respect for others'.

    16 years as a youth leader tells me that without proper discipline as a child an adult cannot discipline themselves.

    I will agree to disagree with you and respect your opinion, and those of others who may concur with you.

    I was offering my objective professional opinion, and not a subjective one. A "smack" in the head is a bit extreme and shows highly emotional thinking, which achieves nothing, except perhaps a criminal conviction for the person so doing.

    Such thinking renders a person just as bad as the offender and is tantamount to the "Lynch mob" mentality that belongs in the past, with the same type of people who refer to gay folk as "poofters", retarded people as "spacks" and aboriginals as lazy and bludgers and "black" ********. It is redundant and offensive thinking. It is far worse for anyone in a youth leading or law enforcement role to have this point of view for the job they do.

    You may be surprised at what my personal opinions are on this matter. I am not a yuppy but an experienced professional and the disorder is genuine and treatable if caught early. The parents are often not to blame. The person is often a victim of the culture in which they live.

    Feel free to flame me if you wish, I find it interesting and will be taking notes on various points of view (from a psychological perspective). I now have a subject to write my thesis on

    You don't belong to the same golf club as her parents, do you, Bob

    I would suggest that the court confiscate her BMW and gift it to the cyclist Mr Porra as a token of her regret,she would have to continue to make all and any payments to a finance coy.if money is owning on it,the hip pocket nerve is a great teacher

    That's called correct parenting, and not dragging a child up. All patents pending.
