So true Faginsgirl. When you look at the money now being earned by talentless, wittless, ignorant people without a shred of talent, it makes you cringe. Our kids today want to be like these people. There are so many realy talented people out there, working themselves silly every week in clubs, pubs etc, with no recognition. If they went on a reality show and made a fool of themselves they could be "superstars". Don't the kids realise that the real money is being made by the people who are behind the shows and they are being exploited.

Its sad that these kids have been brought up to think this is the right thing to do, to air your dirty laundry in public, sleep with someone on television ie: Big Brother. Who knows in time brothers and sisters will marry and have children never knowing who their real parents are because so many women know have children to different people. There's a girl that comes to a clinic that i do that has 5 children to 4 fathers and she cant even remember the name of the father from the last child, she was drunk, god help the next generation with people like this about. where are family values now.

Live each day to the full because one day it will be your last.

Reminds me of that painting "when did you last see your father" Should be changed to "do you know who your father is?"

They can never be accused of being brain of Britain. That isn't meant to be a generalisation but i wonder what on earth they are thinking when they act the way they do.

That's the problem a lot of the time, they don't think, they act on impulse.

Happy Birthday Daddy .... I love you!

There's a fair amount of trivial nonsense with teens being promiscuous (shocker) etc but there's also a few damaged individuals who would be better advised going to their doctor and requesting counseling.
