So, walking through town today with my Starbucks Frappucino (awesome ) and Im surrounded by women (if you can call them that) greasy hair so tight it gives them a face lift, what looks like a shell suit (remember them in the 80's??? I had one haha) brown teeth, black circles under their eyes (hummm drug related???) a fag hanging out of their mouths, swearing - F'ing and blinding to a line of kids behind her, pushing a pram that is filthy. The poor kids looked like they needed new clothes, one of them was scratching (poor child has lice) the baby was screaming (made my heart flutter). And this is the worst part, one child asked if she could have a drink, and the mother replied- "No! I need my money for fags"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its BOILING over here today, poor baby has no hat on to protect from the sun....


I mean fair enough if you are finding it hard financially, but stop buying fags if you cant afford to feed your poor children- no offence to anyone that smokes, Ive only just given up- but dont do it around babies who have no choice!

ERRRRRRRRRRRRRR this is a classic example of a 'dumbed down' Britain- some women try for years to have kids- when they know they will love and cherish every silly thing they do. Just hate it

sorry but i had to rant

Know exactly where you are coming from...town I live in is like that.....my heart goes out to the kids traipsing along behind mothers like that. What chance do they have?

no chance in hell- i just wanted to kidnap them and give them a bath and a hug!

Can't understand it......How can people live like that?? It's beyond me....surely they would want better for their kids? Maybe their parents were the same? Who knows!!!

I've seen this too many times! It makes me sick that these people have babies just because they shagged some bloke and got knocked up, some people just don't deserve kids at all!

There should be some kind of class, if you fail, you get sterilised or something haha

I hate seeing kids being shouted at xxx

i hate seeing things like that too

I hate people like that.

One of my best friends had her daughter when she was 17 to an absolute waste of space pot head who beat her up etc when they moved in their house it was an absolute mess 9 inch nails left on the coffee table, katelin left to play with lighters (first time i saw her she wasn't even a year old) in a walker that my friends dad had took out of someone's rubbish (he is a bin man) they used to dump her in the walker which had string tied to the front and drag her across the floor but pull it so hard i thought the poor thing was going to get whiplash. The house stunk had no carpet and they sat there smoking around her. We walked to the shop and the pram stunk the material was matted with dirt poor katelin had what looked like crusty dirty and food that had been there way longer than it should stuck to her face. I wanted to slap my friend and tell her to open her eyes and see what she was doing but the other bit of me knows it was never my place.

Now her and katelins dad have split up for now atleast, e go to town shopping every friday and she is a lot cleaner than usual but does nothing but shout at katelin for nothing like if she is walking to slow or looking at something in a shop. I knw i shouldn't but i have to say i do step in and say leave her alone and you don't ave to shout at her. She's only 3 shouting and wearing at her isn't going to make a difference it's only going to make her cry which it does ALOT and she always ends up running to me saying "please make her stop shouting at me" it breaks my heart because she really is such a well behaved little girl just like every other kid on the planet you just need a bit of patience with her.

My friend is typical council estate grot most of the time and i feel mean saying it but it's true. It annoys me when people have kids and put themselves first before there child.

Oh and she still smells lol

Ditto....you can see the hurt it causes them just as much as taking a belt to them would do!!

Yes Kimmer......sounds a good idea........
