Both you and Stuartbe seem to have assumed that i am sympathetic to the boy's case.... a boy who raped a 9 yr old girl..... and showed no remorse...... all i did was ask a couple of open ended questions without condemning his actions or agreeing with his punishment.


However, i have your opinions and that was all i was after. So thank you.

I was not having a go at you or your views and I am sure that Kronas was not either.

I was expressing a veiw that this sort of incident is usualy brushed under the carpet or dismised as (kids will be kids)

What I was trying to say is that the victim is usualy overlooked while the criminal is given sympathy..

Why in this country do we have 1-2 organisations to look after the victim and hundreds to look after the criminal ???

I do see your point that it is a bit sad that a someone so young should be registered as a sex ofender - but what if he does it again - can we take the risk ????

My 15 year old son gets annoyed with me because I won't let him sit in front of the DTV with the remote late at night.However I know that there are some dubious shows being aired on a few channels(no we don't subscribe to the Pay per view stuff).These type of shows were NEVER shown before and what is shown is a lot more raunchy than say 10 years ago.

Now how many parents allow their darlings a tv in their room?How many parents go to bed before their kids?How many 11 year old are watching some of these programmes without parental approval.How many are watching WITH parental approval?

Incog.pondering on Mary Whitehouse and her clean up TV campaign.Was she right after all?

It is probably quite dangerous allowing kids & teenagers to watch telly after 10pm on their own, especially if you have sky as there are all sorts of programmes are on. Little kids have TVS & computers with the internet in their rooms and some parents probably have no idea what they are watching/seeing

What the hell gave an 11 year old the idea to rape another little girl? The world in turning into a very sick place in some ways

it is acceptable for him to be on there, why should he be treated diffarently, he has still knowingly commited the act............

no i never meant to imply you are sympathetic, it was a general comment people seem to evaluate an action because of age that is wrong IMO if you understand what you have done is a crime before you did it, you should be punished.

on a case by case basis, i would say there is nothing wrong with 'teens' having there own televisions or being able to watch sky or such related platforms, it would be on the notion of individual responsability.

i have never been restricted on what content i watch on television, it has not harmed me at all, you cannot deny a young person sexual content viewing they most likely know about it already anyway.............

BUT as i said, this would be dependant, on a case by case basis.
