Banged the nail right on the head ...

The problem with many children these days is that they suffer from neglectful parenting. With that said, however, a decent individual should never blame his or her upbringing on what type of person he or she becomes. So, I too, cannot STAND the bratty monsters that trawl the streets these days.

Many (not all! There need to be more Kay-Ann, Jordan and PCB's around) teenagers irk me the most ... they get on the train, drink WHISKEY straight from a bottle, swear, cuss, spit and make fools of themselves. They are inarticulate, indolent, and have no desire to make a positive contribution to society. This is the generation to whom we are leaving the planet? What a depressing thought....

I am not personally an advocate of being Child Free. I've never been particularly broody either. As for having children? I entertain the possibility of having children as being something that I might like to do. But, I'd much rather be Child Free than being an irresponsible parent.

Another thing ... two reptile lovers being CF advocates ... is there a connection or is that pure coincidence??
