    Many kids these days need classes in enunciation and sitting up straight.

    When I see this video however, I am inclined to favour immigration.

    Lets face it, we have lost the plot when it comes to child rearing in this country. These two missguided girls are just two amongst an army of lost souls coming out of UK schools today.

    What do we do with the army of lost souls?

    That comment made me laugh....my boys are sick and tired of me banging on about enunciation :rotfl:
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    For a total contrast to these girls see:

    For an amazing story of a single mum and her daughter. Gamu lives in the same town as me and is the same age as my daughter. They are also members of the same church as us. Truely lovely immigrants and a story of a single mum who has really worked hard to bring up her children without 'supports'. It certainly does raise very pertinent questions about how we are bringing up our children.

    Brilliant icon7.gif Then again at the other end of the of the spectrum they turn out things like this.
    The difference is this one plays at coming across as thick as pig sh*t but is actually intelligent.
    I'm not cynical I'm realistic :p

    As you know them I hope you don't mind me asking. Is it true the authorities are trying to deport Gamu and her family? I think I've heard that recently.

    I thought that was brilliant, I saw it on the night. yeah, but no, but ....

    Two fat thick birds, who can't sing, are rude ... and then slap each other about.

    Clearly part of the problem is that they've been "supported" - so nobody's ever told them they're thick, annoying, rude, can't sing and are common before.

    The girl that did the slapping,had her jugs out in a double page spread in 'The Sport' the following week.
    Not nice to look at,but a few quid must have been made,incidentally i dont buy the sport,it was left on the mess room table in work.;)

    Immigration does not necessarily supply intelligent, hard working and well mannered people - go to some council estates in Hackney, north Kensington and Peckham at 11pm and you'll soon see that for yourself. You are a total cretin and what you are preaching is anti-white racism.

    I also don't understand why posting a video of two white female morons is supposed to prove anything. What would you say if I posted a video of some black kids from a London council estate flashing guns and smoking crack? You would be whining and wailing like a wounded pig.

    Yes.

    I was on a bus going through Tooting the other day, which (sorry to say) is now like a Third World area (used to be quite nice a decade or so ago). Three very large Romany women in traditional dress and with gold teeth, etc, trailing kids, got on the bus, were screaming and shouting at each other, and put on a radio with very loud (traditional) music. I defy anyone to say that people such as this can in any way be useful members of British society, who will not take anything from hard-working taxpayers.

    How on Earth did we come to such a situation?
