If you mean, "does anyone sympathise for the youth of today and how they are demonised as being somehow worse than we were when young, by a combination of stereotyping, lazy journalism and daily wail-eque rants" then yes I do rather feel sorry for them.

If however "fell sorry for the yoot" is some sort if urban lingo, then I'm afraid I have no idea what you are on about chap.

Those who criticise the current generation forget who raised it

Need to expand on your post OP. Youth in general or one in particular.

Ben makes a good point though...

No I don't feel sorry for them. Nor do I despise them.
I was yoot once!
I quite like them.

As night follows day, every generation thinks the one following it is going to hell in a handcart. Funnily enough, they're always wrong.

Very funny.

When I was a teenager there were three million unemployed.
There was controversy about exams.
The government were messing things up.
The media demonised us and told us we had no hope.

Does any of this sound familiar?

This was over 20 years ago by the way. It's a ritual.

If today's youth is the topic....

..........then I'm well impressed with my kids' peer group, but they are all fairly industrious, motivated, and well behaved.

..........I've always been less than impressed with the significant minority who break into your car, mug your granny, trade in illegal harmful substances, involve themselves in gang warfare, etc etc etc, or even the mobs of unruly kids who just generally congregate on numerous street corners and depress the quality of life for everyone for want of robust correction. But there again many bankers and many politicians have been depressing every ones quality of life aswell!!!!

Sorry all

The original text of my thread was lost when the mods deleted my other post with same title. Why were there 2? Hamster problems I suspect

Whilst an interesting set of responses. It's not where i was going at all

As you were

Thanks
