We always here "If only the parents....etc. Well I think parents are playing a huge part In the problems we have today with our "unruly" kids. Why do I hear youngster's of 12 and 13yr old outside my home at 11.30pm? Where are the parents? They have to start action at home to curb problems. In street's In all the towns and cities, they have to care. The kids aren't born bad. They are children, they need guidance, support and security through sufficient discipline and rules to know the difference between right and wrong and to have good manners instilled In them. For the ones with attention disorder's aswell. don't wash your hands of them, help them to grow and become confident young adults. If "they" stopped being lazy Cathy, they would probably see their mistake.

Many many people stopped shopping there as they were harrassed by the "children" spat at, jeered at, The takings in the shop dropped by over 40% The shop owner tried many things...talking to the "children" calling the police, nothing worked all were met with the same jeer.There is a Youth run club in the village, scouts, guides, football, tennis,baseball, tennis,...however "nothing, nowwhere for us to go" said the "children" what to do you ? the shop owner eventually closed. The result being that now the vilage has one shop less....I am not sure if one of the "buzzers" had been in use it would have helped..but if it were my livlehood I would have tried everything as the shopkeeper did....As has been said where are the parents ? when they were approached...did they care ...did they heck...who were the first to shout when the shop closed down ??? why the parents themselves. I know what I would have done if I had had the choice.(although perhaps I would play classical music which is being tried by our one remaining shop!!)

Dealing with children who suffer from ADD and ADHD is work. Long, hard frustrating work. Turning on a switch that emits and uncomfortable but inaudible sound can not be a solution. Children with ADD and ADHD usually suffer at the hands of other children because they are different. Usually they are smarter and they have a tendency to day dream. They get picked on a lot. Using something like this to calm them down, and exposing others to it, can only make their lives harder as other children punish them for their discomfort.<br>Jude<br>http://journals.aol.com/jmorancoyle/MyWayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
