HIM, can you please do the decent thing and let this thread be about JJ has just become a proud grandparent?

 

[anon x]

what would?

well you seem to think that childhood ends at 18 and hence consider that jj's daughter is a child whereas if she lived a few miles away,she would be an adult(legally).if this was the case would you be less concerned about her "life chances".

Well said. I think i'll shut up now too.

And I want you not to reply. How's that?

no, seriously, it does.

and hence consider that jj's daughter is a child whereas if she lived a few miles away,she would be an adult(legally).if this was the case would you be less concerned about her "life chances".

no, that doesn't necessarily follow.

right, y'see, i thought you wanted to take issue with my saying that unnecessarily having a child when you're an teenager might make life - in, both, the short term and long term - more difficult.

I would suggest that having a child at ANY age makes life - in both the short term and long term more difficult.Just think it is up to the persons having that child at what age they have it and not you HIM.

HIM must reckon himself something of an expert on the subject of children, which is odd. And you should ask him about antidepressants sometime.

this little guy agrees with you.

why's that, then?

 

[TWO ICY COLD HANDS]

this little guy agrees with you.

He was 13 years old and still at school so it is a bit different.There is a legal age of consent for a reason,this lad had not reached that age,JJ's daughter has,that is the difference.
Why do you have to be so moral and negative about this?,it has nothing to do with you.
If you wish to congratulate JJ and his family then please do so but if not then perhaps your views would be better aired on another thread(or another forum).

it's really not that different, is it?

i'm testing your reaction to extreme negative feedback.

I too ''appreciate'' HIM's contribution to this thread.
In what was a celebration of my grandkids birth, as usual, HIM manages to hijack the thread.
Some members on here have been banned for abusive words..... but who contribute a lot to the forums. HIM posts and posts and posts but has said NOTHING of any value. Ever.
The twat very very vary rarely starts a thread (out of over 7000 + posts) but is more than happy to inject negative comments on lots of posts. Sad f***. Clearly he has f*** all intelligent worth saying.
HIM, maybe, sometimes, you should go by the rule, if you have nothing positive to say, then say f*** ALL

Thanks Musley
And yes, it will get you everywhere

Also thanks to Two Icy Cold Hands and southern bootleggers for their words of support too.

I'm asking the mods to close this thread now, seeing as one sad individual has spoiled it. I have no problem with anyone having a pop at me, I can handle it, but this thread wasn't about me, but was turned into a personal crusade by a troll.
