I love the quote about 'New Zealands terrible drinking culture'.....

Piss orf - drinking is bloody wonderful but burbon at 10am? Followed by whatever else and at 17?? saying its a national problem is just wet cop out trying to blame society for a small groups shocking abuse and bad parenting. Pathetic

"It's only the first time. We always look after our children..."

Stooopid fucks should be steralised so they can't pollute the general population with more trash.

Looking after them REAL well weren't they.....if it wasn't so bad....it'd almost be funny.

Most of them were 14.

Now if I was a judge/cop I would be doing whoever supplied them with the alcohol and premises to drink it on, Ie their grandmother and giving them a damn good arse kicking as its this "whanu's" "elders" who are meant to teach their kids respect.......

F.F.S.....This isn't my fault.... This isn't your fault.... It's their fault. I worry for my Grandchildren having to 'share' this great country with vermin such as these. When are we going to see politicians with enough guts to take away the handouts. Lets see them survive on their own merits. Remove these degenerates from our society. THIS OUR COUNTRY, we work bloody hard and pay more than our fair share to ensure our families have a decent standard of living and a home to call their own. This behaviour makes a mockery of everything decent. I for one am absolutely sick of hearing about this crap, aren't you. I think we are being taken for mugs........ Whats plan 'B' ????

One of the girls is now expected to lose a leg. But I expect that's OK in the eyes of the 'parents'. After all, "it's only the first time" she's lost a limb.....

We now have second and subsequent generations of kids in NZ who have been/are being brought up by parents who have never been parented adequately and so do not have the knowledge or skill to be able to pass on how it is done.
I don't profess to know the answers but I have six kids aged from 31 to 15. While none of them are perfect, they are all great kids and we are very proud of them all.
I always made a point of getting to know their friends and their friends parents, and needed to know where they were going, who with and what time they would be home.
If you are going to give young teens large quantities of alcohol, you are asking for trouble. Too much attention is paid to "rights" and not enough to "responsibilities".
Plan B? Let me know the details Wasp 27, I'm with you!
Something needs to be done now, before our society and all we value, self -combusts in to oblivion.

I'm very pleased to see that my two sons will have little or no competition for all the best jobs when they grow up.

Keep it up New Zealand - so glad I moved here.
