You'd need to ask Helen directly, or better, someone with a family and a brain.
I know bringing up kids isn't easy (I'm a father of two teenagers) but you CAN do a good job of it (without getting jam in your hair) if you don't support their drug habits (if in fact they develop one) and you smack their bums when they get out of line while they're toddlers. After that you don't have to smack them, they know their boundaries and you can get on with being their mates and supporting them.
I know there's no book on parenting but it doesn't take a genius to doa half decent job. (I'm living proof....)
Good, cheers. So how come, if so many of us agree on the old ways (crime/time etc) why t/f don't our 'leaders' (who we pay) step up to the plate? I see heaps of posts from people here who share these sentiments and we are just a small cross-section of NZ. I bet there are plenty more kiwis with the same mindset who would back stiffer penalties for serious crime, a 'three strikes' policy for petty shit, harsher prisons etc.
I can hear the gurgler now and is that NZ going down it?
I hope not, I love this place but jeeez----zus..........messy.
They call it the silent majority....
The minority vocal tree hugging cardigan wearers get all the air time...
But we're not allowed to smack their bums.
She wasnt bringing up kids....she was raising crims. Useless cow should have been sterilized before breeding.
I was utterly gobsmacked at her more than him. How could she go on telly and be so proud of doing such a shit job at being a mother?? And where were the fathers???
Yes it is entertainment... its all about money, TV3 would have made thousands on that doco.
The system cant be held solely responsable the up bringing of WWW is a direct result of his mums, her up bringing is a result of her parents... its a circle and the answer to breaking it is the golden question.
The system as you call it is decided on from the general NZ people, which are full of 'do gooders' the 'its not his fault stop picking on him' shit.
Starts at day one and goes through kindie, school etc, let the wee shits fall from a swing and hurt them selves its how ya learn, reality/life. The more kids are wraped up in cotton wool the more they wont know what life is about and will stray and head to drugs etc cos they have no idea every action has a reaction.

Well here I have an issue; it's possible the fathers had some semblence of a brain, they all left.
However, if you dip your wick you have a responsibility for the end result should there be one.
I left my missus but I didn't leave my kids and thankfully they can see that and see why. However, my circumstances didn't result in a drug-crazed f*%#wit running amok in the streets.
That woman was/is a breeder of trouble and it looks as though she has a history of it. That's some accountability that should be brought to the fore. There IS blame and I blame HER!
Socks and Jesus boots; there's reason enough for a lengthy jail term. Val Doonican jerkins don't help (another three years if it please Your Honour), a smoking 100E Prefect with a Greenpeace bumper-sticker (another six months), a Desiderata poster (30 days) and finally; that tie-dyed T-shirt has earned you a bloody good tazer-ing while being Rogered with a long baton.
A 'Not Guilty' plea will do you no good.
Stand down.
(Or in some juristictions you can 'Go Down' and get three years off.)
