| 522936 | 2007-02-05 22:42:00 | Works for me...at least this time it wasn't the innocent party that died. I have a 10 year old son....will be making sure that he ain't piss-arsing around in high-powered cars in four years time. The PC-brigade will be less than impressed at my methods.....I hope!....but when I get to go to his 21st it'll be all worth while. |

| 522937 | 2007-02-05 23:39:00 | Death is a little permanent for the offence. If we stopped giving RIGHTS to sub 18 year old people and teach them they are RESPONSIBLE for their actions at an early age then I think the whole of NZ would be better off. OTOH If adults do not take responsibility for their actions. Likes of Cave Creek, PainterGate etc then how can we expect the young people live up to a good example that they possibly do not see. I happened to be lucky in that I had a role model. My father was my role model. I had a couple of teachers whom I also tried to emulate. When I was 7-8 I broke a window. The local copper caught me and I was taken home. Dad dealt with me and you can rest assured I did not break another. I am, by no means, perfect, and I made other errors since then. None that would attract a prison term though. I say bring back the stocks for this sort of offence and put the "caregiver" in there with the 14 yr old. |

Today, if the kids get through what they do without killing themselves the consequence of their actions is usually no skin off their noses. Sweep is right, if we did something horrific we would know "all about it" when Dad came home, and it would never happen again. I can't remember running off to the Police, Cyps, whatever if I was smacked, as I knew I deserved it. It's a sad story on one hand, on the other perhaps a wake up call for others. |

| 522941 | 2007-02-06 00:41:00 | Whats wrong with a bit or rage you should have heard talkback on radio live last night at least 99 percent of callers were as raged as i am and rightly so its time they got ******s like this off the roads and taught them a proper lesson society is getting worse cause bugger all is being done about it. As i say he deserved to die and he knew the consequences so its time for some action on educating the young youths of today so as this sort of thing does'nt happen again. I know it will be a mission but you have to start somwhere. |

Perhaps the 14 year old divorced the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/civil union relationship/ and etc At 14 it would be far too late to change the behaviour. When I was 15 my Dad said to me, "Take off your trousers as you are getting a hiding." This was for something I knew for a fact my brother had done. My reply was, "If you want my trousers off then you take them off." He didn't. I can only think that Dad rethought for two reasons. I will leave it over to audience to work out why. Young people need discipline in my opinion. Bringing back corporal punishment in schools may be a good idea. Please note that my father never hit his wife. I never had to go to hospital for anything he did either. I might add that neither did my two siblings. |
