    Given that any 'junior' can chat to his mates on facebook, bibo or MSN and use and be subject to whatever language is thrown their way, it seems ludicrious to expect this forum not to, within reason, at least reflect the broad range of humanity in all its guises (even including Antisocial ). Equally you could argue that no child aged under 16 should be taken to a major sporting event - a man united vs liverpool game includes incredibly 'bad taste' and the 'odd' swear word from the supporters for example

    I think everyone just needs to check that they haven't completely had sense of humour by-passes.
    Stolly just hit the nail on the head.


    Yes there will be children reading this forum but we shouldnt be cocooning them from what real life is really like.

    I dont know what everyones experiences of high school was, but i for one know it was a bloody cruel place to be at times!!! bullying, bad launguage, sexual things, etc etc....everything gets talked about, said and done.....

    Ok that doesnt mean here on the forum people should be allowed to say what ever they will, and i suppose you could say that what ever has been said could influence them........but this is the real world isnt it....the big wide world isnt a nice place and some people just seem to be trying to make it a nice lovely, cuddly place....im going to have to come back to this when i think of what the point is that im trying to say.


    So yes...maybe what has been said could offend people, but this is only the top of the iceburg with the internet and the world as a whole that people see, read and do.


    But for a posative point that has come from this, it has made me think alot more before i post for what im saying incase it does upset anybody....and i think 99% of everyone on here has taken it all on board as well.
