SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - Basil (24th Jul 2025 - 22:48:10) Once again (this happened a week ago as well), to the kid on Newtown Road that is continually swearing and being loud, please tell your kid to keep the noise down, it is 23:00 for crying out loud! It’s so disrespectful for the neighbourhood community, do you have any respect!? Basil

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - D (28th Jul 2025 - 14:24:39) When I swore as a child I received a slap across the mouth to stop me doing it again. But the loony left got in and told us it is wrong to bring children up in a disciplined way so they knew what is and is not acceptable. Now we have record child mental illness.

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - Joe (28th Jul 2025 - 15:43:56) Unfortunately the bad example is set by their parents and other adults - every time I visit a pub which is not an upmarket one I hear loud swearing going on from both men and women, it is sometimes in front of children too if it is a dining pub. Unfortunately it seems to be normal behaviour these days.

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - paul (28th Jul 2025 - 16:27:50) Hi , Manners and politeness, sadly has been lost in British society, now and for future generations. Bad or foul language to others, I believe it starts from poor parenting. Lack of education, and also what is right, or wrong, in life. Young or older people, in previous generations, behaved mainly in a good manner. The joy of being civil to one another, and the wonder in their lives to enjoy. It is not to late hopefully to change some of us, and like the ways where we live.

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - C (28th Jul 2025 - 16:41:12) Have to say I was a bit shocked when I heard at least three people (men) drop the C bomb in quick succession at The Links last week. I’m not saying I don’t ever swear but I’m mindful of not doing it loudly in public and certainly would be really careful in front of children.

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - D (28th Jul 2025 - 17:08:44) Those parents were also raised not knowing what society expects in terms of social behaviour also. Don't agree that swearing is the sole preserve of the working class.

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - paulSquare (29th Jul 2025 - 20:33:14) Hi, Don't see in this thread the comment "sole preserve of working class" . All society use profanity, and to express themselves. Using the language to offend to others, is when it is wrong. Lets live in harmony.

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - D (29th Jul 2025 - 20:51:49) Paul square, "when I visit a pub which is not an upmarket one".

Re: SWEARING ON NEWTOWN ROAD - paulSquare (29th Jul 2025 - 21:27:39) Hi, Whichever way one spin's it, offensive language is hurtful, to who ever receives it. We as a society, should be more intelligent in our lives to others today.
