So, I was reading news and came across articles on Save The Children initiative to work with children from poor UK families first on Guardian and then on Telegraph website. One point Telegraph article made was -
'By the end of his childhood, a youngster is considerably more likely to have a television in his bedroom than a father living at home.'
What is your take on this ? You think the situation is this or going to get this bad ? Or is it not a cause of concern ?  |

My children didn't have tv's in their rooms as I couldn't afford them. My son has one in his room now but he bought it and pays towards the virgin connection but rarely watches it.
What concerns me is what children will watch on tv as I am not sure that there is a way of blocking certain types of programmes like one can with computer access |

My son is much better off to have a tv in his room than his useless alcoholic father!
Why in this age of same sex couples etc do people still go on about a child needing both parents! My son has everything he needs and one day if he wants to go find his father then fine. But he will realise that mum has given him everything and he has had a good upbringing |

It is the sad part of society today that encourages single parent families. It is also a responsibility of adults that if you have children you raise them in a proper manner, maintain them etc. Are single parents not showing their children that you raise children on your own for whatever reason and relationships do not exist? Maybe in years to come there will be nothing but a swinging society totally NSA. |

I hate that society makes people think you have to have a relationship to be anything in life. You have to be loved to be happy. Then people get in relationships just for the sake of it and are scared to leave cos of not feeling loved even tho that relationship is destructive!
If you can love yourself then you can be truely happy, finding someone else to love will then be easier and you will take more time to find the right person.

Children deserve the love of both parents and men should have the acumen to take responsibility. |

"him" had four fathers, 1,Natural, she divorced him while he was abroad. 2, He was killed in a RTA, 3, She divorced him, 4, she divorced him. She died on her own. Have kids only if you can afford them, take care of them and bring them up with some respect.
Too many queing for Jeremy Kyle. |
