I JUST don't understand all these youngsters roaming the streets and saying they have nothing to do and nowhere to go.
When I was their age we had no computer games or television.
What I did have was hours of homework every night and even more at weekends. There was very little time to socialise. The only activities were church-based.
Is it any wonder that kids today leave school unable to read, write or do simple arithmetic?
