Are they all after Asbos?

So the scouts do a survey and lo and behold it finds a majority of children and youth are respectful of teachers and the local populace. Infact it seems that most young people are nice and mature youngsters!

Community Spirit:
70% feel adults are overtly critical of them
Community spirit does not seem to be too high
Members of youth clubs are twice as likely to be community minded



School and Education:
90% feel pressure from parents to achieve in school
81% respect their teachers
87% are eager to achieve good grades
81% want to go to University



Family Unit:
95% feel their parents want the best for them
25% feel their parents don’t really listen to them


The report involved quantitative and qualitative research of 1,004 13 – 18 year olds.

now i know 1004 is a fairly low number, but it shows what i have always said, the minority is always spoiling it for the majority.

Now if only we could encourage the govertment to notice this and maybe they could work at getting a comunity spirt back, may be first we had better rebuild the comunity first though?
