Grooming gangs. Where were the parents?

Post by Dejavu » Wed May 30, 2018 3:54 pm

Serious question. They are always angry after the event and blaming everything but their own inadequate parenting, but didn't the fact that "Patel's Kebab Shop" (generic name) was responsible for feeding their children not set any alarm bells ringing?
The actions of these gangs are despicable, let me make that crystal clear but parents who allow their children to run amok and not question their activities should be looked at and if applicable charged with neglect.
Also that absolute cock womble Tommy Robinson will be to blame if the trial in question collapses.

From reading the Rochdale book it seems a typical scenario was there were no parents. Kids in care or estranged from the parents. Or still at home but impossible to control.

Regardless of where the children come from and their backgrounds there is no excuse for an adult to take advantage of them.

Taking your original posts a bit further what about the parents of the actresses that Harvey Weinstein alledgely abused and took advantage of?

Hold on guys, we're in danger of blaming the victims here. It doesn't matter where the parents were, it shouldn't have happened.

On a lighter note when I read the headline I thought it meant the parents of the gangs - oops!

Where were Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman's parents?

Where was James Bulger's Mum?

Where were Sarah Payne's parents?

Where were the parents of all the kids murdered by Brady and Hindley?

What the **** does it matter where the parents were? You can't control what your children do at all times, I went out and about exploring all over with my friends when I was a kid, would it be my Mum's fault if someone molested me?

Absolutely spot on

Not every household has the perfect 2.4 set up and even the most disfunctional family doesn't deserve to have their kids molested.

There's a world of difference to kids being suddenly abducted, to kids hanging around takeaways etc every night with adult men, and coming home at all hours off their heads on drugs/booze.

Exactly right, of course no one deserves to have their children molested. Some children deserve far better parents than they are unfortunate enough to be born in to as well, unfortunately.

The example of murdered children isn’t great. These were one of instances of children being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The grooming issues are prolonged periods, perhaps years of kids being ‘in the wrong place’.

In some instances, the OP’s point is probably one that shouldn’t just be dismissed.

Right but who tells their parents what they are up to? Or who's honest about it. Being used for sex by a predator will bring a huge amount of shame on someone so young and there's no way they would tell anyone. These men put so much fear into them.

Good parents will endeavour to make it their business to know where their kids are and what they are up to.

I'd like to think if my 13 year old daughter was staying out till all hours and coming home off her head on drugs/booze I'd suspect something was wrong.

There is a saying “but for the grace of god”. There are people on here pontificating saying I would know what my child was doing at night, yes that’s true as they like me would probably have had a stable upbringing. The reality is many of these girls hadn’t, many were from care whose parents had been in care they were many totally dysfunctional families, these girls wanted love and affection and were taken advantage of, there abusers knew this do you think they would have done the same if they had said their father was an ex para No child chooses to be a prostitute they are led into it by scumbags

As a community they've generally ignored any potential warning signs.

Plus if Muslim woman stands up to their husband it isn't always going to end well.
You're talking about a culture that partakes in honour killings.

Paedophiles of whatever gender (yes their are women) culture, religion or background seek out the vulnerable.

Catholic Priests were trusted by parents.
Fathers and Uncles who abuse there neices /nephews/sons/daughters use intimidation and a quiet family home when no-one is about.
Children at bording schools are abused by people with great authority who historically were not challenged.

In the case of grooming gangs they just seek out the most vulnerable and lure children in, and then find a way to keep them trapped.

You're perfect though Geoff.

Every other post of mine contains at least one grammatical error or mistake with punctuation.

And as I predicted it was very easy to find a mistake in my posts.

From memory I think they're was a genuine mistake rather than me trying to be humorous and it wasn't an auto-correct alteration, so thank you for highlighting it for me.

3 of the Rochdale gang have lost their British citizenship and efforts will now be made to deport them, pending any appeals they make about right to family life in the UK where their own kids are etc.

They'll probably get some more legal aid to help fight deportation.

Mate, this is a symptom of the class divide. Manboobs puts the blame solely on Muslim paedophile gangs but without the **** parents who breed feral kids these animals would have nothing to pray on.
Let me put it another way bud, succinctly... It's the human condition.

Of course they'll get legal aid if they can't afford it. As they should. Just because they're **** doesn't mean they have fewer rights to legal representation than the rest of us.

That pretty much sums up how their operate. Regarding the grooming gangs the kids (well some) would have come from broken families or parents with drink & drug problems, in no way must be stressed I'm I condoning the groomers but just merely understanding the profile of the targets, anybody else wouldn't probably be victims it's the circumstances of the vunerable that's facilitated the evil deeds.

I think the race issue is being missed off this. These men deliberately targetted white and Sikh girls because of their own belief systems.
