Transgender Children!

Just watching a morning TV show when they started a debate about trans gender children. Apparently the medical professions now recognise this and diagnose it as well. I was very shocked at this as I really think that at 8 years old, a child has not developed as a person enough to be categorised. I really think that children can experiment and be curious but its just to young to say that they were born with the wrong body!

The parent involved in the debate then bought her son on stage who was dressed as a girl, I found it slightly disturbing if I'm honest. The child made what seemed to be a mother prepared speech about being happy etc, I couldn't help feeling pity towards this child and anger at his parents.

I cant believe that people feel that its right to parade their children like this and encourage them to act and dress like the opposite age. When these children get older I support them to make their own decisions and show them selves as an individual, but 8 years old is far to young. In my opinion any mother who encourages their child to follow the road of the opposite sex are severely letting that child down.

Newspapers and Hacking Allegations

Wow, its really dragging itself out isn't it, the enquiry into press intrusion and phone hacking has been ongoing for such a long time I have even forgot when it started!

All the enquiry seems to be about is passing the blame to someone else, one of the most overused phrases of the enquiry seems to be " not too the best of my knowledge"!

Its seems like this hacking was widespread and many celebrities were affected but lets face it, many of them wanted and needed the publicity. Some of these celebrities would be really upset if the media didn't chase them for stories, they love the publicity.

UK Winter Weather

It makes me laugh watching the TV regarding this cold wintry spell the weathers going through at the moment. We do like to panic and worry don't we! I have seen councils having to reassure people that they have plenty of salt for the roads and so on. Its only a short wintry spell, its hardly like we have had an artic winter! British people love to worry about things and secretly enjoy making contingency plans in case the worst happens, lets just get on with it and stop worrying about the what ifs!
