I don’t know if that was enshrined in law though. If it was he’s in big bother. Yet 16yr old can vote in Scottish elections. The question at what age is a person a fully fledged adult?

Forrest Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 13 hours ago, Jambo_Gaz said: An alleged beast is an alleged beast and should be treated as an alleged beast even if they have mental health issues. The "evidence" that people have seen certainly seems to point that way in this case, but I think you need to be very careful about that sentence. Anybody can allege anything about anybody, and if it's done in a malicious manner with no factual evidence, then it can ruin someone's life. To pick just one example, look at Cliff Richard. As it happens, he did well financially out of it at the end of the day, but he must have been absolutely raging when it happened / the way it happened.

I mean to me it's utterly daft, but teenagers aren't known for their thinking. It's different times to even when I was younger. I think there's a combination of, not thinking through the future consequences because social media is still relatively knew (like all these posts on twitter from 10 years ago being dragged up that folk at the time would have assumed disappeared into the ether) and a completely different attitude to the concept of being so public.

Americans have freedom of speech, we don't. You don't want free speech in case minority groups are offended I get it. Use of the term "vile abuse" is totally subjective when we live in a society that has zero tolerance of even mild depictions or terms. It Ain't Half Hot Mum banned from television because it shows Indians as servants or something. That to you and other far left is vile abuse.

I agree however the parents are directly responsible for raising and protecting their child.

mscjambo Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Growing up now kids are constantly putting themselves out there most of time unknowingly in a sexual way. They see these influencers on Instagram and women on love Island and look at their social media and think its the way to go. Working in a school I'm horrified by some experiences I hear of I terms of young kids online. We can argue the merits of them being online, on these platforms until the cows come home. But the bottom line is that at 15 she is a child. She might look older but in reality she's a child. Chances are she's not the first girl that he's had such conversations with. She may not look 15, but perhaps he should have checked how old she was before he proceeded. He deserves all he gets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get how people can see a child posting images of themselves online and NOT ask questions of their parents. I disagree. It is absolutely Griffith's fault. He is an adult and has personal responsibility for not engaging with children in a predatory or exploitative way. I've got a daughter. I hope that I'm helping her to grow up with a decent set of values. But children are individuals and capable of their own decisions and actions. But there is a responsibility on the adult community not to take advantage or act in an immoral fashion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get how people can see a child posting images of themselves online and NOT ask questions of their parents. I get your anger, but I don't think it's just accepted by anyone. We don't really know how her parents have reacted. They could be devastated. As other's have mentioned, they probably didn't know what she was up to. Aside from checking her devices, what can they do? Teenagers will very rarely open up to their parents about who they are chatting with. It's hard but that's just life. Did you always tell your parents where you were going and what you were up to at all times when you were 15/16? I definitely didn't and that was in the days before you had a mobile and they could check where you were. I certainly wouldn't barge into my daughters room at random times to check what she was up to. All I can do is put my faith in her not to do things like this and try to educate her the best we can in what is right and what is wrong. Hopefully she takes heed of the advice, but a lot of girls wont. As an adult, Leigh Griffiths should know better. Even if she is sixteen, the fact that he continues to speak to her is borderline. Children need to be protected by adults, not preyed on by them, which appears to be the case here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
