Re: My heart goes out
MH is right..Gas and glue sniffing is, and has always been rife amongst the kids here in the UAE. It's easy available at any corner shop and doesnt have age restrictions like the UK.
I caught my son who is now 22 yrs old but lived here from being 10 years old, inhaling airfreshener for gods sake, when he lived here..most of the kids were doing it. Kids from the British school etc. They still have a place on the corniche were they go every weekend with stolen booze from their parents drinks cabinets or 1 of the older ones goes to a Liquor store and buys it for them..this store NEVER asks for any liecence or ID.
Theres also an apartment here in Khaladia that gets rented by the hour to teens having weekend parties, with gas, glue and alcohol.
The new thing doing the rounds is ''getting the girls drunk, lifting up thier skirts or wait until they are getting down to the nitty gritty with some local boy , then they sneak in and take photo's and distribute them all to everyones mobiles.
Like MH I have raised 2 Teenagers here, and seen what goes on...It's not good.

one thing i have noticed though is that a lot of the time these kids really do listen to the older people when they tell them that theyre crossing the line and to cut the shit... have been in that situation where ive stepped in to stop a fight etc or actually grabbed some little prick by the back of the shirt, marched him outside and told him to f**k off home... and dont exactly look my age haha...
so i guess some things change and some dont...

Re: My heart goes out
and btw this IS NOT me taking the piss because i feel for this boy thats died its very sad but i hate it when editors dont pick up on things like this... why would a quote like this be included in such a story? muppet...
“[He] was the life of all the parties and there are no words to describe how much we are all going to miss him.”
