What they need is scaring straight. Show them a WoM mug and tell them they'll be lucky if they even come <em>that</em> close to celebrity. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81451 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 19:08:29 +0000 The All New Jeni B 81451@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I hate to say it, but I agree with you Oxy. Too many kids really believe that they're destined to become a star. They don't know at what, but they know they will be.</p> <p>(I feel so ashamed and dirty now.) </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81421 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 14:01:56 +0000 riesler 81421@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Well put, my dear Ox. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81395 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 09:51:01 +0000 waylandsmithy 81395@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>All politicians are bent, and ultimately just go through your pockets. At least Boris has a bit of charm about him. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81390 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 09:28:18 +0000 Oxbridge 81390@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>The point is, I imagine, that today's yoof-oriented culture actively encourages kids to think they know it all and can just breeze their way to fame and wealth a la X Factor. It probably comes as a shock to many of them to find that after twatting their way through school and leaving with no qualifications that the world really doesn't have much use for them. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81384 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 09:13:14 +0000 riesler 81384@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Hate to say it, but I sort of agree with him... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81376 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 08:27:55 +0000 Scroat 81376@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Can't remember his exact phrase, but if it was entitlement, he was using it in a negative sense. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81373 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 08:05:44 +0000 riesler 81373@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Are you saying that you don't think kids have a high sense of entitlement? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=29046#post-81372 Wed, 10 Aug 2011 07:45:43 +0000 Scroat 81372@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I was half asleep when he was being interviewed on the radio this morning, but he seemed to say something about a generation of kids with a high sense of entitlement or something similar.</p> <p>Has he forgotten the Bullingdon Club already?</p> <p>None of the politicians have come out of this very well. Michael Gove and Harriet Harman had an entertaining spat on Newsnight last night though. </p>
