Saw this on the news at breakfast this morning and was ranting at the TV then. Children are resilient creatures who adapt to change way better than adults, the child will make new friends if she is given the chance to go to school to do it, depression at 4, bollox, when you look at what some other 4 year olds cope with without any of this soft lefty there there there shyte, its just bollox!

blood boiling, ranting at screen etc. Off for calming coffee...

seems like the kids parents are using her as a pawn in thier game of "keeping up apperances", they should just let the kid go the school shes at and get on with it, bloody pathetic nonesense :mad:

They should MAKE it go to the school - they have said theres no problem with it. If the brat grows up knowing it gets its own way and can't make new friends at that age how on earth is it going to cope when it gets to the real world and doesnt get the exact job it wants?! Is she going to expect the company to roll over and say "oh you're depressed because you didn't get the job... oh that makes it all different, here you go have the job"???!?!!

Drown the brat and shoot its parents :D

Drown the brat and shoot its parents :D

Yes, that really is the only answer. Can I personally drown the spoilt bastard please.
WTF is this country coming to?
I get the same in my surgery at work, fat sweaty child hangs upside down on the furniture and breaks the lamp after swearing at me and mother says simperingly, "Oh he's such a one, teehee, teehee".
FF's!
