Letter to the editor - I've had enough

The Editor,
Bay Times,
4th July 2017,
Like so many I have had enough, and we need to change the way we treat people especially our children.
To read in the paper in these last few days about 2 little helpless babies dying because of rotten, or brutal behaviour by those who are supposed to love and protect them is a shameful indictment on our society that we allow it to happen. To find that damage was done to a lot of properties in Mount Maunganui by out of control young people is disgraceful. Also, to find young people riding motor bikes and cars in a noisy disruptive way is also unacceptable. Until we hold these unfortunates, and their parents to account ,who are responsible for having these imbeciles; or our babies killed or neglected by people who are no better than ignorant thugs and should be on trial as has happened this week.
It is time to get radical, by stopping them having babies as the babies mean money or any hint of poor behaviour the benefit should be stopped and or, immediately only grocery vouchers which can only be spent on food, AND not alcohol, cigarettes, lotto.
