Flag-stealing teen to lead Anzac Day parade. :
"A court ordered the 17-year-old to apologise to the Brighton Le Sands RSL for his actions on the night of the Cronulla riots.
He has now been asked to carry the national flag in Sydney's Anzac Day march."
It is about respect and learning that other people have rights and that you cannot just do as you please when you are living in a society. I really hope this works because a lot of kids don't seem to have boundaries and are divorced from socialisation. This is not their fault. You learn about other people in a family and group setting. I was amazed in the Mall yesterday when later in the day kids rolled in. Two had spray cans with those hooters attached which are really loud in the Mall. They thought it was hilarious. Then other kids rolled up with water pistols to get each other around the Mall. I am talking about older teenagers. Another group arrived with toys as well and as older teenagers I found their behaviour hard to explain.It wasn't aggressive but it was age inappropriate and very odd to use the shopping mall as a play ground. As adults we need to realign some behaviours. Around here we have a service on Anzac Day for the young people and it works really well.
