CAN anybody tell me what sort of society we are living in today?
We have had two preventable teenage deaths, one 16 year old boy fell through a glass skylight of a school roof in Westhoughton, and a 14 year old girl knocked down crossing a motorway with friends near Bury.
The solutions according to the families involved, are supports under each skylight to catch anyone falling through, and higher fences along the motorways. Are these unfortunate people from another planet?
Do they not understand that neither teenager should have been there in the first place? If they had not been there, then neither accident would have occurred.
Whatever happened to the laws of trespass?
