AVENGER from Lochgelly is perfectly right in being more than annoyed by the behaviour of what he calls "spoiled brats,"with their knocking on doors and windows.

This is quite clearly yet another vandalistic activity for the local yobs to indulge in,and their antagonistic attitude isn't unique to the Lochgelly area.

Throughout the region,and throughout Scotland in general,anti-social teenage behaviour is rife. Underage drinking is the norm,whilst they hang around street corners and local parks.

In Dunfermline some newly installed artwork in the Public Park was vandalised within five hours!!!

I have written here before about the (ir)responsibility of parents (mine always knew where I was of a night-time,and there was also a curfew in place.)

To be fair, many parents do instil these virtues in their children, but so many adopt an "out of sight,out of mind" attitude and it's with many of the parents that these issues need to be addressed.
