I too blame the criminals. I just want to look beyond them to see if there is anything else we need to do. What downside can there possibly be in trying to do that? Just so long as it doesn't impact the criminal investigations in any way. I said I didn't have the answers. Just questions. I was just throwing out some initial ideas. On it's own a curfew wouldn't work. It could though perhaps be part of a wider strategy. Although I understand where you are coming from, for this case stressing the victim why she was in such an atmosphere (late night kebab shop etc) is a bit tricky start for the conversation. Unfortunately, due this culture, women are worthless. It is not hard to find justification at their end that the woman has not covered her head, skirt was short, it was late night at backstreet of a club etc. Practically, avoiding such an atmosphere can be short-term solution but long-term a generation will get used to fact that `woman should think twice` when they are going to night-club, when they wear an attractive dress etc..And that it a very dangerous route. Solution is stress all the beliefs which is against modern norms (gender equality, individual rights etc) and apply harsh punishment for the ones who practically act against it. I am not fan of Boris (in fact, don`t like him at all) but although it sounds provocative, his `letterbox` comment was a fair criticism for the mind-set which officially ignore and discriminates women in social life.

Your "solution" wasn't addressed to the problem I was trying to discuss. I specifically asked that you set that aside for the moment and address the societal problems in the background. You type too much.

You type too much. Some don't read enough! They only see what they want to see. I type quickly and I try to explain things carefully. If they don't want to read it at all that's fine with me but if they do it would help if they tried to grasp things before responding.

I was picking up on the idea of a "young teenage girl" being invited to a party by staff in a kebab shop. Not of any particular young lady but the general idea of kids being allowed to go to such places unaccompanied was what troubled me. Most on the answers, yours included, concentrate on the specifics whilst I am attempting to get behind them. I have no issue with your analysis or your suggestions to deal with it. We absolutely need to ensure everyone understands and follows our standards. That though wasn't the point I was raising.

And what happens when people not only reject those standards but actively seek to change them? More education?

So a solution to prevent this happening in your world involves every person to be the perfect parent so not having to need a care system at all, which in turn would mean these kids dont need fostering,hence they wouldn't be of the mind set to make themselves a 'target' to these; how you say,

If you read all I wrote then you will understand that I suggested that education has to be matched by sufficient deterrents to ensure those it fails to convince are controlled. We need both sticks and carrots for many problems. This is no different.

I know we have an imperfect world which isn't likely to improve and I already said just that. I am asking the question about what we, as a society, could do to help establish a background in which another problem, unrelated to the "grooming gangs" but still as potentially pervasive, would have less chance of becoming established. If you don't think that's important and have nothing to contribute other than insults to me, that's OK. Others might.

They don’t need to be taught it’s wrong.

It seems some haven't yet either learned or accepted that. We know it's wrong, just as we know Palace are a better club than Brighton, but if you have grown up in a culture which indoctrinates you then you need the truth to be shown to you. Those unable or unwilling to accept that is the truth, in our culture, will need the stick approach.
