WHILE entering a shop I witnessed what by present day standards was a pleasing sight. A disabled man was finding it difficult to open the door and suddenly a youth rushed from the crowd to assist him.

Trivial you may say, but this is the nub of a present day problem where youths can run riot, lacking good manners or discipline.

Yobs almost forming gangs reminds us of the shady areas of New York! This unruly behaviour emanates from parents, who fail to teach kids from an early age.

I say again though, there are some very thoughtful young people around who are willing to help us in time of need.
