Bad To The Bone

This is a marvellous leader in today's Scotsman.

Like most people, I believe human children are evil and should be reared in pens. Some people say children start off innocent but are corrupted by the BBC. However, new research shows badness is in the DNA and that some kids would be unpleasant no matter where or how they were brought up.

We need to talk about Kevin, indeed..

This is grim news indeed. Until we can modify ourselves genetically - oh, roll on, glorious day! - it's virtually impossible to nip the nasty nippers in the bud, thus leading to calls for all children to be treated harshly, just to be on the safe side.
