That would be like saying "D'you think children should have a TV?" or "D'you think children should have access to the Internet?"  If the parents have no objection to there being pets in the house then the answer is yes.  "D'you think children should buy a pet" however is a different question.  The age at which children can actually buy a pet has been raised in the UK from 12 to 16.

Actually it seems in Britain we don't grow up as quickly as we used to, as the age for buying cigarettes and fireworks has been raised from 16 to 18.  They were also thinking of raising the legal driving age by one year but never have done.

It would depend on whether I felt it was suitable viewing for them or not.

That was one puzzle I was never able to solve.  I'll tell you another thing, in the 80's I bought a computer game called "The Thinker" in which the object was to move a red block out through the bottom of a series of other blocks.  I tried that one for years & could never do it.  In the end the computer just stopped working so I took all my games down to a charity shop.  Question if any of them ever got sold.

I've no idea don't quite understand the question anyway to be perfectly honest.

I watched a documentary on TV about an estate in Britain where there was 95% unemployment.  Then again, an estate can hardly be representative of a whole country.

A good place to look would be an old folk's home.

It's the hundredth anniversary.

Maybe you should ask my friend, he's Chinese & is married to an Irishwoman.

You bring up another question here; why does it matter?
