Growing Up in Ireland Today

“We are better off than 99% of humanity”, “we spend more on crisps than prescription drugs”. With facts like these, one would imagine that growing up in Ireland today couldn’t be better.

    Great article. Sounds like the good ole USA on a smaller scale. We no longer teach our kids morals, they have become fat and lazy, and they always have their hands out for mom and dad to give them a handout. Nobody, and i mean nobody, better ever try to correct my child or i’ll kill them. This is the attitude of 60% of our parents today. Families never sit down for meals with each other any more. If they do, it isn’t cooked, it’s usually fast food. I could ramble on and on but i’m starting to depress myself. Well done friend. “Oh the good ole days”.

    Like hfj, I was thinking the problems you list for Ireland sound much too familiar. I do have a question, though. What’s a Celtic Tiger? I collect slang phrases, and that is one I’ve not heard.
