It's their culture innit?

I know but .......I'm surprised the authorities don't step in.

There was a gypsy girl in my daughter's class...she left after primary school and was never seen again....I think they must have moved on and married her off. I don't think the authorities really care one way or the other

it does seem as if the girls are indoctinated into believing their role in life is to clean house and produce children.  While a boy's role is to earn the money and be waited on hand and foot by the woman 

 

 

Jesus, the amount of bleach she put in that water

I think so Ells. But the girls have said, it's more or less so that they don't lose their own culture, and get mixed up in "Behind the bike shed" stuff, like drinking and smoking and boys.
