Hmmm. I don't hate women, I hate stupid people. So it is wrong to mention that some people would look at this child and think 'tearaway' when she actually turns out to be not as bad as other people would think? 'Angel' is a metaphor, you have very dull and long winded writing without some metaphors. Are you seriously telling me that you walk past groups of youths hanging around on street corners without feeling a little threatened? I do, and I'm a 6'1" bloke with a nasty streak. There are a *lot* of children out there who wouldn't have done as this girl did. So is it wrong to have a bit of praise for her. And I've never moaned about teenage mothers. Little old ladies are that because they are (a)little, (b) old and (c) ladies. I think that you have a chip on your shoulder and have decided to have a go at me for some reason. Not because you are old, but because of what you have written. Or am I wrong? (And I couldn't be misogynistic even if I wanted to - I was brought up in a one parent family and my mum would kill me!)
