Sadly, ladies and gentlemen, what we are dealing with here is a case of poorly developed intellectual, moral and emotional maturity. Psychologically remorse is then out of the question. It is more than likely a result of upbringing, and appears to be alarmingly common (no pun intended there) in our South African society today. Just read the 'Strange Neighbors' thread. It is largely a result of 1. A piss poor example on the part of parents, generally due to a lack of involvement by one or both. 2. Total lack of respect or regard for Law and Authority. 3. Exacerbated by poor application of those Laws, by those in Authority, including parents. Some people think before 'making mistakes', and then generally don't. - They are in the minority. Some Learn from the mistakes of others, and so avoid making the mistake themselves. - Also not the majority. Some, but certainly not all, learn from their own mistakes, and don't repeat them. The majority, this LL and Leon include, blame their mistakes on everything and everyone else, and wear stupid T-Shirts to prove it. To court 'nogal'. Smart fella. It isn't going to go away.
