Aussie Beach Louts - time for change

Anti-social behaviour, racism and hate are learnt initially at home. This is where we need to start to turn around this scurge on the Australian landscape.

Part of the solution would be compulsory education, including English, to all new migrants. Topics could include our religious diversity, our customs, our ethos, our government system and importantly our social mores.

Another part would be compulsory marriage education and parenting education for any one wishing to get married or have children. This is long overdue (50% divorce rate, children out of control etc).

All these lessons could be held in schools in the evenings (which would make better use of schools and help protect them from vandalism, increase employment and increase community awareness).

At the end of the above programs each successful student/person would recieve a certificate (social satisfaction).

Non attendance at migrant school - no permanent visa
Non attendance at marriage school - no marriage licence
Non attendance at parenting school - no government assistance

Most parents try their best to raise their children but often lack the skills (which can be learnt) when problems arise. This sort of education is just as important as the 3 R's.

This would cost money of course but the savings of not having the costs of this week (Trauma, Policing costs, insurance, medical treatment etc) and other major costs to society (divorce, juvenile problems, unemployment) would well and truly cover it.
