I do remember some yoofs being killed joyriding about 20 years ago.
And when the news interviewed the parents they were full of indignation about them being referred to as 'joyriders'. The father actually insisted they were 'professional car thieves'.

No parent will admit their child is a little shit.
The number of parents I've heard say 'he's a good boy really. He's never like that at home.'

Well that would be an admission of failure on their part.
Shit child = shit parents*

*Yes I know there are exceptions to this.

obviously not
but it would be extremely insensitive for anyone in the media to go 'WE'RE SO GLAD THAT LITTLE TOERAG GOT HIT BY A BUS'

Equally though
I think in the case of most people, you'd be hard pushed to find at least one person who didn't think they were great, and that's all you need.

And when anyone does a Moaty
the neighbours never say 'I knew he was a wrongun. I told the police, and they said I was just being paranoid. Well, they're not laughing now, are they?'
