Child Free Village


A development in Scotland does not allow children to live there..

BBC News - The quiet life in a child-free village

I would be interested to see the debate between the parents, the non parents, and the under 16 year olds to see how their opinions differ!!

Discuss..

I think the picture says it all.



Looks a great place to live.
No graffiti, no rubbish etc.
I think it's a terrific idea, i wish London was a Child free zone.

People have a right to choose to live in a quiet area if they want.
No problem here.

I quite like the idea, and can see it benefiting the residents, so long as the rules regarding visiting child relatives are not to strict.

I think there is something in the deeds of our apartment that prohibits children living here also (along with dogs!)

After looking at the site.. Caledonian Retreats Ltd. - Firhall Village Development, Nairn and looking at it on google streetmap it really just looks like a couple of streets rather than a village and looks more like a posh retirement retreat.

I wonder if there's a playpark, lol

that's because you're comparing a small countryside town to a large city.

Children are a source of happiness .I'm only 17 but when i see a little boy trying to play football or playing with sand or just walking it makes me happy.

Maybe it's just me but

Around where I live kids at 8 years old abuse you as you walk by knowing for a fact* that you either..
A) Ignore them, in which case the just get bolder and bolder... OR...
B) Go knock on their dads door and tell the fckr straight that he'd better get his kid in line.
50/50 chance of you ending up scrapping over the issue but at least you can kick 10 bells out of his dad without worrying about a charge sheet.

* Unless you've had words before of course, then daddy has made it clear that they don't abuse strangers...

That's very different.
That picture is from a country where you get arrested for kissing your girlfriend in public.
God knows what they'd do to kids who did graffiti etc.

i know it's very differt i posted it as a reply picture (showing that even if it's not a child free it can seem calm and nice)

I know that you'd be arrested for kissing your GF ... But you have also the right to get 4 (legal) wifes

Lol.

Splitting people off, making more an elite attitude is what we're doing wrong in this country. Everyone should be able to live together.
