Stick-uplid - I don't even think we all pretend, many if not most genuinely do not have any ambition and somewhere to squat and f**k all day everyday is all they need
. We used to be told women would go out of their way to get pregnant just to get a council flat....these women are thinking about themselves not the next generation and the men are just as bad, more babymothers with council flats the more options they have - but I'm from your school, you'd have to come from the slums in JA to look at some of these high rise shitholes and call them home.

But same way I hear you on the pretend tip, you know who the hypocrites are because they're all telling their children to be doctors and accountants so they don't have to be raise their children in the dumps they grew up in. I call it putting the onus on the next generation because you squandered your opportunity on weed, wine and sex.
Too many of us only see sense when we've had our fill and our hungry belly pikney are looking us in our eyes...no wonder nuff man have to kick off and run...they're embarrassed.

At the same time many of these council flats could be very decent places to live if they were populated with community wide ambition.
