Funny me and my partner brought this case up while watching the prog.
I am going to be contacting channel 4 and asking them will they be passing the names and addresses of the children and parents involved in the making of the programme, to the social services or NSPCC as only then can they act.
The only difference it appears that some parents, like the ones who took their child to Thailand, couldv possibly be making money from betting that takes place on the fights
quote:
In Thailand not wearing protective head gear they could punch and kick to the head, it seems they have bets on the kids, bets taken on fights in Thailand, the father stated that he tells his kid to not go in hard in the first round so it looks like he is not going to win, you get better odds, then in the second round he picks it up and wins, so I presume the dad is winning money on it, the blows to the head was shocking, they got permission to take the kids out of school to go to Thailand for this fighting.
the desire, as always, is nothing to do with the sport but everything to do with finding a way to a more comfortable lifestyle with less work and more money.
Its the dream of many to find celebrity, fame and fortune - and it really does not matter which arena you find it in - as long as it happens. It could be called entrepreneurial activity and it is not just limited to the working class.

Indeed. Social Services might also take note of one of the items blurted out by the victorious little chappy at the end of the programme - along with a ten million pound house, a car and loads of stuff for his parents he also proposed to buy 'a massive pit for my dogs'. Now what does this tell us?
