It's Children In Need week. Tomorrow we're doing 'needy' so tonight we are doing it for the kids. I don't mind raising money for them but draw the line at playing these little horrors...
You were thinking that there was a theme in the idea of parents and children. Here's what I think it could be: "Keep it in the family"
Whether it be family bands (Sister Sledge, The Corrs, Bros) or songs that reference family relationships (Lennon: Mother; Cat Stevens: Matthew and Son; Simply Red: Money's too tight to mention).

Surely we should not be celebrating child labour in this fashion.

#3 Rab that is a good Bob Seger track, a similar one is Paul Simon and Father and Daughter, great track.
Cheers

Most of these kids were pushed into it by their parents.
How many grew up without problems?

Sally Lindsay (played Shelly the barmaid on Coronation St) was in St Winifred's School Choir - she seems fairly well-balanced.

Only a few brave ones stay in the public eye, the rest have surely died of shame or gone into hiding on thier 16th birthday

Oh, the version of Teenage Dirtbag played last night was really heavily censored - what went out was
Her boyfriend's a [silence]
he brings a [silence]
And he'd simply kick
[silence] if he knew the truth
which was going a bit over the top, particularly the last one on a show that talked about Poo...
There is most definitely a released version that only censors the 1st two.
Google Teenage Dirtbag lyrics for the uncensored version.
