Talk:Dutch pedophiles set to go political

POV

Article has POV: "This currently stands at 18, but should be lowered to 12" Needs a cleanup before publishing/ bad grammer. Brian | (Talk) | ^{New Zealand Portal} 19:18, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

I think it wasn't intended to be POV -- the author doesn't appear to be a native English speaker. I've tweaked it a bit.--Eloquence 19:23, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

It was indeed intended to represent the POV of the party. I probably should have written "This currently stands at 18, but should, according to the party be lowered to 12" (without the emphasis of course). Whizz.nl 23:18, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

POV2

This edit ([1]) appears to introduce a POV with its use of the term radical - anyone else agree? (I'm new so would be good to know if I'm on the right track with the whole NPOV stuff :) ) R2b2 00:12, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I'd say this article itself has a large amount of POV. This is because i've read their manifesto and there is a lot more going on then mentioned in the article. Since i would be POVed at editing, could someone who can read Dutch take a look at their site (www.nvd.nu) and mention some other standpoints _wihout_ POV? -- De Zeurkous (root@lichee.nichten.info), Wed May 31 04:06:12 UTC 2006

What is the definition of a child?

I'm not for my daughter having sex at the age of 12, However when I was coming up, girls (several) were having sex with slightly older so called boys (hair on their face and all) but we call that a child, when they were 12. There is only an issue when someone does find out. I call this unequal justice, how many out there should of went to jail. It seems if they are doing it and no one finds out about it everything is fine. I truly believe there is a time when a younger person believes it's time to have sex, and it shouldn't be based on age, but maturity or when someone sitting on some law making board somewhere says you can have sex now because you are old enough. I think society needs to review their so called age definition and concentate on the maturity and intellegience of the person and base laws accordingly. Just an opinion. Also, we must protect (children) from having sex too early in life, it could ruin their morality. I became above the so-called child age at 14.

The legal definition (synonymous with 'minor' I think) usually means when you can't vote, so younger than 18. In common usage it usually signifies something younger since 'child/kid' usually refers to preteens. Tyciol (talk) 01:21, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
