SIR - About 40 years ago I confiscated and destroyed a pack of cigarettes from an under-age boy who was smoking outside the school in Merriman's Hill.
The next day his parent came in and successfully demanded an apology with financial compensation.
Readers might like to reflect on the possibility that our attitudes today will have consequences 40 years later.
