i agree she behaved badly but is it down to immaturity

That is no excuse.The anti-bullying teaching starts in primary school.

Then I would say that my 11 and 12 year old are mature ..... They have been brought up never to treat anyone like that and I know they wouldn't.

A 19 year old should know better so theres no excuse for what she's done.

All the better for her to learn from her BB experience that bullying and excessive bitching is wrong.

I'm a year older but I would NEVER behave the way Lesley has, I don't think that you can excuse her behaviour as immaturity - its all to do with her and very little to do with age, imo.

Size 19 ???

Also for the producers to realise 19 year olds are not good contestants.

No, we should put it down to lack of breeding and general vileness, I'm 18, and I would never treat anyone the way Lesleh has treated Sam.

She's an adult. She said exactly that on tonight's highlight show.

And she's the same age as Kemal.

I don't come here a lot, but i'm under the impression the majority are pro-sam and anti-Lesley?!

Say it ain't so!

they'[re probably bitching about you behind your back right now

No excuses. Shes 19 and of the correct age to be responsible for her actions, and the consequences of them

if she's only 19 then she shouldn't have been picked in the first place. Too many kids in there in my humble opinion

No we don't. I've found this argument/defence/reasoning absolutely ridiculous this year. If you'd have said nine yes, but nineteen? No.

There were anti-Sam last week.

Youngling, It is so

19 = circumference of gob in inches?

Doubt it fast asleep

Maybe thats where someone went wrong with her .... not enough disipline

I'm anti sam and anti lesley .... doesn't matter what others do wrong you just don't bully

and isn't he mature..

Her age is irrelevant, however other things should be thought about.

She has obviously never been told that her behaviour is wrong. She is ill educated at best, her parents have obviously made her feel very special (which isn't a bad thing in itself), but they omitted to teach her that others are just as special as she is, not better, not worse, the same.

I admit that there comes a time when you can't blame your upbringing, and you have to take responsibility for your own actions, but what is instilled in you as right and wrong as a child, sets you on the right road IMO.

I wasn't a bully when I was five let alone nineteen. I understood it to be cruel and wrong.

In 1965 Vietnam seemed like just another foreign war,
but it wasn't.
It was different in many ways, as so were those that did the fighting.
In World War II the average age of the combat soldier was 26...
In Vietnam he was 19.
In Vietnam he was 19.
All those who remember the war
They won't forget what they've seen..
Destruction of men in their prime
whose average was 19
Dedededededede-Destruction
Dedededededede-Destruction

thank you, Paul Hardcastle.....

We do have to feel sorry for her but not because she’s 19
Social skills have to be installed in people from an early age and either Lesley was asleep at the time or her parents just could not be bothered to pass on what was taught to them if it ever was...

I think it’s a little unfair she was picked in the first place but being a perceived thicko did Jade Goody no harm financially which means so much these days to the Chav brigade
Easy money without having to work for it

After getting a heads up from Max about her behaviour Lesley choose to ignore it and then Big Brother had to step in

Even then it looked like she didn’t really grasp what was happening possibly because this is all she knows
Sad
