Scands check out early to give the kids a break!

British Defense Minister defended the UK's utter failure at caring for its kiddies on a UNICEF report by pointing his bony finger at those northern Europeans who met their demise by their own hand.

In a recently released BBC commercial British Defense Minister, Dey Rottwo, is depicted beside a chart showing a bar graph which demonstrates how many more Scadanavians commit suicide compared to UK'ers: "Everyone knows we in the UK are could build a society that would be more child-friendly...but at least we don't kill ourselves as much as those Northern Europeans who are so successful at providing for their children."

UK Minister of Psychological Rationalization, Dr Spillane Waye-Itall explained it all away: "My studies show that if you take too good care of your children,the spoiled brats drive you to self-slaughter!"

Norwegian sociologist Henrik Noosemaker rebutted: "Our suicide rate is just another aspect of our excellent childcare.Unlike the selfish Brits who hang on forever burdening their children to no end, we, Scands, check out early to give the kids a break!"

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
