Bad experience with JP at Johnsonville Community Center

Kyle from Churton Park

Hi my neighbours,
If you want to see JP, please don't come here on Monday if you have other options. A few weeks ago, I had to stop working, going back home to take my wife and 2 months old baby to see JP with a few document as Birth certificate, Parental Leave because they work from 10-12pm. We came there around 11:30am and waited for 15 minutues. I came in to say Hi, he also said Hi but look at me carefully from head to my foot with painting overall, not a friendly look, take my document and have a very quick look at them, just 2 seconds and told me that he doesn't have enough time to do it, asked me to email to him, but don't give us his email. We were so surprised and shock as we didn't have any chance to explain what we need to do. Me and my wife are still confusing in there and don't know what to do but he come out to ask the next person to come in. I feel like he wants to kick me out of there. That's the worst experience with JP in my life.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
