Well, there's nice

You do get this in the UK but probably not pre-teens because everyone would be terrified they'd be fiddled with and kidnapped.

Was there no adult hovering in the background? Or are you in a nice quiet suburb somewhere?

It's the quiet surburbs you've got to be wary of

Nicely cynical as expected. Well done.

Most likely is that they're part of a youth group where they've been sent out to do random acts of kindness and see what happens. I doubt they'd have done it themselves. I know it wouldn't work in the UK. Which is a bit sad really.

It's -6°C here and been snowing for over 24 hours. Three ten-year old lads rang our doorbell and asked if we wanted them to clear the snow from our drive. They didn't want any payment, they were super polite. And they've done a good job.

My daughter had just finished baking some biccies, so we gave them some. And they thanked us.

Good to see in Switzerland they know how to help the elderly infirm senile doddery old gits.

You should have given them a wurthers original each....

And she's a bit old for teenagers anyway.

Doesn't stop the boys dreaming.....

people here forget how teenagers work: there is also the option that they might be interested in your daughter...

Only these 3 were not teenagers...

Sorry to have triggered you (left and right, apparently) ,I just thought it was sweet.

You're the cynic as well as AtW.

Honesty boxes work in the UK so why wouldn't this work?

Kindness should be sysmetic, not random.

Child and slave labour rife in Switzerland

Combined ages were over 16, so that's ok.

Anyway, the lads were most likely scouting your house and making sure that truck can get right to the doors
