I should NEVER have done that. vs. I should have NEVER done that. Which is correct?
English has phrasal verbs. For simple past, we would, of course, say DID. But for other tenses, we use phrases, using what your teacher probably calls "helping verbs": have done had done will do was doing is doing should do should have done ...and so on. Now, when any one of these is made negative, the negative word always follows the first word in the verb phrase. Therefore, we have: have never done had never done will never do was never doing is never doing should never do should never have done ...and so on. Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "I should never have done that." should have done should have been doing

'I should have not done it' 'I should not have done it'. Which is the correct sentence?
Both are correct, but they have slightly different meanings.‘I should have not done it.’ - This sentence places emphasis on ‘not’, which highlights the fact that you did do it. So, this sentence emphasizes the fact that you DID do something.‘I should not have done it.’ - In this sentence, we would probably say ‘I shouldn't have done it.’ Notice that ‘not’ is not emphasized. Rather, it blends in with ‘should’. This sentence sounds more natural for a native speaker.
What should have been done with Saddam's Iraq?
CIA,MI-6 & Mossad could have killed Saddam(in a coordinated attack) and could have portrayed it an accident or a conspiracy. Killing of Saddam is not what everybody condemns but what America and her allies did with Iraq, is something horrible. Don’t you know what Tony Blair is saying nowadays?“Blair said he had wanted to set the Iraqi people free and secure them from the “evil” of Saddam Hussein, but instead they had become victims of sectarian violence.For all of this, I express more sorrow, regret and apology than you can ever know or believe,” he said, in a speech in which his voice cracked with emotion.”Tony Blair: 'I express more sorrow, regret and apology than you can ever believe'Absolutely, he is right but what to do with this regret now? Thousands of children died, many kids became orphan and when they will grow up, revenge and fury will lead them to the path of ISIS type of morons. Can you console a kid who lost all his brothers with just a simple sorry? Can you console that old man who lost all his sons and daughters? Can you console Yazidi girls who are being raped by ISIS’s lustful dogs? Can you console those refugees who—when go to other countries and are treated like animals,terrorists etc? I mean come on man!!!America and her allies have made the mess of whole Iraq. America did that intentionally because they didn’t only want to free Iraq from Saddam but America wanted to do some other business which i don’t want to explain here(as it will take lot of time). If America had had the intention of removing Saddam only,then she could have done like, what they did with a Pakistani leader (a leader who seemed a threat to them). This really was not the sole purpose. Because killing Saddam didn’t mean that destruct their oil refineries, bomb Iraqi cities and leave them with a weak govt so that ISIS type of people should grow. Easy way was to kill Saddam through a coordinated operation and then provoke the people to ask for democracy and hinder the dictatorship. This process could have taken a year only.No lives lost, evil gone, democracy prevailed. Aggression and peace can’t go at the same time.Thanks
What should someone know, and have done by age 19?
Social and cultural, not to mention religious, expectations have varied from time to time and place to place. In some of these, marriage and children, commiting the entire Torah to heart, slaying a dozen of your tribe's enemies, etc., are expected at your age. I'm sure Mozart was expected to do great things in music at an early age.If you are male or female, expectations differ. Your talents or lack thereof will also inform expectations. Even your size and physiognamy would determine your calling in some minds.The point is there are no set shoulds other than those relative to time and place. If I could propose a universal should, it might be to know yourself. I'm not saying you should know yourself by the age of 19, but to the capacity that one of your age and background could, you should. It is from that level of self-knoweldge, after all, that you can properly weigh the codified and sanctified expectations of any civilization from any point in world history, including your own.
What are some things that you should have done by the age of 15/16? just wondering.?
I'm 16 now (17 in Nov) and doing my GCSE's. Looking back I think my only regret is not doing anough work in school- TRUST ME, revision throughout years 10/11 totally pays off. Believe your teachers! I didn't and now I find I'm awake every night until one in the morning, with school books open on my lap, a bottle of lucozade, and one hell of a stressed mentality. Other that that I think that... Everyone should go see a west end show (purely because I saw a few and loved them). You should take as many photos as you can, where ever you go - I did, and I'm glad I have the memories to look back on. Every girl should fall hard for a boy, and learn how to pick themselves back up again (what's being teenager without crushes?) Go to a big concert (and buy the t-shirt). Go to a festival. Watch all of F.R.I.E.N.D.S Have at least one big horror movie marathon sleepover. Read as many books as you can. Learn to find your own style, and not do what everyone else is doing. Go to the beach as much as possible. Umm, I guess just do whatever it is you want - take the chances now whilst you're still young. Just be happy.
