On June 25, 2024, Dr. Vivek Murthy, the U.S. Surgeon General, declared gun violence a public health crisis. As the nation’s top doctor, he stated, “It will take a collective commitment of our nation to turn the tide. Our children’s and future generations’ safety and well-being are at stake.” Gun violence deaths sharply increased after the pandemic as social isolation and mental health problems increased in every community.Since 2020, guns have been the leading cause of death for children and younger Americans across all demographics. The 40-page report stated, “In 2022, the B…

Life on planet Earth is a journey of self-discovery to find our hidden talents and develop the courage to excel. Children are born with imagination, intuition, creativity, insights, instincts, a sense of humor, and a self-protective conscience, which can keep them safe and healthy. Our life’s journey is to find our path to peace and help others. You cannot rely on anyone else; self-discovery is an individual journey. We are ultimately responsible for the decisions we make in life.Children may become schoolyard bullies, but they have the potential to become future leaders in sports, arts…

In Part One, the topic was empowering children to prevent them from becoming bullies or victims. Spiritually centered children learn to stay safe by speaking up and standing up for themselves without anger as they develop self-confidence. Part Two: Recognize adult bullies who prey on emotionally weak people who lack self-confidence and go along with the crowd to have a false sense of power. Over the years, as a crime and violence prevention specialist, I learned everyone has good instincts and a guardian angel to protect them. We need to teach children to listen to their inner guidance, …

Everyone is different, and we show a variety of personalities when we are toddlers. Children can be aggressive (grab a toy from another child), passive (shy and cling to parent), or even-tempered but can demonstrate both behaviors at different times. This is normal behavior for babies. How adults teach children to handle aggressive and passive behaviors determines a child’s future.I have three children; each was different but demonstrated their future behavior if not addressed. My first child was so shy and sensitive and would cling to me when she met someone or in a new environment. My …

Are “we the people” expecting politicians to save our children and restore family and community values? A politician’s job is to pass laws and spend taxpayers’ money.Beware of giving politicians too much power. Hitler demonstrated how one man took over Germany, gradually becoming a nation of followers. Putin is today’s example of one man’s evil power to control people as he tries to extend his power beyond Russian borders. Could that happen in America?The world will never see peace if we ignore the power of the human spirit.Look around; what areas in your city have peac…

Americans have seen a gradual decline in family, youth, and neighborhood health and safety. Years ago, many citizens decided they didn’t need a loving God to help guide their lives or the lives of their children.  Today’s statistics are alarming and costly.Taxpayers spend $220 million a DAY on child abuse and neglect. (Prevent Child Abuse)We spend $655 Billion a year on gangs. (youth.gov) 1.2 million high school students drop out of school, which can lead to teen parenthood, unemployment, victimization, drug and alcohol abuse, petty violence, juvenile conviction, and inc…

Since Columbine in 1999, more than 338,000 students in the U.S. have experienced gun violence at school, with over 19,000 people shot and wounded or killed in a mass shooting since 2015. The mother of Michigan High School shooter Ethan Crumbley, age 15, was recently convicted of four counts of involuntary manslaughter. Her husband goes on trial on March 5th. The defense attorney stated that this case is “dangerous” for parents everywhere. Parents have been put on notice: you will be held accountable! America has a culture of young people lacking family support, values, and a…

Many Americans are living in fear as violence on our streets continues to go unchecked. Stores are looted, and vandalism increases, with many stores going out of business. City leaders put limitations on police, and prosecutors fail to prosecute criminals.Teenagers discovered what adults failed to learn: they have unstoppable power to create fear and make people feel helpless as they band together to loot stores and destroy property. A gang of young people can ruin small companies. On the flip side, parents and grandparents can learn from teen looters that a group of 10 or 20 neighbor…

Americans who are based in the Middle East have been attacked 165 times since the devastating ambush of Israeli citizens on October 7th. Has America’s response worked or failed?As a crime and violence prevention specialist for 40 years, I don’t have experience in national policy, but I do know how to keep the peace in families and neighborhoods, which makes cities safer for everyone. Our leaders need to be more knowledgeable about bullying behavior and how to stop it. The first step to becoming a bully is teaching children to hate others who don’t believe the way they do. T…

Americans can win the spiritual battle between love and hate, good and evil. People in free nations choose to believe in a loving God, a controlling God, or no God! A loving God empowers, a controlling God dictates behavior, and no God creates spiritual ignorance. Without any spiritual understanding of self, anger and hate can become self-destructive. Americans have the freedom to choose how to live their lives.The power of hate:In cultures where dictators are in power, they control speech and behavior.Rules must be obeyed.Women lack Education and are told how to act and dres…

When young people grow up without a foundation of love, support, and respect, they may not understand the difference between good, bad, and evil. However, we see more crime! How many young people are looting, rioting in the streets, lashing out at strangers, and destroying property? When anger turns into violence, American freedom is on a destructive path.The traditional structures of parental attention, extended family members, involved neighbors, and a safe school environment have eroded. A Godless society is emerging as we watch young people without a moral compass, creating havoc, dest…

Americans are watching crime and violence on our streets, with teens and young adults looting stores, rioting, hitting strangers, and killing innocent people. It is sad to see and tragic for everyone who doesn’t feel safe in today’s cities. Yes, we need more police and consequences for criminal behavior, but that will not solve the problem. The real problem is that young people will have criminal behavior on their conscience. They may try to ignore who they are becoming by escaping into alcohol or drugs. Many of today’s youth never learned how to love themselves or care about others…

Over the last few decades, Americans saw a massive change from girls protecting their virginity in the 1950s to an increasing number of teenagers actively engaging in sex. Sex gradually became acceptable in movies; today, sexual acts are on daytime TV. Some schools are now talking to young children about sex, different forms of sexual activities, gender dysphoria, and body dysmorphic disorder (Often there is a history of child abuse, neglect, or trauma- 2.5% of girls, 2.2% of boys around age 12 to 13.

any parents neglect to tell children that every human is born with extraordinary powers that can keep them safe and healthy. When teens lack a spiritual understanding, they may go down the rabbit hole of self-destruction.Some teens are experimenting with sex when they are unprepared for any adverse emotional trauma that can follow. They may escape into drugs or become socially isolated. Children may become victims of bullies. Spiritually off-centered teens may follow a mob and feel entitled to steal, loot, or abuse others.

In the ’70s, I saw an ad in the local newspaper inviting residents to experience life regression with Dr. Helen Wambach. Since I discussed my three-hour journey in Part One, I will share my perspective today about good and evil. If young people understood past lives, they might make better choices for their future. During her lifetime, Dr. Wambach regressed 2,000 people. Today, Michael Newton, at the Newton Institute, has written about 7,000 cases. So, why is this information ignored? Why aren’t we discussing the importance of past lives? This information today might help us expl…

There have been 147 mass shootings this year. In Louisville, KY, four died, and nine people were injured at the hands of a 23-year-old man. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear lost his best friend and said, “Violence tears at the social fabric of our community. What we need now is LOVE and wrap our arms around each other.” So, what can we do to stop mass shootings?In the past, we have been dealing with symptoms, not solutions. We assume if we had more gun control and mental health facilities, the problem would fade away.Let’s get real! There are 393.3 million guns in circulation today…
