This headline inspired me to write this article! “Boys as young as 12 years old were among those who made up a prolific organized retail theft ring in San Francisco, police said.” We have heard these stories as American society gradually changed! Look at today’s youthful behavior compared to 50 years ago. We now have […]
We have a worldwide problem! We must start a discussion about bullies, dictators, and controlling people who prey on innocent, vulnerable citizens in America and around the world.

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 […]
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 […]
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.

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.
