Hell In a Handbasket!

So, I originally started writing about something totally different, but my Mom called to talk to me about something that happened at my little brother's Middle School today. That conversation really got me thinking and to be quite honest, it really freaked me out too....freaked about the future. So, these two girls (13 years old or so) that Christopher is friends with got into a FIST FIGHT in the middle of their English classroom! This fight was apparently so bad the teached as standing there in tears because there was nothing she could do to break them up, blood was drawn and at one point one of the girls was kicking the other in the stomach. The office was called, but they couldn't get there fast enough. I am totally and 100% appalled at America's youth. The disrespect, the attitudes, the oblivion to the world or the feelings of others around them. Discusting. Have you seen the latest story about bullying? (Link)A girl from Ireland's family move here so she can get an "experience America," instead... she killed herself because some little pieces of garbage treated her like crap becuase she started dating a Senior football player. These girls even taunted her after her death on the facebook page her friends created for her in her memory! Who/where are these girls' parents?
I love my daughters, but if those girls were my children, I would walk them to the police station, and tell the cops to lock em up. I pray to God that He makes me a good enough parent to teach my girls RIGHT from WRONG, COMPASSION, WISDOM and LOVE! I am completly terrified for my girls to get older. Not because I am afraid that they will treat someone badly, becuase like I said before, I have faith that God will teach me to be a strong enough parent to teach them how to treat people, but becuase I am afraid of society! I am afraid of everyone else who DOESN'T /WON'T teach their children the fundamentals of human decency!
When I was a kid, people were mean. I was treated like crap in middle school, maybe I  was mean to someone, maybe I made someone feel terrible, if I did I probably didn't even know I was doing it. For this, I feel terrible. The things that people say to one another these days is just disgraceful! I won't even go into the awful things those girls in Christopher's class said to one another today! If things are this different 10 years after I graduated from High School, what are they going to be like another 10 years from now?

Come on, America! You should be ashamed of yourself!!
