My Wife started teaching school this past year, and after I get in from work we always catch up on each others day while she's cooking Supper.
Some of the stories she tells me about what's going on in her young students lives, really throws me for a loop. Mom's in Jail, Dad's in Jail, Both are in Jail. Grandma's and Grandpa's raising these young uns' Aunts, Uncles having custody.The mental and physical abuse these kids endure, the uncertainty about not when they'll be picked up from School but IF someone will show up. It's a crying shame these kids aren't getting their just right to grow up in a normal environment, with loving, caring Parents/Parent.This is a Country School, not the inner city. What is happening? where has everything gone wrong? I went to Elementary School in the very late 60's and early 70's, and dont remember a single case of anyone being raised or living without their Mom and dad, unless there had been a Divorce involved, and that was a rarity.What are we going to do as far as having any kind of a future when we get old? Seems families are disentegrating.Guess my Wife and I are doing something right...Raising our kids straight laced and respectful, and staying together, as a Family.The way we were brought up.
Any Thoughts?
