Many of us have uttered those words after watching newscasts concerning the recent violent events in our nation's schoolyards. We are teaching kids to hate. We are teaching them to hurt others. We are teaching them to not respect life. Although I am against most censoring, I believe our kids need to be protected until they reach an age in which they can make appropriate decisions concerning objectionable material and have developed healthy attitudes about life.
Kids kill other kids just to see what it is like.
They harm pets or injure siblings. They laugh when someone is abused, even when they themselves are victims. As a result, teen parents kill their newborns and discard them in dumpsters or bathrooms. So the cycle continues, and innocent life is destroyed wantonly. This violence cycle is obvious in the gang situation.
