Do You Know What's Going On?

Dear Friends and Family,

As you have probably all seen on the news lately, there have been too many abductions of children by pedafiles and others. There are also a big push to pass laws in congress for harsher punishment for sex offenders due to these unfortunate incidents. I pray that these laws pass. But there is one thing not being said, everyone is blaming the offenders and that they are the only ones who need to be held accountable. But I feel very strongly that one major point is being left out of the media coverage. The protection and changes must first be made in the home. We must be better aware of our surroundings, we must be home more with our children, we must take a stronger stand in the knowledge of our childrens where abouts. Come on these all sound like common since things but you would be surprised how few parents even know what their children are currently studying in school. I am not blaming parents for the abduction of their children but for us to protect our children we have to open our eyes (both Father and Mother) and know what's going on. They are trying to pass a thing about being able to send porn to picture phones. Well hello the majority of phones are in the hands of 9 year olds and older. We as parents have to take a stand and it has to start in our homes.

What's going on in your home, in your neighborhood, in your church, or even in you kids school? What kind of music do your kids enjoy, tv shows, or even food? Do you know the answer to these simple questions? Take time out for your kids and let them know you care. Because as I said before The Changes Must Start in the Home!

A Very Concerned Mom,

Brittney
