WARNING: if we suffer the children who will be our leaders for tomorrow?
Recently, there was a big economic down fall. More and more people have lost their incomes. Many of them have worked probably years and years at that job. They probably planned on that income to pay off debts, start families, work on being independent and move further in life to live that American Life. But now all of a sudden they are faced with the last of their savings trying to decide if they should pay for rent or food to feed their family. What are they going to do...some might pay rent and have their place for one more month and go with out food but the kids can't grow on no food. So the other part might pay for food and be without a home in that same month.
Now what? This normal family is faced to find a new place to live. Be that extended family-but no money to travel to them, or finding a shelter. Most of these families end up on the street begging for food, money and the mercy of those more fortunate people.
But what happened to their kids? Where do they live, sleep, or get food? They end up begging, selling what ever they have, and sleeping on the street because they couldn't help mommy or daddy make ends meat.
How are we, the nation of freedom, going to let our own sleep in the cold, open to the harshness of the street and the people who come to this place?
Why are we letting our children hurt and go with out?
I think we should start a system of homes for children to go to...where they are sponsored and are able to be children. To learn and to move on to better standings. Are able to make a difference and have a launching point to do more with life. what say you? Are we a nation who cares for other nations and not our own too? or do we pick those choice to help people who are worthy and make us look good in public? I mean if a kid in Africa is starving we are on that like a fly on poop but we have children dying in our streets of being suffered homelessness. Why can't we lend a hand and save the young?
What would you do?
