~STOPPING THE VIOLENCE~

OUR YOUTH OF YORK CITY ARE DYING SLOWLY. ITS TIME TO STEP IN && STOP THIS MESS! FIRST THINGS FIRST. IT STARTS IN THE HOMES. WE NEED TO LEARN HOW TO CHERISH MOMENTS WE HAVE TOGETHER, PUT ASIDE PETTY THINGS && SHOW EACH OTHER WE CARE. I FEEL AS THOUGH PARENTS NEED TO TREAT THERE KIDS WITH RESPECT JUST LIKE THEY WANT US TO SHOW THEM RESPECT. ANOTHER THING , SHOW YOUR CHILD YOU LOVE THEM! ENGAGE IN THEIR SCHOOL LIFE && ACTIVITIES TO SHOW THEM THAT THEY MEAN A LOT TO YOU. SIT DOWN && TALK TO THEM ABOUT RIGHT, WRONG, && OTHER LIFE EXPERIENCES WHETHER THEY WANT TO HEAR IT OR NOT! PARENTS NOW A DAYS AREN'T PUTTING THEIR FOOT DOWN!! WE NEED TO COME TOGETHER AS FAMILIES. TELL YOUR KIDS YOU LOVE THEM EVERYTIME YOU LEAVE OR THEY LEAVE THE HOUSE! IT COUNTS:) OUTSIDE THE HOME:: I FEEL AS THOUGH PEOPLE IN CHARGE OF THE CITY GOVERNMENT NEED TO HAVE MORE COMMUNITY CENTERS FOR THE YOUTH TO TRY && PREVENT THEM FROM BEING IN THE STREETS! WE NEED MORE PLACES TO HAVE FUN ACTIVITIES THAT INTEREST OUR YOUTH! ALSO, WHEN YOUR DRIVING OR WALKING DOWN THE STREET && YOU SEE SOMETHING GOING ON THAT SEEMS TO BE LIFE THREATENING DO SOMETHING!!!! DON'T JUST STARE && KEEP IT MOVING! BOTTOM LINE IS THIS VIOLENCE NEEDS TO STOP, NO MATTER WHAT THERE WILL ALWAYS BE VIOLENCE && ITS UP TO US THE PEOPLE TO TRY && HELP STOP IT.
