Some of the parents here have told the faculty that is the schools job, to correct and fix the problems of the kids..BTW two trouble ones I personally know and one could very easily grow in to a serial killer..The school forced social services to provide counseling and the alcoholic mom is irate...Claims they have no right, this is her kid...in the same conversation she told me she expects the school to fix his problems~ [/quote] Meanwhile, how far to the left of the bell curve has that little one been able to drag the rest of his peers by denying them educational resources they could better take advantage of without an energy vampire and disruptive influence in their learning and developmental environment at school? [/quote] Yes, the cost of disturbed abused children is great..Both emotionally and financially.. [/quote]
Original Message
There has been a lot said about the 2year old child that was cruelly run over and ignored and, as disgusting as that was, I was more disgusted with the attitude of some Americans in the way they blamed the Chinese people.
Personally I feel Its not the race of people but the environment and economic situation. I heard on the ABC radio today about Americas child abuse death rates and was even more let down by humans in general.
1700 children, most under 4, died of abuse in the US in 2009 and the highest rate was in Texas.
GLPers were amazed that others stood back and did nothing but here we are standing back and cutting child services and education. Sometimes I ask how are we able to live with ourselves when we wont even help our own!
