First Grade Girl....

[Janet]

I know Marilyn, sometimes I wish I could take her in. The 3 adults in that house are not mentally able to take care of this little girl. Patty was so excited that she found a kitten last year, but they all forgot to feed it and it died. Same thing with a puppy this year. The child welfare and other county offices know all about the situation, yet it remains the same.

We have cameras in our buses. The thing is, I hardly ever have mine turned on. I just don't need it. My kids know I care a great deal about them, but they also know I wouldn't hesitate for a second to be in their face and haul their butts to the office for bad behavior.

You're right Marilyn, it's sad, the world we live in now, but if we could all just DEMAND better of our kids (whether ours or someone else's) everything would be okay for their future. Until we do that....well, all I can say is, I'm glad I won't be around.
