I think its wonderful to see that our society has progressed that far, that parents would say such crap to kids, and then allow them to sit there and be so critical as to hurt someone's feelings and give them nightmares... way to go Mom and Dad.... Oh but wait... I think I was exposed to such a thing in Elementary School... Ahhhh yes, everyone picked on me because I had a funny last name, and because I was from Cleveland... and because I let it bother me... Gee, seems like parents are to blame a lot of the time for things that children do... I know you can't stop kids from Riduculing and picking on other kids when you are not around... but I know that kids can be taught at an early age, that its bad to pick on others and to put someone down because they are different... too bad more people don't teach their kids that... too bad more parents don't teach their kids to be genuine human beings... but maybe they aren't around all the time... maybe the kids live in front of the TV and the parents don't care... and the parents send them to some camp where they teach you that you can't be religious in public... because you might offend someone else... I blame parents more than anything... its not so much because of TV and music and computer games... those are all scapegoats for the problems with the youth today... the real problem is the Adults who are the role models to these kids.. the adults who are supposed to be teaching these kids right and wrong... and all the important things in life... I can't belive that some kids would tell another kid that Her and her family were going to hell because they weren't christians... who ever their pastor or reverend or whatever the source of that information was, should be flogged with sea bass... Oh well... I dunno.... I just know that one day when I do get married and have kids... (if it ever happens) I am going to do my best to keep them strait and hopefully point them in a direction that will keep them from becoming like all those other kids who pick on others and have no respect for anything... and are biased and prejudice to things they don't understand.. hopefully they will have open minds towards all things... and will accept everyone as equals... except for Carnies... I really hate them... anyways...

PEACE!
Oxymoron
