Crime and Violence

In today's society, crime and violence is very common. Every day, we are informed on these conditions. Many teens are being captured by criminals. There is no safe place to live.

The police and the government have done their best in capturing these criminals, but there are still many that exist. At one point, we were able to live in a neighborhood and feel safe, but now, you can't find any safety no matter where you go.

Children are now the principle target for these criminals. Innocent and young, it is hard to beleive someone would want to kill them. Other teens are part of this violence. Many rely on drugs as a cure for their worries. What is even more dangerous is our children having the right to own a gun. Parents have to realize that a child is foolish without the direction of their parents. It is now the job of the parents to educate their children in basic moral standards so all of us can enjoy a peaceful life.

As for criminals, there is no reason for them to be kidnapping and killing these children. They have to realize that the future depends on us. What in fact are you teaching your child when you are a criminal? Children most of the time watch their parents' actions before involving in such things. If the parents maintain a positive attittude, their children will surely be able to do the same.
