This is as stupid as going home to get away from all the bad stuff hapenning in the world and you turn on the news. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT TO SEE?
Or you are watching a nature show called Preditor and Prey and you get "traumatized" when a lion clamps down on the neck of a gnu.
Don't go to the web sites that cater to hate and bullying and you'll be fine. JUST SAY NO!
Hi
Is this one safe?
thanks

Several years ago, I had a problem with the parents of one of our Brownie GS. They would "forget" to pick her up on time, and were known to drop the kid off for the awards so that they could shop ... instead of being there to support her.
Many parents today fall into one of two categories ... one is to have the kid involved in so many activities (some of which I am sure were things THEY had wanted to do as a child and couldn't/didn't). We had a girl one time who was in 11 activities weekly. The kid never knew where she was going, jumping place to place.
... or two, the kid spends most of their time alone with their electronics or the boobtube babysitter.
I bless the parents who listen to what the child wants and needs, who is a parent, not just an older friend, who take the time to care about their kids. I am sad to say, there are far, far too few of them these days.
Hi
I agree with what you are saying. Parents are supposed to be parents, not friends. They can become friends later in life when the child is grown, but will still always be parents first.
I've been around many teenagers who have a baby because they want someone to love them. That's not a good excuse to become a parent and it doesn't make for a good parent.
I always want to be friendly with my kids and supportive, but that comes second to being the person who makes and enforces the rules, provides for their needs and some of their wants, and sets an example of what an adult should be as far as responsibility and respect for others.
Kids have friends who are their own ages, they don't need a friend that is 20 years older than they are, or even 14 years older in the case of teen mothers. They need someone who will raise and nurter them the way a parent should
Thanks
