So I've been thinking about how different the world has become since the TURN of the millenium, literally. I never realized the effects of generational change until I started to really look at what WE yes WE as adults have lead our youth to become. from cursing to a drastic increase in exploring sexuality, WE must realize our youth is being lead astray by the people whom should be protecting them...THERE OWN OLDER BROTHERS AND SISTAS... WE are condoning the development of a mislead generation by engaging in two activities... either we are NOT lending an ear to their cries to be acknowledged OR we are encouraging the development of such activity. We must ask ourselves WHY our children believe that being on our corners at 4 am at the age of 12 is acceptable. What happened to the restrcitions set before our children to protect them from the unknown? WHY are little boys and girls able to curse, but yet are not capable of succeed in spelling, reading and math? lastly WHY are our children not succeeding, believing and inspiring to be all they can be? The only answer I can come up with points to us as brothas and sistas... the village metaphor must still be alive somewhere right!? at least I hope it is..... it truely does take a village...smh... I jus wanna kno when my village will actually show up for the family reunion... -Tabernacle
