Family Mom Mall
506 words
I can remember taking a family vacation out of
town somewhere back in the 80 's. Like every other
black family, I was the little kid in the back
seat of the car being ignored by my parents and
older relatives. In my mind I'm thinking, "Why
does my mom ignore me when we have company"? I
don't know. I was a kid I didn't understand those
things at the time. On the other hand, we had been
driving for hours. So the family decided to take a
rest stop at the mall. I hate it when I get stuck
with my mom...

Parenting Classes Child Neglect
806 words
Having a child is something that is supposed to be
an experience that lasts a lifetime. Children need
lots of attention when they are born, and they
need to be properly taken care of by parents that
are responsible and caring. As sad as it is there
is a large problem with child neglect and abuse. I
believe that every couple, or single parent that
is going to raise a newborn should have to go
through mandatory parenting classes before the
child is born. I think that this will help parents
to lear...

A Youth in Poverty To most, it's very easy to
imagine how it would feel to grow up without much
of anything in life. Hell... I can tell you first
hand what it feels like to not have a decent pair
of shoes or pants without holes in them, or old
"hand-me-down" toys while most of the kids you
know have "state-of-the-art" toys. To many
children in this kind of situation, it seems like
a very bleak world to live in. No child should
ever have to experience this kind of life.
