It used to be that kids grew up doing chores and helping around the farm or they didn't eat and in the process they learned first hand how to avoid doing something stupid because it hurt! lol

Now the children are raised on video games and in crowded class rooms by people that generally don't care because the system is faulty so they get tired of trying pretty early on. The parents don't take time to try and mold the children into responsible human beings and this is what we are stuck with.

Think back to the early days of this country, the women pioneers could shoot like a man, clean game like a man and chop wood like a man....then they cooked dinner and took care of the children all the while passing down their knowledge to the children at the same time. They HAD to be this way because life depended on it...you used your head or you died just that simple.

People MUST become more involved in the children's upbringing and move away from PUBLIC educators who are little more than baby sitters these days. When i went to school you either made the grade or you failed and was held back to repeat the year until you learned......do they even fail anyone these days? We have kids graduating high school that can't read or write....it is just getting out of hand and we are raising morons by the tons in these big city's because of it.

When you see one of these inner city kids that breaks the cycle and works his or her tail off to be somebody despite being set up to fail, be proud of them.....they are Good Americans
