This a very short article as I just wanted to let everyone know if they didn't know or were unaware another college student is missing, even if it is in Virginia, it still does happen here as well. There is another link for live broadcast from FOXNEWS as well it is a bit more detailed. Why would anybody want to hurt a young one just starting their life? There could be many factors in the brew, jealousy of their life, jealousy of them not being the love in their life? Why why why? I just want life for kids to be simple but to this day it still isn't, and i doubt that it ever will be. People try and protect the world around their kids by not teaching them harsh reality of it and in someways that is a good things to never give up on the goodness that still does exist in some people but, in other ways it is bad as we have to make them aware of the evils in people that still exist.
I was protected by my parents 22 years ago and then I volunteered in the Army as a Military Police Officer to face another country and didn't have one clue what I had gotten myself into until it was all over with. And at that time I didn't realized how to deal with life and how much I had changed inside and grew up and how trust issues evolved as I was one that never gave up hope in others and in life. I now know that keeping my kids from the evil and horror of reallife can't and won't be a factor in their upbringing.

I did not know about the missing Virgina Tech student so that was a good article to write on. I am sure we will see more about it as the information develops.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sad story. Why do bad things happen to good people? I think that life is not always fair, or good, if it was, there would be no bad or evil in the world, and as we all know, there is. I commend you on making sure your kids aren't totally sheltered from the world. Children who are, as you well know, can often have a hard time dealing with life and stress as they have never had any experience with it.
ReplyDeleteI also was a sheltered youngster and although my parents kept me safe, after I left home for school there were several opportunities where my life was endangered because of my naive upbringing. I think kids should be exposed to the dangers of the world such as how to deal with strangers or alcohol or even the bad TV shows or internet sites (with parental supervision) instead of just keeping it away from them or telling them they can't watch certain shows altogether. I am glad you made it through your time in the Army (thank you for serving) and thank you for posting your response to this article.
ReplyDeleteThis is a hard thing to try and teach a child, but the reality is if you don't teach your kids about real world then someone else will. I want my kids to know what is out there and how to deal with it when it comes there way. I know I can't always be there for them 24- 7 so I just hope that what I teach them today will be enough for them to help them selves later.
