Observation

You wonder why the world appears such a mess? The following illustrates at least one reason. As the TV show once began, "only the names have been changed to protect the innocent."

K excels in school. He began his education at one of the city's best schools. He will graduate and go on to college. He works at those retail jobs available to teens.

K's mother married a man who fathered 10 children by several women. K and one sibling resulted from this marriage. K's father broke the law and now resides in prison.

K's mother divorced and moved. A relative's murder caused another move. K's mother married a man with a couple of children, one of whom lives with them.

One of K's siblings got pregnant and though she will not marry the man, she becomes another baby mama for a man who has four baby mamas already.

A member of K's family victimizes a tiny relative. Sometimes K's mother gets falling down drunk.

I know many of us want to shut our eyes and hope situations like this go away or pretend they never happen in the first place. Not my family therefore not my problem. Everyone owns this problem.

Love you Dude.

Laters.
