gotta break the cycle. How can we do it?

Damn fine question. I wish I had the answer.

The raw truth is that there is "no answer"... as simple and as hard as that may be to accept.

We are human... we do the best we can with what we have... the rest is written in the stars.

As much as we try to understand or try to find reasons for the difficulties in live ... we cannot. We are human.

Life's joys, sorrows, successes, failures, accolades and humiliations are all part of our own journey... it isn't easy for any of us... especially in those indelible moments when overwhelmed by the pain of being unable to protect or comfort those whom we love.

We just do the best we can... we each do our part... tears and smiles both come from the same heart.


Blessings... :-)

Doesn't look like a high school year book photo. Mugshot? She seems unhappy. Hmmmm?

I hope this kid is found in time for Christmas.
She should be at home with ther family, but then,maybe that's part of the reason she is on the streets in the first place.
Someone needs to find out and help this poor kid!
Runner46 is right,break the cycle...and make the parents responsible for their chikdren, as they should be!!

Lets make the parents responsible for themselves first! Kids are not the only ones who need to know that you get what you earn. Regardless of your past, your parents past, your financial situation, YOU are responsible for YOU. Keep the booze and pot to a minimum, stay out of the hard stuff, take care of your own. There is a start.

I thought the first rule of life is to not tell other parents how to raise their kids. Don't ya gotta mind yer own business? How would you like it if someone stuck their nose into yer family's goings on?
