Uvalde

My condolences to all the families who lost their loved ones during the Massacre in Uvalde, TX. I always ask the question, what caused that teenage boy to make the decision to go into an elementary school and kill young children? Where was he mentally? How can we prevent this from happening again? There is no one solution but we should all be more aware of what our kids say and how they say it. If they don't say much, then lead them in a direction that will allow them to open up. It’s easier said than done when you have a kid who doesn’t know how to handle their emotions. Disrespect, bullying, and neglect will make anyone feel sad and angry. Hopelessness, depression, stress, sadness, anger, anxiety are what cause kids to lash out in such manner. The problem runs deeper than what people understand but the earlier we are able to address it, the more lives we’ll be able to save. Don't give up! Think outside the box! The attempt to making someone’s life better can go a long way because it shows that you actually care.
