Comment: LET'S RETURN TO Jesus!
Today's young people have not attended church at a young age; prayer was taken out of the schools in the year 1961; many are fatherless and being raised by single mothers. In sum, the sad reality is that the values they should have learned during their formative years, that is from birth to 8 years old and thereafter, from their parents and social institutions like kindergarten, grade school, junior high school, and high school, were taken from them, sometimes by our own public officials in the guise of "separation of church and state." Faith-based organizations and churches have to be involved in order to contribute to the education of our children. Otherwise, when these 15 to 17 year-old teens grow-up to become adults, they have nothing to restrain them such as self-control, self-discipline, knowledge of right and wrong, knowledge of good and evil, and understanding of what is lawful and what is reckless lawlessness.Compassionate intervention is needed. *
