Make a change in our communities!

[Heavy Heart]

I first came to this site back a few months back & I guess to say I was shocked would be a under-statement! From time to time I'd read a post or two & the thought of how scary these post are because this represents our communities & people we pass on the street,work with,shop with & probably speak to. All the ugliness & energy put into the posts let us know how times have really changed & so has the morals & values. Yes, I value my freedom of speech & we all have a right to that! Just don't cross the line & turn it into harassment! Be kind to your fellow man. Love thy neighbor. If you can't get along with some than pray for them! You can do a good deed each day, lend a helping hand, say something nice or pass a smile along the way...It will not go unnoticed!!! Let us as a community make a change, be the change! I get mad & hurt too at times but my Heavenly Father is always there to listens & help me. Try talking to him sometimes for he is faithful & a true friend! Sow a seed of kindness because you will reap back what you sow!

What has went wrong with this generation? I believe we need to instill good morals into our kids & respect for others.

yes i really think kids today need more respect. i ve noticed kids to say things like that old man or that old woman. kids today don t know how to appoligize for bumping into people. kids today have alot worse attitudes toward their seniors than when i was young.

From reading most posts on this site,I would hate to think this is adults raising up our next generation. It is no wonder so many don't have respect for anyone! People open your eyes & start with the one in the mirror & make a change in our communities!!! This stuff posted on here is mostly hate & degrading! Take the time & say something positive about someone. Not only will they feel better but so will you! Try it sometime...

I think this is the smartest post I've read in a long time!!!

I agree completely, and I think this post lets us see the breakdown of our society since government has stepped unneededly into our homes. We have no rights to decipline our children. It seems the law was brought in to help the children that needed it but, now it overstepped it boundaries and destroyed the morals of our future. But ultimately I thought this was a forum to voice our complaints and oppinions.

I agree. This is the most sensible thread I've read in a long time. I've read some of the threads on here only to find myself shocked at the lack of morals and values that are displayed. I too, could only hope this is adults on here displaying such behaviors. We are a small community in which everyone knows everyone and we need to pray for each other. As parents we need to teach our children not to be judgemental of others but to pray for them and try to help them. We need to teach them not to say unkind things about others and not to say or do things that might bring grief or pain to others. After all, no one knows what hand life is going to deal you and when you may find yourself in the same situation as others. All you can do is pray that if certain situations are presented at some point in your life, that God will help you to make the right choice. We all need to pray for each other and for your community.

I think this is a thread to keep going! God knows it just might hit a chord with someone & they might just get it about putting forth some effort on being a better person! Use this site wisely to inquire about things of importance not to be a hating place! Don't set back & let this community go down in ruins!!! Someone has to make a change!

[wise]

I will not give up on this community! We need to take a stand & make this a better & more peaceful place to live! Stop bashing one another on here!!!

I think this site may help the people of our community. Think about it alot of the things that people do that they thimk aren't noticed will be brought to their attention and the people that are so hurtful and disrespectful will see just what they look like in the eyes of others. I don't think this site needs to be shut down we just need to watch how we say things.

Do something nice for someone this week! It will start your holidays off right.

Kids Today are being Raised On Welfare and SSI....And there's a good chance....Their Parents were raised on it too...God forbid we leave to find work....let's just stay here....and suck the state dry....and teach our Kids to do the same....When shit is given to someone....they lose the concept of value on anything with any worth...especially Respect....Morals....Life....F riends or Family....And believe it or not....they don't think very highly of Old people either....

[Know What]

Little children can't help the circumstances they are raised in but they can and should be taught to spread their wings and fly.Just because the parents are on welfare doesn't mean they have to continue their adult lives on it.Kids are and will be what they are taught and it starts at home with the parents teaching them they can do and become whatever they choose and the sky is the limit..It is our obligations as parents and educators to teach them well.
