I'm seriously getting so tired of reading and hearing about people killing or harming or molesting or hurting a child in any way shape or form. It makes me want to vomit when I hear about a poor innocent child who has never done anything to anyone get hurt because some sicko want to get his jollys off! As a Mom it make's me beyond angry! It's a sad sad world we live in where you cant even let your child go outside and play anymore because some pedophile might just snatch them up or you can even leave your child with a baby sitter without having them go through an FBI style background check because you might just be leaving your child with some one that's going to knock them around while your gone. It's sad. You just cant let kids be kids anymore.
I remember growing up and running all over the neighborhood with my friends and my siblings. I remember taking my little brother and sister to the park buy myself when I was 11yrs old and letting them do their thing while I did mine. My parents were never worried as long as we checked in and were home before dinner and the street lights came on. I used to walk home from school by myself after orchestra practice and then leave a note for my Mom (because the siblings were at the sitters) telling her that I would be home before dinner and I would leave the name of the friends house I was going to with a phone number. Hell I used to ride my bike to the Ice Cream store a few blocks down the road from my house by myself. I was all over the place. That was a kid growing up in the 90's for you.
Now a days you can let your kid even go out in the back yard without a freaking GPS tracking device stuck somewhere. Those fun family outing's where you would let your kid run a little bit ahead can be kissed goodbye! We no longer live in a world that is safe for Children. I live in constant fear that someone is going to take my child away from me forever, It is so bad that I actually memorize everything that my daughter is wearing before we go out. When we are at the store i scold my husband for not being by the cart when I have to turn away for even a second. when my daughter is in a shopping cart I always have some part of me touching her to make sure that she is still there. I get creeped out when a stranger even get near her, little old lady or not. I literally feel like that because my Daughter is now walking that I have to get child harness just to keep her close (You bet, I'm one of those Mom's)
Let's face it we live in a sick twisted fucked up world of perverts, serial killers, pedophiles, rapist, abusers, and just down right sick freaks. I know that they have always been there but has not one person noticed that it seems to be getting worse? There are thousands upon thousands of stories out there about people killing children, yeah so what if it's not your child just think about it could be one day. Be thankful that it's not, but still keep in mind that still that one child was still someone else's child.
The horrible fact in all this is that it's not always men but women too! Sometimes its even the woman's own child! Nothing hurts more then reading about a mother who has killed her own child, most people right these women off and say "Oh they had postpartum depression" what about the women that kill there 9yr old kid, do you think that's postpartum? I don't freaking think so! I remember reading about a Russian mother who threw her two boys off a balcony because they were getting on her nerves, On her nerves? REALLY? I will admit that more then once my Daughter has gotten on my nerves but that doesn't make me wanna walk up to the second story of my apartment building and toss her off the damn balcony! If my daughter starts getting on my nerves then I quietly tell her Mommy is going to the bathroom and then I getup and walk into the bathroom and take a few minutes to myself.
What it all boils down to is this, we have to basically hover over our children because they are not safe in this world anymore. Keep your kids close. You can never wear out the words "I Love You", because you dont know if that will be the last time you tell them. Kiss and hug them often even when they are teenagers. Treasure the little things, for they are most precious.
Love
