This just shows pure ignorance & the violence ain't gonna stop. The adults act like animals.
Teens behave the way their adult guardians behave
True Dat.
Stop letting your children go out at such a young age. That’s the real issue. Too many kids are out in these streets without proper supervision, guidance, or the attention they need. Children need love, structure, and someone looking out for them. We have to stop thinking that a 12- or 14-year-old is old enough to fend for themselves. These streets are not the safe haven they used to be. Our children need us to be present, involved, and intentional about protecting and guiding them. It truly takes a village.
It starts with the parents. You got ignorant parents raising ignorant kids. Idk if the things im seeing online about the young boy that was killed is accurate but claiming a gang set & talking gangster online & people's dead folks etc, ain't it. Its not the culture or the music. Its the parenting! Its the lack of discipline in the household! Its the amount of freedom & entitlement these kids have.
