Inspiring and Awesome News About Some Really Inspiring an Awesome Kids!

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB)  A local mother says she tried to punish her son by making him mow lawns for free. But it backfired -- he enjoyed it.' Now, it has turned into a community service project for a group of teens. "That's originally how it started. Punishment. And he loved it!" Barbara Wilson said.   Her discipline plan for her son Travis Durham backfired. "(I told him to) go cut a couple of our neighbors' yards, and when I got home, he had cut eight yards, front and back. He loves doing it," Wilson said. Durham wanted to continue and got his two brothers and cousin on board. "We're doing it for the community, (for) people who can't get out and do it," Durham said. "And I got my brothers involved because I kind of showed them and told them the good effects."

Make Them Pay For Their Own Actions!

Image
NO! I don't agree that parents should be the one to pay for their children's mistakes!   That's what's wrong with these kids now.  Somebody else is always taking responsibility for THEIR mistakes and poor choices!  Somebody else is ALWAYS to blame for little deQuan or little Johnny's idiotic behavior!  Somebody else is ALWAYS the fall guy when little Shaniqua or Barbara Ann get knocked up.  How about we STOP blaming the parents?  How about we STOP blaming everyone and their proverbial brother and sister?   How about we STOP giving these little law breaking brats every excuse to do whatever right here and right now?  How about instead we  Make these children...  FACE REALITY TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR ACTIONS MAKE THEM  PAY FOR THEIR OWN MISTAKES How about we do all the above  as oppose to what we've been doing?   How about we allow the children who break rules and/or laws to face ...

Update about 'Drop charges against transgender teen defending herself!' on Change.org

If you signed the petition, then you already have gotten this message.  For those of you who haven't, here's an update: Hi, Thank you all for signing my petition asking for the charges against my sister, Jewlyes Gutierrez to be dropped. More than 200,000 of you took action and the outpouring of support means so much to us! The Judge recently placed Jewlyes in a restorative justice process - this allows her and the other girls involved in the fight to work toward a resolution that doesn't involve the courts. Once she completes that program her charge will be dropped! Jewlyes was also nominated to be San Francisco Pride’s Grand Marshal! The SF Pride Celebration and Parade is the largest LGBT gathering in the nation. She is nominated alongside some amazing LGBT activists and would really appreciate your vote! If you'd like to vote for her, please click this link: http://sfpride.org/vote/ Thank you so much for your support! Best, Valerie  *~*~*~*~*~*~*~...

Please Sign the Petition! Drop charges against transgender teen defending herself!

Image
My sister, Jewlyes Gutierrez, is a 16 year old teenager, who identifies as a transgender female. Her gender identity has caused her to be a victim of taunting, harassment, and bullying by her peers.  On November 13, 2013, Jewlyes defended herself against three girls who were tormenting and then physically attacked her. This was captured on video and you can see Jewlyes trying to run away. The students involved were suspended but to our disbelief, District Attorney Daniel Cabral then filed charges against Jewlyes for battery - she's the only one charged. Jewlyes should not be charged criminally. Rather, this altercation should be the responsibility of the school district, who should take proper action and implement the necessary resources to prevent incidents like these from happening again.   One of the girls who attacked Jewlyes had repeated bullied her - even spitting gum in her face. Jewlyes sought help from the assistant principal in fear of her physical safety but th...

Honest Teens in New Jersey!

Image
Now for some Great News involving teenagers!  I love posting this kind of stuff!  Renews my hope for the future! From Wayne, NJ:  A broken lock led several young men to believe a store they were entering was open on a Sunday morning in New Jersey, but Buddy's Small Lots was supposed to be closed. Surveillance cameras catch the men doing their shopping and then searching for a clerk. They call out for someone to ring up their purchases, but they don't know the store is actually closed. The men end up leaving their money on the counter, take their merchandise, and leave. Click   HERE to read entire story!

From The WTF????!!!! Files (An Editorial)

"May you live in interesting times."      Though it's unclear where that saying really came from, it packs a bit of a wallop just the same.  Because we are definitely (more so than ever before) living in "interesting times!" More gruesome than any slasher/sci fi film, the daily news is a cesspool of horrific acts committed by individuals in the most god awful manner, for the most sickening lame ass reasons. Boredom or Just Being a Fuck Tard? The latest string of fucktard activity comes from Oklahoma and Indiana.  Both involving "bored teens."  Seriously?  You're bored so you go out and kill an innocent person and/or animal? WTF?! And you wanna know what's really bad about their excuse?  Sadly and sickeningly enough saying you're bored only ranks a close second to shrugging your shoulders and muttering I dunno.  Remember that excuse?  Anyone?  Anyone? So to ease your boredom you go out and kill innocents?   Well, ...
