Sorry, Samantha, I find myself wondering why you feel you are "entitled" to demand of a…Read More private agency that they perform according to your expectations.
Parents are responsible for feeding their children, not an agency, not the state, just responsible parents. Now it is a nice thing that private groups, churches, and certain charities sometimes help out.
But entitlement just because you demand it ? Get off my planet !

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of attending high school with Rick. I personally…Read More lost my husband at a young 46 years old over a year ago. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. We never understand why God seems to take all the good men first, but maybe one day we will personally see why. May family and friends give you strength and may you always cherish those sweet memories you had with each other. My deepest condolscences. Sheri Baughman Howle

Terrorists seem to strike in very big cities and/or at big events. I don't think anyone can feel…Read More 100% safe in large gatherings, marathons, parades, sporting events, etc. anymore. There is no complete defense against terrorism-- finding out who planted the bombs in Boston will help us in preventing the next assault. Drive-by shootings and dealths by guns/handguns happen hundreds of times a week in the US anyway, but no one seems very concerned about this for some reason.

@ Janie... I partially agree with you... None can feel 100% safe anymore and that's sad but you have…Read More to live each day to the first and not let the terrors of the world stop you from sending functions... Than they win. But you're wrong about no one caring about the every day violence of handguns. For almost a year now the government has been having a debate about gun laws and gun safety... Though I may not agree with everything that's been said... We are in the process of turning this country around.... Get put there and vote- help make the difference

I agree with Jessica! I so hate what we have become . Our children can't play in their own yard…Read More without constant supervision . We have to be more watchful of our surroundings. Everyone is too busy to lend a helping hand to anyone anymore . We all need to take a step back and have more love and respect for one another . If we stand together we can make a big difference .

Do your kids ride the bus? Do you feel that they're safe geting off and walking home alone?
