Rocking

That’s most certainly a sad picture and sad caption….  I wonder too what the solution might be.

I love your description in the first paragraph, but am saddened by the children's words. Unfortunately, they're reflecting what they see and hear around them. Thanks very much for your kind comment on my post. God bless. Nita.

so many people do worship money I am not surprised. When I see the
amount of presents my Grandchildren receive at Christmas you have to be as strong in the stomach as what I am to eat the Christmas meal. LOL But seriously it is awful. Heaven behind bars is interesting, I guess all the adults he knows have spent time there behind bars.You would seem to have an enormous job ahead of you.

I do find these things saddening myself. I do feel there is hope though. I know plenty of people whose thought processes have changed over time.

Rector, its scary to hear things like this out of childrens mouths..
I shudder to think what my grandchildren (if any should come along) will hear and/or believe.....

It is very sad to hear or see this from kids. I agree with Sam it is a reflection of our society. Thanks for the read

Mammon (I suppose this is what you would call the god of money) seems be very powerful in our world. Here's wishing you more encouraging experiences.

I think it is a reflection of society! I must say I am amazed at their thoughts! I think the solution is to drop small fishes of thought in that vast ocean you allude to! sam
