“Wild animals often do a much better job of caring for their offspring than we civilized and educated humans do. If we cannot keep children safe in their homes, how can we hope to make ourselves safe in the world?”
– Lee Grogg
Executive director of Ryther Child Center, an agency providing safe places and opportunities for children.

    I was going to reply with something funny, but this is a serious subject, and I feel very much the same way. It makes me want to scream at the way many parents have abdicated from their parenting roles so they can indulge in their own selfish needs. Not that we were perfect parents, we had our wild days too, but we always knew it was our responsibility to raise him. Actually, he has turned out to be a better parent than we were. :)
