Over the past few day, numerous stories and article are being shared violence in the world. The story that affected me the most , is the one of a 15 year old girl who committed suicide because of a snapchat post. My first reaction is one of horror. Now in my mature years, seeing how tools being used to hurt others points to a greater issue. If we are community, we should do s bettrrjob of educating, elevating snd protecting our youth. Sometimes, protecting them even from themselves.
I admit the methods used when I was coming of age weren't always pretty. However, the intended result was to keep me underexposed and safe. If you or I do not protect them, then who? If not now, then when? My heart and prayers go out the this young girls family. Stay and keep each safe.
