Black teenagers today are afraid of other black teenagers, not whites

The absurdity of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton is that they want to make a movement out of an anomaly

1 for "yes" and 2 for "no"

...when that's all you can say...

Pass this on to kids who might be around people who think it's cool.

NCSY is in the “business” of inspiring Jewish teens, but even we were caught off guard when 12-year-old Evan Pinchot from Chicago, Illinois inspired us with his beautiful rendition of John Lennon’s classic “Imagine” to help promote NCSY’s upcoming online fundraising Auction (www.NCSY.org ). To watch the inspiring music video version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcBCnWXoqU8, and to help us spread the word kindly forward this email to your family and friends.

For parents of teenagers: The Children's Bill of Rights

Poem to MOM

My daughter came home from school one day,
With a smirk upon her face.
She decided she was smart enough,
To put me in my place.

'Guess what I learned in Civics Two,
that's taught by Mr. Wright?
It's all about the laws today,
The 'Children's Bill of Rights.'

It says I need not clean my room,
Don't have to cut my hair
No one can tell me what to think,
Or speak, or what to wear.

I have freedom from religion,
And regardless what you say,
I don't have to bow my head,
And I sure don't have to pray.

I can wear earrings if I want,
And pierce my tongue & nose.
I can read & watch just what I like,
Get tattoos from head to toe.

And if you ever spank me,
I'll charge you with a crime.
I'll back up all my charges,
With the marks on my behind.

Don't you ever touch me,
My body's only for my use,
Not for your hugs and kisses,
that's just more child abuse.

Don't preach about your morals,
Like your Mama did to you.
That's nothing more than mind control,
And it's illegal too!

Mom, I have these children's rights,
So you can't influence me,
Or I'll call Children's Services Division,
Better known as C.S.D.'

Mom's Reply and Thoughts

Of course my first instinct was
To toss her out the door.
But the chance to teach her a lesson
Made me think a little more.

I mulled it over carefully,
I couldn't let this go..
A smile crept upon my face,
She's messing with a pro.

Next day I took her shopping
At the local Goodwill Store.
I told her, 'Pick out all you want,
There's shirts & pants galore.

I've called and checked with C.S.D ....
Who said they didn't care
If I bought you K-Mart shoes
Instead of those Nike Airs.

I've canceled that appointment
To take your driver's test.
The C.S.D. Is unconcerned
So I'll decide what's best. '

I said 'No time to stop and eat,
Or pick up stuff to munch.
And tomorrow you can start to learn
To make your own sack lunch.

Just save the raging appetite,
And wait till dinner time.
We're having liver and onions,
A favorite dish of mine.'

She asked 'Can I please rent a movie,
To watch on my VCR?'
'Sorry, but I sold your TV,
For new tires on my car.

I also rented out your room,
You'll take the couch instead.
The C .S.D. Requires
Just a roof over your head.

Your clothing won't be trendy now,
I'll choose what we eat.
That allowance that you used to get,
Will buy me something neat.

I'm selling off your jet ski,
Dirt-bike & roller blades.
Check out the 'Parents Bill of Rights',
It's in effect today!

Hey hot shot, are you crying,
Why are you on your knees?
Are you asking God to help you out,
Instead of C.S.D...?'

Send to all people that have teenagers, have already raised teenagers, have children who will soon be teenagers or those who will be parents someday OR ANYONE WHO'D JUST GET A LAUGH!

Bereft Left: Rock the Vote teaches teens to use sex in service of Obama

How many new lows can we have?

Does anyone really care about kids anymore?

Sexualization of children and teens may seem hip or cool as promoted by the secular-progressive agenda (which is counter to traditional values), but the outcome is not so nice:

After 14 years in decline, the birthrate for American teens ages 15 to 19 jumped by 3% between 2005 and 2006. Out-of-wedlock births for all women rose 7% in 2006, and about 40% of all unmarried women giving birth are in cohabiting relationships. -- National Center for Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. (WashingtonPost.com, December 6, 2007; Reuters, December 5, 2007, via Plugged In online)

Healthy, happy children are the result of good homes with caring Mothers and Fathers. Nothing good ever comes from promoting lifestyles that produce disease and dysfunction.

Having lived through the '60's, I can vouch that "free love" made women the losers and was a triumph for guys that wanted no responsibility for their own actions thus leaving a whole generation with the results of unwanted pregnancies and sexual diseases.

And as for protecting children once they are here, the most liberal states in America fight the hardest against laws protecting children from vicious child predators.

Teenagers And Cats

For all of you with teenagers or who have had teenagers, you may want to know what they have in common with cats:

1. Neither teenagers nor cats turn their heads when you call them by name.

2. No matter what you do for them, it is not enough. Indeed, all humane efforts are barely adequate to compensate for the privilege of waiting on them hand and foot.

3. You rarely see a cat walking outside of the house with an adult human being, and it can be safely said that no teenager in his or her right mind wants to be seen in public with his or her parents.

4. Even if you tell jokes as well as Jay Leno, neither your cat nor your teen will ever crack a smile.

5. No cat or teenager shares your taste in music.

6. Cats and teenagers can lie on the living-room sofa for hours on end without moving, barely breathing.

7. Cats have nine lives. Teenagers carry on as if they did.

8. Cats and teenagers yawn in exactly the same manner, communicating that ultimate human ecstasy -- a sense of complete and utter boredom.

9. Cats and teenagers do not improve anyone's furniture.

10. Cats that are free to roam outside sometimes have been known to return in the middle of the night to deposit a dead animal in your bedroom. Teenagers are not above that sort of behavior.

Thus, if you must raise teenagers, the best sources of advice are not other parents, but veterinarians!

It is also a good idea to keep a guidebook on cats at hand at all times...

And remember, above all else, put out the food and do not make any sudden moves in their direction. When they make up their minds, they will finally come to you for some affection and comfort, and it will be a triumphant moment for all concerned.
