What the Hell Is Happening?!??!

Scanning the headlines tonight and seeing that a 13 year old in Florida killed his younger brother because he "ate a dessert he shouldn't have" turned my stomach.

What could be worse than a sibling killing another over a stupid fucking DESSERT?!?!?

Actually there is something worse - the MEDIA!!!

Deeper in the story, there was a sentence that stated that the sherriff's department didn't know what the dessert was. WHAT? Excuse me?!?!? What freaking GENIUS thought that was even remotely revelent?!?!?

What an ass...

You try to teach your kids that things like this (unfortunately) are part of the world now. You try to teach them right from wrong, guide them, comfort them. Then some idiot puts a dessert above the fact that this tragedy happened.

It's a sad, sad world sometimes... I just wish that some newspaper editor somewhere had the balls to buck the trend one time and print GOOD news for a change. Maybe then, kids could have positive role models instead of the likes of Michael Vick and Britney Spears (among others).

Parents - hug your kids and tell them that THEY can make a difference in the world by doing good. You may not get the recognition you deserve by doing good, but it sure beats the alternative...
