Swollen Bellys and Swarming Flies / Malnourished Kids In America

There is a class of starving / malnourished children in America. Their belly's are swollen from a deficiency of love, attention and encouragement. There is also a swarm of flies ( abuse, poverty,crime abandonment, battered and neglected kids are the swollen belly's of America(wandering in the mall, thousand yard stare on the playground, walking down the street gazing at the ground, HOURS AND HOURS OF COMPUTER GAMES.... just to mention a few, distracting them from becoming the confident child, productive adult,and the graceful senior who is able to walk into the sunset of life, able to feed those around them with sweet nectar from their life's experience that this world must have. We have the electronic games, computers, clothes .... but no love and encouragement This is why you hear a lot of "Shut up" and "Get out of the way" If this deficiency is not eliminated this will become the unproductive adult that fill our drug treatment centers and prisons at worst, at best this will become one of the million's unfulfilled,unhappy, confused adults , unprepared to do the inevitable "RAISE A CHILD".How can one who has never been fed a well balanced meal, sums up the culinary skills to prepare one.
The diet of love, encouragement and confidence is as necessary for the development of a child as are milk and eggs. This diet must be fed to them (bottle fed) until they are able to feed themselves. A child learning to walk must be picked up until he/she learns to get up. A child MUST be made aware of their strong points,talents or abilities. These let's call "strong arm" will be that by which they will hold the helm of life on course, they will pull themselves up from a fall or over a wall, knock out doubt, discouragement, loneliness, fear, anger etc...and most of all pat themselves on the back when reassurance is needed.
Now we have something to take the hunger away , the swelling will go down and the little one's can develope and be healthy. Next lets get rid of the flies.First one to identify this gift or strong arm is important (we'll call groomer) and must have that most important character of patience.Not looking for it but confident in what they're doing. Working with kids is not a training ground you get. You've got to make everyday count. You are splitting atoms, cutting diamond's, the future of a child at hand (TAKE YOUR TIME).CAN YOU GIVE A MEAL TODAY. EQUIP A CHILD TODAY...EVERYDAY.. Now that we have something to take the hunger away , the swelling will go down and the little one can develop and be healthy.
Now we are rid of the flies
