Falling & Standing
“Violent kids …”
“Violent kids push schools to the limit,” is the headline in our local paper. (The Northland Age, Thursday, August 20, 2015)
Schools are looking for help from outside agencies to deal with children who are lashing out. But there is a lack of help.
Children are lashing out at adults and other children. They are also biting and throwing furniture.
Why are they doing that?
Here are the reasons given: The kids are badly damaged. They are scared of being hurt. They are angry with life.
Schools are looking for help from outside agencies to deal with the situation, but help is lacking.
I think all of us must be looking for help from the living God. With God there is no lack of help.
