I can understand your situation and not putting a small animal in this type of environment. I think a lot of us are guilty of spoiling our children. We want to provide them with things that we never had. The teen years are very difficult. They were hard when we were growing up and now it is harder. Bullying has always been around but now bullying can be violent. I try to tell my high school senior daughter that you have to be so careful. Today boys will fool you that they care about you and plaster you naked all over the internet. We didn't have to deal with these kinds of pressures and embarrassment. We went through things as teens but nothing like our children deal with each day. Young people have to be so strong minded to survive. I will pray for you because I understand. I have a young adult son and I am still going through things with him. |
