[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We should focus on housing, providing mental health services and other holistic wrap around services for teens and the mentally ill.... many of whom are Vietnam veterans.

I heard someone on the radio mention they are a social worker and found teens who are committing the acts do not have food in their homes and are often unsupervised due to lack of proper parental care.

This country should be ashamed of itself for not doing enough for its taxed citizens.

Failure to care for everyone in society leads to these kind of outcomes. [/quote]

Are you suggesting that children should be removed from family and put in residential schools as Canada did with native children? DC has very generous benefits: housing, EBT, free metro cards, free school, free medical care. If the homes have no food that is the fault of parents and guardians, not "society."

Where are children to learn accountability if there are no consequences for behavior? Are you a parent, PP? Do you raise your children without consequences or boundaries? At what age, in your opinion, should children/adults begin to have responsibility for actions? Are you suggesting that age should vary by race? [/quote]
