Civility
I firmly believe that the route of violence stems from a lack of civility or "home training" as some of my relatives like to call it. We no longer have restraint in our society. Restraint is regarded as weakness instead of strength. We no longer teach that discretion is the better part of valor or that sometimes it's better to just keep our mouths shut or walk away. Many of our young people have no self-respect, hence, no respect for others. Respect must be taught. As someone who has taught in the public school system I can tell you that our young people are not learning these lessons at home.
There's a line from the film, No Country for Old Men, that says, "Once you stop hearing 'Sir' and 'Maam' the rest is soon to follow." How sad. How true.
The book Wrong time,Wrong place:
This is the subject myself and my 15- year old son often speak about
My sons are Blessed they have mentors that often help them in our church but often they dont want to share problems that come into their lifes, and thats when I'm stepping in because they dont want them to know about the problems they may be  going threw,  Our young men face alot and Adults have to step-up both men and women ,I even feel if male mentors are helping my son's then i should  be helping young woman  in some way. God Bless your programs Dr. Rich and Mr.Martin God Bless you we must
Help and encourage each other! thank you Mr.Steiner for picking such
a powerful subject god Bless you also.
