It a Mad World

I would not want to bring a child into this world.

When children can not trust a parent to keep them safe, sheltered and fed; it's just a sad commentary on life in general.

I do not think it is going to get better economically for years to come, so we may see more of this happening as unemployment rises and the economy crushes the last bit of humanity from what used to be the so called family base.

The next generations will curse us, and I do not blame them a bit.
