WorldWide Drilling Resource

59 WorldWide Drilling Resource ® MAY 2014 tem! Shame on us! There is much we as parents, grand- parents, or responsible community elders should be remembering, the added value to our young lives. Who made the greater impression? Which adult caused you to make wiser decisions for your life? Have you been a source of encouragement? Someone a child comes to when hope is lost? Do you advocate for them? Do you seek a source of rescue for youth in general? Do you have a VOICE into your local school board to ensure the values of your school of yesterday are legislated into the school system of today? That is the TRUE VALUE! IS IT FOREVER LOST? Who among us will DARE to restore it? If not you, who?...when? The youth of today are America’s greatest resource, let us invest in them!!! Invest...TIME...ENERGY...FINANCES ...WISDOM...ADVOCACY...LOVE. The statements and comments in this article are my own and are based on information and references believed to be true and factual. If you have any questions or comments, please forward them to me in care of WWWDDR . Let us continue next month.

Memory reminds me of a childhood which is vastly in opposition to a child’s of today. The school day was filled with classmates who became your lifelong friends. Bullying was never on display. Sure, the boys were boys with their schoolyard fights. All was over with the ringing of the recess bell. Today, schools have wrestling as part of the curriculum. Bullying is not only in the school system, and it engages both genders. Sadly, it extends into the social media via computer, cell phones, Facebook, and Twitter. Sometimes it’s a criminal act. What happened to a more innocent child- hood - wonderful memories of summer vacations eager to share when summer leisure days ended and we all returned to school? Should students find themselves in differences of opinion with teachers or faculty, the student body representatives were called upon to hear the students’ cases and place their findings before the faculty and administration. All was confidential, never public. Everyone won!! Much more humane than today’s school policy of “Zero Tolerance”. Parents and school board were seldom involved. Where is the positive child guidance in this reality? A child learns they are PROVEN guilty, judged and juried, and if lucky, discipline is in-school suspen- sion vs. out of school suspension. Never a FAIR chance of democratic representa- tion. What is taught here?A child’s value? Who is allowed to advocate for the child?
