My random thought for this evening...

[PaganJava]

In today's society, the government takes pride in it's laws and programs for protecting children in abusive home environments. If the government deems that a child is living in a home environment that is unfit, unhealthy, unsafe, abusive, or filled with atrocities that no child should have to bear witness to, they have the right and ability to remove that child from the home environment that is poisoning it's existence. But what will that government do when that child steps outside of the local home environment into it's global home environment? Will it do anything to save that child from the unfit, unhealthy, unsafe, and abusive environment outside of the home that is filled with atrocities that no human should have to bear witness to? Who will protect the children when the oceans are toxic, when there is not enough safe drinking water due to the chemicals dumped into the ground by industry, when the food is poisoned and unable to be eaten, when the air burns their lungs and the rains burn their skin, when the environment is poisoning their existence? The governments of Earth have a responsibility to their people to protect them just as much, if not more so than a child in an unfit home, yet on a much larger scale.

Agreed.

One better solution, I think, could be... a sane and loving person to go to that house and to see what's the problem(s) and help that family.

Sometimes...a stressed mother or father hit his kids.. and the stress come from economical situations... or from personal frustrations...

Other solution... would be... I don't know how to articulate it.. right now....

but... it's like if people understand... what the system have made to them... for example..... the system make people buy stuff... They promise them ur going to be happy if ... u have this product. Sometimes it's litteral, most of the time is with images and music...

"if u use this fragance, u will have these women"

"... if u... this thin, u will have these men"

Anyways.. If people understand they don't need most of the stuff... they think they need, they would be relieved on how many things they don't need to buy... So they would be more relaxed.

So that... they wouldn't be so stressed... and they would teach to their children.... the same... and... they could live more happy.

Can sound silly... But it is. I mean, it's truly silly, dummy, what the system does.. and how people feed the system.. without knowing they are in a system... and feeding it...

I know, there are so many .... reasons of why a family can be... unhealthy... and an unsafe enviroment...

I was thinking about the system before and I joined this 2 ideas...

But seriously... so many families live in stress because they are persuing happiness where is not.

Ah! if we wouldn't have to work so much... so many hours, hours that could be spent with... ur children.....

But is not our fault. The system is screwed.... The system is built like that... Most of the people working so much to have a good life. And few richs enjoying... that.

Once again... I know is not the only reason of an unhealthy family-enviroment...

But... thinking in what u said, kurt, ...it's like "yeah.. u goverment.. as if u knew more how to educate a kid... look all the mess u do, first".

Thanks for this post Kurt.
