A dear friend and fellow colleague sent this email to me.
Please take the time to read this alarming message. And ask yourself what can I do to make a difference. The children are our future and we are their past. The present is in the gift of knowing that together we can break the cycle of destruction. Together we can recreate a new state of well being for our children to accept as reality. You are being asked to take action, and at least share it with others to help raise awareness.
Thank you,
Amy R. Beller, PhD., D.A.H.

"Hello, my friends
This is an email as which you have never received from me. Hopefully, you never will again. I don't want an respond its only to make you aware of an horrible situation which is occurring today.
Yesterday, my granddaughter was told in school (she is a junior) that a gang was coming to her school with GUNS to kill people.
She told my daughter she didn't want to go to school today because she was afraid. Yes, afraid to go to school because she may be killed. My daughter called the Police and was told; yes it was correct they had received this information. That they would have extra officers at the school today. (They already have one police officer there all the time as most school s do.) Robin, my daughter told the officer she was not going to send her children to school today. He replied, yes, that is a good idea.
This is the second time that Franklin has had gang member enter with guns. On that occasion, my other granddaughter was run over by one of the members leaving the school.
This will not make the news if there is not any shootings. I pray that doesn't happen.
I am so angry at what is happening to our Children. They are our future. Yes, because they are my grandchildren in danger but they could be your grandchildren. What are we doing as adult to protect them? Don't say to me that they have created this reality because it was us that have created this for them. We are suppose to be the protectors. Why are we not protecting. The school system is not.
Scott is an 10th teacher, and the teachers everywhere needs our support. They are the front line protecting our children.
Look around you, I mean really look around you and get involved. It doesn't matter how small just take the first step. Go to your school and volunteer just a couple of hours, this could make a difference. If you don't like that idea, start a safe place of the young people to come to feel safe for a little while. I know you can think of some-things to do, you are gifted and special people.
Share it with the children. Any young person. If you feel you don't have time, please don't tell me.
I have heard some many people say, I don't listen to the news, I stay out of the energy, I don't vote, and I protect myself.
Well, great continue to protect yourself but get involved before its too late.
Thanks, I feel a little better now but I'm still pissed off. I'm going to go and call the Southwestern High School and the YMCA/YWCA and volunteer. Hope to see you there. Joy"
