Traumatized Kids. Is this the America we want?

TRAUMATIZING OUR CHILDREN: A blog by a teen who witnessed the Colorado shooting last week details the horror of American school shootings: "I implored God, 'Keep me safe, keep my classroom safe, and keep everyone else that you can safe from this shooter. I know you have so much in store for me, please don’t let my life end now:'" https://medium.com/p/600fae77a5d7

The teen wrote a message for his family on his hand in case his body was found after the shooting. Is this the America you want for your children? JOIN US and make a difference - it is time for mothers to act
