Quotations on Treatment of Children
“There is no trust more sacred than the one the world holds with children. There is no duty more important than ensuring that their rights are respected, that their welfare is protected, that their lives are free from fear and want and that they can grow up in peace.”
Kofi Annan
“If our American way of life fails the child, it fails us all.”
Pearl S. Buck
“Children are the world’s most valuable resource and its best hope for the future.”
John F. Kennedy
Hear The Children’s Cries As They Are Separated From Parents Seeking Asylum At US SW Border
I cry and pray for all…
Thanks to the media outlet Propublica, we have access to the above video. Please be aware that the sound of the children’s wailing as they are being separated from their parents seeking asylum at the US southwest border, are heartbreaking.
This is a new protocol that was started with President Donald Trump’s Attorney General Jeff Sessions with his April 6, 2018 memo. As per Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), the president can end this practice of separating children from the parents with one phone call. Telling the migrants to apply for asylum at the US designated points of entry is not a realistic direction as most peoples are being turned away. There are stories about peoples waiting weeks to gain entry.
As per international law, it is NOT illegal for peoples fleeing danger, persecution, war like circumstances, to ask for asylum.
Any other republican talking point other than the above…

Brothers of the Heart
Brothers of the Heart
by Regina Puckett
I read this eBook today. My review follows the book blurb found on Amazon.
“Mother Duck is quick to adopt Baby Kitten after finding him all alone in his milk dish. Little Duckling is excited to have a new brother, and even though the other barnyard animals laugh because Baby Kitten has fur and purrs while Little Duckling has feathers and quacks, the two brothers couldn’t care less what the other animals think of them.
Little Duckling wants to teach his new brother to swim but Baby Kitten is afraid of the water. He is content to sit on the riverbank and watch his brother swim until a summer storm blows in and floods the farm.”
This is the first book I’ve read from this author. The illustrations fit the wordage used on each page. It is refreshing to read about a Little Duckling that gets a brother due to his mother saving a Baby Kitten. Nice message in that, any human can be a brother or sister to another human. I found that with much encouragement, and a storm, Baby Kitten did finally sit atop Little Duckling, and they swam. After that, Baby Kitten was excited to learn how to swim. Kids need encouragement, too. I give this book four stars due to the book not being edited for eBook use.
