Kids killing Kids


Everyday a child under the age of 18 dies from street violence. Parents are outliving the kids, and continue to bury their young teenagers due to street violence. we ask the questions why? There are many reasons why, violence is at a higher rate in the inner city and more so with minorities. It goes back to far to get into, but the out come of the history of minorities leaves alot of single parent homes, drug addicted parents and parents working 2 and 3 jobs just provide a roof over their family heads that the kids are left alone to raise themselves. With that they turn to the street at a early age and look for someone to care for them and they feel that being in a gang is like having a family..the family they are missing. Ultimately these kids drop out of school and by the time the parents find out, its too late they are drop outs, selling drugs and committing violent crimes.
