I have suggested Adolescence to lots of friends and coworkers, especially if they have kids. I'm not entirely sure what I was supposed to learn or how I was supposed to feel afterwards. But this is my take:

This show could have centered around a variety of issues/crimes (overdose, rape, DUI, etc.) and kept a similar message. I think parents MUST be more involved with their kids and realize that there are too many outside influences these days to be on cruise control. Bullying has reached new heights for these young kids. And heaven forbid you make a mistake or have an embarrassing moment. It can be captured, shared and saved for eternity in a manner.

It's not a popular sentiment but I like that we get an up-close view of the perpetrator's family. It's very difficult for us to remember that sometimes a person just does something stupid or evil and it had nothing to do with his upbringing. His family has to suffer in their own way knowing that this will follow them always and that their son/brother might be gone forever. When a tragedy like this happens there's more than one person or family that gets destroyed.

Yeah, cause the money always goes where it is supposed to.

1. Define "white schools"

2. What will be the benefit?

3. You don't want to see the white folks celebrate this decision.

That never seems to work when the shoe is on the other foot though does it.

I feel like every year I am told that our kids are getting dumber and can't test well on much of anything. I'm also pretty sure that we are supposedly pumping more money into "education". I'm thinking maybe money ain't the answer.....but that's just me.

Another big pay day for the deranged.
