Chicago has been the scene of the worst gang and drug related violence this year. Sadly, the ages of those slain have gotten younger and
younger, among the youngest being a 7 year old girl who was shot while selling candy outside her home. Tragically, we’ve all been witness to the slaying of young children, but what we’ve not seen is very young children becoming an active participant in the violence. But in Washington D.C., a six or seven year old boy is wanted in connection with a group robbery.
WTOP reports:
At 8:19 p.m., police tweeted that a black male, 6 to 7 years old, wearing a white shirt and black shorts, was wanted in connection with a robbery in the 4300 block of Nannie Helen Burroughs Avenue in Northeast. The suspect also was described as being 4 feet tall and weighing 100 pounds.

The book of IsaiYah 3:12 says that our children are our oppressor.
All this is apart of the curses that we are suffering.
If we come back to the father YAH through his MessiYah Yahoshua all these thing will come to a halt. We are a cursed people because we turned our back on the father and went whoring after other god like baal and jesus who is a false god.

Parents should be parents, My husband and I had 6 wonderful children. He worked 2 jobs to support and after the last one started School. I worked part time. So their fore I was the one that really raised the children with that being said, i was with them most of the time. They were punished, things taken ,talked too and whipped which didn’t hurt them. They all completed High School College and Trade School. When raising children you have to put God first and all of the above, with or without a man. Sometime parents are take away from children thru death or some other issue. So their fore who ever the care taker is, you have to enforce all of the above. When you have children you have to stop thinking of yourself all the time. They didn’t ask to be got and they are here so give them what they need including Love, Attention and Time . You have to be discipline children

Blacks has something always to say. Why can’t it be when 99% of Blacks are in jail and the Law in favor of Women.
When will blacks in this country wake up ? Women can never raise a child alone and I do not care how good that woman is period.

This is sad.This young child needs a strong Black father,to guide him in the right direction.This is why we need Black Men to stay out of The Unfair Jails and Prison Industrial System,and into the homes.Unequal dispensation of Justice that remains a problem in America Society…”Incarceration is a big problem in American Society,but it is even a bigger problem in The Black Community.The worst thing is that a lot of these Men are Excessively Punished for Crimes that may not have Warranted Such Harsh Punishment…This is True in Black and Latino Communities;more Prisons than Schools are being Populated from People in our Neighborhoods.[80%] of Men Killed were under the age of[30],a Large Majority Were Met With Lethal Force by Law Enforcement,although they were Not Armed,and Nearly All Were Black Males…According to Research from The New York Civil Liberties Union,in only The Three Months of[2012], of the[203,000]New Yorkers who were Stopped by Police,[89%]of them were Completely Innocent,[87%] of those Stopped by Police were Black or Latino…This Trend Must be Reversed.

true, he does need a strong positive adult male figure, but a strong positive adult female could suffice just as well, my mom raised me alone and i ve always known better, it just sounds like an excuse when women make this statement, as if they cant teach/raise/handle their male children. Most of these young mothers are 80s babies and had very little parenting themselves so the first thing they say when the child gets out of control is child needs a father, well what about you? what have you done to guide the child?
