I posted a toon that got the response I was hoping for. Someone said it was "succinct!" I had to look it up ;-) succinct adjective;what is your succinct appraisal of our situation? concise, short (and sweet), brief, compact, condensed, crisp, laconic, terse, to the point,pithy, epigrammatic, synoptic, gnomic. - Somone else said "ouch" For a cartoonist that is a great compliment. The truth hurts.
To try to get a message across with few words. Successfully. The sad thing is it is TRUE.
Kids are gifts from God. We are their protectors, caregivers & teachers. Well.. not always true but- we should be!
They do not ask to be born. Instead of so many people learning from mistakes and trying to change for the better - they follow in the same steps on a downward spiral.
The victims are their own children. I see some parents and I just think those poor kids what chance do they have, what chance did the parents have? Well, we all have choices and they have to be made!
If your going to walk around with a butt hanging out of your mouth, eat a poor diet and abuse alcohol or other drugs and you have a child then you are selfish. If you chose to F*&^% up your own life - so be it. BUT a child - your own child? You should be ashamed of yourself. What example is that to set for a little human? You know booze F*&^%$#d you up so why not give your kid a chance? They are gifts from God. THE ULTIMATE GIFT.
They say your life changes forever when you have a child, well it should. FOR the better!
As much as I am drawing about cannabis education. This is really about Life. I know how important this is -Legalization- but there are things more important. Hunger. Child abuse, Homelessness... We can not continue to turn a blind eye, no wonder we are having so many problems with our children. WE are the gatekeepers if we educate them with words and love then that is the best chance they get in this life! The don't ask for it - they DESERVE IT.
