Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Suicide is a choice and I think if we work with that with kids, we'll get somewhere. ↗

Daddy was real gentle with kids. That's why I expected so much out of marriage, figuring that all men should be steady and pleasant. ↗

The country is making a big mistake not teaching kids to cook and raise a garden and build fires. ↗
