Join the discussion about teaching youths better ways to care, accept disappointments and to know and accept the consequences for their actions. Be a role model to our youths. Guide them. Lead them. Support them. Lend a listening ear to them. Teach them the values of a caring and peaceful community. Educate them about the importance of an education. Let them see that they too have a chance in life. A chance of being the next great-ones. Remember that you may be the only one standing between them and their BIGGEST-MISTAKE.
