If I Can Help

I think we all have opportunities in life; I am waiting for mine, like we all are. I have this dream, this big idea this hope and what it is is to start my own… foundation? or organization to help our youth. I kind of see it like a boys and girls club but not really. I have so many ideas . What are we doing (society) to help our youth at risk? I want more interaction more hands on more involvement more of a connection, and follow up. what our youth needs is for us to reach out to them, they are at such high risk today, So many cant ask for help them selves or even recognize that they need help, and I want to be there to assist in there change. For any child who feels lost or not wanted loved thrown away I want to help. Looking back at my experience, I had no help. The social workers I had did not know what I needed because, well, they did not show an interest. I had things written down and said about me and what kind of person I was but that was all false. They did not know anything; I had such low self-esteem I could reach out to them. Therefore, I felt I was ganged up on and when children feel that, way they act out. So we need to wake up and smell the coffee because our children wont change if we make assumptions and neglect what’s really wrong Calgary!- not just one city but all the provinces I think we can only blame our selves! Think about all the homeless, drunk, or just how many ” high risk” youths we have on our streets and why. We pretty much allow them there. Its time to snap out of it people how many of these places really make a difference? How many of these people said they were going to make a difference in our child lives. Change your outlook, and stop assuming and do it. Just read our newspapers people, start working together and get some ideas to REALLY help save our youth at risk
