“my son/ daughter was a good kid”
“my son/ daughter never did anything wrong”
Some parents in the community need to be aware of the things there kids do outside of home for example… starting trouble with their friends… gang activity and etc .
Its not 1990s anymore, so these days Parents are still young themselves with no care or don't have any tools to keep their kids in line.
If your kids are good kids then they need to learn self defense because if they don't learn they could be in serious trouble one day. We live in a terrible world now.
@@knightclassic1 the only tools they use is neglection and then throw an iPad at the child’s lap. It’s like they shouldn’t have had children for something?
@@knightclassic1 Amen you speak only the truth👍💪💯. My son told me the same thing when he was 18 yrs old. He said mom - the very young are having babies and they do not give a damn attitudes about teaching their kids about kindness, respect, humbleness etc. So what do you think their kids are/ will be like into today's society?
@@triotrip7813 I agree 💯💪
Parents don't show up crying until after someone dies. But are cool when the kid goes there and fights everyday
Think the kids are bad .. these parents are the most degenerate.. alot of them should have not been allowed to breed as they are unfit parents
Only blm parents and kids sure
@@20891 just say the n word. u dont need to pertend its about 'blm'
@@20891 I hope you misspelled blame. And kids can be two face and lie.
@@dulce5616 you are genius congrats 🎉
The problem is the parents that dont discipline their kids.
Exactly.... when mine used to be in high school, there was these type of fights all the time, I never said to him to let someone hit him, but I did told him that is better to avoid problems, doesn't matter how right you think you're, because you think you're right, according to your opinion, I always went to drop him off and pick him up, ... not only because of the violence around the school, but because. these girls now a days are aggressive, losey goosey , ,,and that's something I didn't need, a random girl showing up pregnant, it takes the wind out off you, physically and economically with a 450 gasoline bill, but it is well worth it... now they're married... /... it pisses me off when relatives make their stupid comments like ( oh he's a good boy, professional and all) as if he had gotten there thanks to grandma's recipe's.... hell no, he's there and his sister is where she is because I was a tough SOB..... now they understand... because now they're parents... .
So parents and child rot in prison
@@d34thphp-x1- , Wishful thinking, go-to jail for a some time and come back out fresh like a cucumber... well no, parents are held accountable and hit with lawsuits and lose even the shirt on their back, I've known ppl that were rich, and bc their kid did something, now you see them collecting scrap metal or working at a factory for minimum wage , totally broke, I've seen teachers, landlords, politicians, cops.. even court judges...
and you KNOW this?
@@Blue-zx5mp Just a vision i got while drinking unicorn urine riding a magic butterfly
The sad thing is that none of these kids have realized that actions in a moment of anger can be devastating. They lack the maturity to see that whatever set this in motion will seem so small with time and self-restraint.

@@wakingupKosher I'm a Christian with a capital C. And even I know this is the wrong place and time do post that stuff. No one is going to listen to you randomly like this
Damn, she hit the nail head on. My parents would whoop me if I got in trouble. But they also taught me to have respect for others no matter the color of their skin or if they are man or woman or even what age they are. I was also made to play sports, learn instruments and do good in school. The world we live in these days are just horrible. 😔
Its a different day many parents do this and it still doesn't help
I'm just going to go by statistics, 75% of those kids in the fight don't have a dad in their home.
My mother also taught my brother and me to love and respect everyone no matter what the color of their skin is. We were all created by the same God.
@@mikehunt6179 now an days or a momma

Parental accountability should be a thing.
Sometimes, it's not the parents but the friends who are these kids biggest influencers.
Kids aren’t respecting their parents anymore, actors, athletes, rappers, musicians, educators, political activists and politicians have publicly promoted kids abandoning their parents and religion for a mainstream ideology.
It’s the culture, not the parents.
At least not in 90% of the cases.
This is why conservatives want to reestablish the family unit and put morals back on the table.
I wish it was. I bet a lot of the parents for those kids that were running around during the fight work double jobs just to pay for rent and bills and barely enough food.
@@spaceballs44 Hey agreed with that too, but unless you also lived in the suburbs, you'll see most come from a great upbringing but because of *boredom, they will come up with mischievous ideas(I.e. after finish watching a gangster film -"You know, we can grow our own gang out here".) Yeah, they are equivalent to like a Malibu's Most Wanted however there are tons of *nice neighborhoods that have these types of individuals. When you meet them, just laugh and shake your head.
@@troyf.9050 that just an excuse
Back in the 80's we use to fight head up one on one in the streets or in the grass. There was NO JUMPING NO WEAPONS. This generation now is scared to give a ass whooping or to take one. They are straight cowards. My deepest condolences to the family.
Cowards only use weapons to a one on one hand fight. Last month i saw two females fighting the one victim ended up getting a 3 small and huge slice on her face it was used by a blade by this suspect
You are so right
#agree
I agree 💯 PERCENT! It is so sad & very tragic that the society as it is today, is unfortunately 😪 a bunch of pussy cats But they are literally given no structure - they are NOT held accountable whatsoever for ANY OF THEIR ACTIONS - they have way less values and lack of morals then we had growing up. We where actually scolded or punished for any bad behaviors! And taught that those bad behaviors are not acceptable. Now of days ppl can't even try to teach their own child these day's no matter - because, us; the parents can get in trouble for scolding - even though your child's behavior is horrible. Sad.
You are telling the 100% truth!!!!!!
That is crazy. She was so right. It all starts at home. There is no way I could have even thought about being involved in a fight much less a brawl when I was their age. Parents are doing a terrible job of raising there kids to be outstanding citizens and human beings!!
Yep... these parents these days have no respect or will to raise their kids correctly. Anyone who thinks "correctly" is subjective, you're a fool.
More like hellywood raising the kids. Even with good parents the entertainment brainwashing industry has more control. My sister has changed because of Tik tok. I have Christian parents who raised us right but she is changing because of the secular influences
Ya are wrong parents ain't got no fault in why where kids come out bad af I knew more than one family that cussed and hit there kids,it was a fucked up living situation, daddy hit momm daddy
was a drunk,and the kid grew up a lawyer and has his own family,never treated his wife and children like his daddy treated him so no I don't believe parent have fault
parents today are to busy trying to be there kids friends and not there parents. This is to much in sad.
@@pamararobinson6651 Too much freedom and no rules and discipline at home.
It's not about filling their time with programs it's about teaching principles
we used to expel violent students
we used to put mentally ill students in a special school
we had no school shootings till the inclusion act in the 90s
Exactly. "Programs" seems like it's just a time filler...so they don't kill each other. Gotta change the mentality, and yes that starts at home.
Some programs teach principles in which a child grows up in a home where the parents don't know principles, or are absent. I work on the inside and see all angles. Yes, it starts at home but not all kids get it or have it at home and we need the true programs that instill this. I work in an organization and create the programs that teaches this...kids in class act up all the time because they are bored. There are levels to this!
As a student I will say that is apart of it. Remember programs like sports and clubs can build character and principles for students that they may not have at home.
And who teaches principles if principles aren’t within the, so called, teachers themselves.
All that needs to be done. It's to go back 50 years back where parents were able to correct the children without getting into trouble with the law. That's the problem. Plane and simple.
Bullying is the problem
Home schooling is the solution
Totally agree 👍
I agree
I agree 💯% but some parents won't even bother to teach values or morals to their kids
Let's go back 40 years, when as a family, we wer forced to go to church
evry Sunday, churches wer crowded, standing room only...now o days churches are out of business, hardly anyone attends, kids & Parents don't give a FUCK....that's the REAL problem!!
This happened at my kids high school in here in Texas a few weeks ago. Fighting in the bathroom and one student was stabbed and died. A week before graduation.
Actually like my mom used to say "it starts before it hits the womb". Right choices ladies for a man who can be a good father and help u raise ur children with social, ethical and moral values.
My goodness, when she said it starts at home, a chill ran down my spine. If these kids had parents like the ones I had they would not be hanging out getting into trouble. When School is out you better be heading straight home. Parents are failing their kids. Set guidelines, work they need to do everyday. they were called chores, I don't know if they still use that word now or not. After that it's homework time, then they take their ass to bed. And have a curfew. They say you can't hit your kid, yes you can. If and when they don't follow the rules of the house and want to do what they want, then put them out. If kids think their grown then make them prove it. Parents stand up and take your place as parents, if not it just might be your kid the next time.
@ Frank Woods”
You ain’t said nothing but the honest truth!! Yes, it’s definitely starts at home 🏠. When I was coming up my parent’s didn’t play that hanging out stuff with your friends, you went to school 🏫, did your chores, homework, & then to bed. On “Sunday’s” it was Sunday School, & CHUrch ⛪️. Sometimes we were able to go to our friends house 🏡, but my friend’s parents were just like my parent’s, before dark, they made us go home. When I got grown & got married, we raised our children the same exact way, I have som good children, never got in any trouble, never went to jail. These young children today, I just don’t know what kind of up bringing they have. They are disrespectful, they call grown folks by their first name, not Mrs. or MR. but as children we did, we better not call an adult 👩🏾 by their first name, without putting Mrs, or Mr” on their first name. Things were sooo much different when we were growing up. Now these children’s do what ever they want to do, & they are getting younger & younger, dying younger from guy shots or 🔪 it’s just awful 😢. This little 13 year old boy should’ve been at home 🏠. I hope he will be able to walk again, I’m 🙏🏿 for him & his mother.
The only parents these kids have is TikTok.
I condone heating your child as punishment; definitely got me to straighten my ways. But of course, with beating comes with caring, compassion, and apologizing afterwards. My grandmother taught me well.
@@chrisbacon5968 just don't heat them above 165° F. No one wants a well done child.
Putting your kid out is never the answer! Being a parent is love consistency and it takes both parents and extended friends and family. Ask for help over and over again if needed. Keep our girls and especially our boys safe. Don't kick them out, but train them properly. It starts at home. Do your job! With 💘
Everyone's about that life until someone dies . Then there crying.
Black privilege exists
Black privilege exists
Unfortunately this man's life dedication to help was literally unnoticed. 😔
Unbelievable that they hang out and fight all the time in this parking lot. Where is the parents accountability for their children. This is absolutely a heathen fest.
Yes, it does start at home. Too many parents have no business having kids, they can't even control and take care of themselves, and they refuse to teach or discipline their kids. It got so bad around here once, (just fights and shoplifting, nobody using weapons), the mall didn't allow anyone under 18 to be in the mall without a parent or guardian accompanying them.
The first guy says it because the kids have nothing to do. I think the lady interviewed afterwards hit the nail on the head.
This younger generation is so out of control. I’ve never seen such spoiled, entitled, selfish people than them. If that offends people-tough!! Discipline your kids, teach them respect, and watch who they’re hanging out with. Back when I was in H.S. we went to work or home after school, no hanging around a strip mall getting into trouble. And how do the schools react-virtual classes, let them all stay home today so they can grieve, poor babies! Kids these aren’t taught responsibility, at home or at school.
Look around and see how this world is turning upside down so fast! Just awful!
What a load of ignorant crap. Teen pregnancy and violent crime are down since the 90s. Look it up. Just because you have access to the internet and footage now, doesn't mean it didn't used to happen. Go take a nap, grandpa.
Spoiled? Entitled? Selfish? Sir, know what the fact are before you rant about nonsense. I am 21 and I am struggling with life rn and you know why? Cause you adults literally set the world on fire and expect us to fix what you've destroyed from the law, schools, government, money, education and then finally the country. We need people to luck up to and there are none honestly and this is coming from a person of the "younger" generation.
Well...that sounds...BIBLICAL!!!
This isn’t just kids - it’s the result of bad parenting. They need a good example to look up to, and proper discipline, and they are not getting that from their parents. Not to mention how many single parents are out there, nowadays, who split up and then don’t seek out a good life partner and spouse to help rear their children /or give them the financial stability they need. Now that is selfish to me.
I'm an 80's kid, I was a latchkey kid with my 3 siblings. NEVER, EVER did we do the crap these unaware kids do today. There were these things called CONSEQUENCES, REPERCUSSIONS, TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR CRAP YOU DID. TEACHERS & ADULTS ( not just your parents) could call you out on shit you did wrong without worrying about law suits, getting fired, going to jail, or being accused of Mental abuse because You can't be told NO! held Accountable, and Suffer the consequences. Today's kids, teenagers, adolescents, young adults, etc. Are
Disrespectful, Desensitized, Greedy, Lack Empathy, Lack morals, Inconsiderate, Lack Common sense, Uncaring, selfish, egotistical Zombies.
I find myself jaw dropped daily when I hear the conversations had by these Future leaders of America.
Buy your kids whatever they want, let them listen to anything, don’t let them be responsible, and never ever spank them ………………and you get this
💯
Yes sir!
Exactly!!!!
Not true
Dont give your kids foundations from religion or sports and this is what you get
Ridiculous. Where are the parents? Why are kids just hanging out in front of this shopping center? They shouldn't be allowed to just hang out. MOVE IT ALONG!
My sincere condolences to this family. My your child rest in peace. 💔🙏
Parents probably at work!!
You can teach your kids right & wrong til the day you die...kids are gonna act up!!..its the decisions their making when in these position
"We Are Stronger"
A Poem by Steven F Gooden
We're never as strong, as we are until we have to be. Never Do as much, unless the need we see. Only give our best, when we fail at mediocrity. We Love rather than hate when we admit we're one humanity. We always give more, when compassion moves our heart with unbridled generosity. We Become more of our potential when we are made to see, that clearly our minds can believe in unfathomable possibilities, while seizing every opportunity, here in lies one's destiny. More than our scars, higher than our stars, for in our flaws are what defines our features, they're uniquely ours, as human creatures.
We can run faster than on our slowest day. Reason better, and thinking it through all the way, regardless which direction our emotions may sway. We can find our voice when speechless, our strong words with meekness and our Courage in weakness. Always patience not quickness. Silence for peace than loudness, quietness of fear, not hopeless, for time and effort are equally unbiased. We are more than the stories we're told, we're the one's we write, each page unfold. We are the sum of our Lies and truth, fantasy, fiction, faith, and myths, no matter how uncouth. These are what shape us, our lives lived is the proof. We can be more right than wrong. More just than judge. More godlike than unlike. Reflecting Sunlight in our darkest night.
Providing refuge. Never more alive until we die within and begin again. A Human Ark Divine in our human spark.

When l was growing up we couldn’t even roll our eyes at our parents cause we got our butt whooped we were taught to always show respect towards our parents & other people. So we never got into trouble outside of our house. We went to school & our butt had to be home at a certain time to do homework and chores. Parents now just don’t have their kids on check anymore
The Flag the Stand the Reason, The Man ( By Steven F. Gooden )
No trifle stripe doest grace this Cloth
Each Band, each strand by blood, no froth
Whilst noblest battles do rage and grow
We stay the course for this we know
No cost for cause tis too much too pay
When freedom cries this too we pray
That men will rise, risk life & Limb
For, Family, Country but most for HIM
It's He who formed us by His Design
So for His Purpose keep this in Mind
All men, no matter how poor or rich
Great or not were equally stitched
Made in His Image, both mind and Soul
To perform His will for the good of the Whole
Kneel not for tyranny, in hate or Jest
Stand up rather, for 2 feet are best
Stand up give Thanks for those who cant
Those who've died to give voice to rant
Ever thankful for your rights by blood
Thus Use it wisely for this they stood
They stood and fell that we might rise
Tis Now our turn, our fight to realize
Freedom's cost tis always born in strife
It's price is life and Sacrifice
Remember and pause for all those before
They were first with less, did more
This Flag we salute, this idea we cling
It's for this idea we stand and sing
For No trifle stripe doest grace this Cloth
Each Band, each strand from blood, not froth
Whilst noblest battles do rage and grow
We stay the course for this we know
No cost for cause tis too much too pay
We answer freedom's cry and say
We all will rise, and risk life & Limb
For our Family, our Country but most of all for HIM
but most FOR HIM!
- Steven F. Gooden
@ Destiny Gil ... well said. Now, they would call it child abuse. So if it's child abuse (by law) and you cannot discipline your child/children, then we can point our fingers on who exactly is to be blamed.
Actually, abuse starts when kids learn it's okay from their parents, "friends", tv shows, music, etc. More than half the reason I don't talk to my parents is because of how they believe that they could treat me. Then they wonder why I still don't speak with them, or trust them, due to their beliefs in that area today. Kids don't need a beating, they need correction and direction. They need a parent to talk to, who will listen to what they are going through, acknowledge it and respond to it in a healthy way. Going straight to a beating?... Who is the adult here? We can do better than that. We are better than that.
Then why did none of this nonsense start until the "beatings" stopped. I have seen many kids who have wonderful parents that don't spank do awful things. Most of the parents that do spank have more polite and respectful children. Nothing motivates more than fear.
The question is what did you do? To get beat?
@@staylifejamie7405 Long story short? Everyday mistakes that a normal young child would make. Spilt milk, ran in the hall, etc. As a parent myself. I now realize the complete lacking of brain cells my parents had/have.
They never read anything except their religious script, do no support higher education, self improvement and haven forbid we did anything in life better than them. We were basically their retirement plan (that failed miserably as no on stayed) and they are narcissists. I had no help with anything growing up and even shoveled drives to buy my own clothes. I was the scapegoat, until I left and then the scapegoat was passed on and so on, until no one stayed. So there you have it.
Eventually I ended up being independent, joined the military, have a house and family of my own. My wife helped me with a LOT of areas and I read for fun/ explore areas of learning (gardening, making things by hands carpentry, etc) for fun. The difference is that I encourage that in my own son, never hit or name call, always pull to the side and explain what he did wrong, why it was wrong, suggest another task to do instead and reward good behavior only. It works amazingly and we have an amazing kid out as a result.
Give it a try. You may just like the results.
@@nissanrider1155 Everyone parents differently. Just because you throw out spanking/ name calling, it does not mean to simply neglect bad behavior. This is where the out of the box thinking happens and it takes a team effort.
Kids act up. It happens and it's natural. What's important is what the parent does next. Pull them aside,
Explain what they did was wrong/ why and remove a privilege for an appropriate time. Then spend time with them/ fill that void that was just taken, with real quality time. Put the smartphone/ tv down. Talk, and be there for your children, the way that you wanted someone there for you, when you were growing up.
Back in the day, we didn't have these cellphones and most of the time, people spend more time on these devices then they do simply talking face to face.
Spending quality time with our kids is seriously lacking in our society today. We can't expect to place a tablet/ game system in front of them and calling it a day to not have serious repercussions down the road. Not to mention, with the violence, etc and lack of content for kids in family fun/ play, in everything ranging from the mainstream music industry, gaming industry, tv, mass media in general. It's as if children have been forgotten about. It's extremely important to note what/ who they are being influenced by.
On the personal side, I have RUclips and Instagram, and only spend time on it when my family is asleep, or when I'm on the toilet. Other than that, it rests in my pocket or on the charger.
Maybe it's from being fed up with all of that time being eaten away? Maybe I don't need to spend every aspect of my life on social media or game my life away on a console. One thing is for sure, I spend WAYYYY more time with my family on a quality time scale and get a lot more work done as well.
Anyway, that's my take and personal experience/ observation on the matter.
@@thedoubleboiler6971 Hello. Sorry you had to go through thing as a young child. I am also glad you overcome those situations. I am also glad you meet your wife.
( I was a black sheep in my family ) as an adult now I realize my parents raise me the best they could of and same with my parents parents and so on. So I stop being hard on myself when I started having my own family. Because as we speaking now I am raising my kids the best way I can. I don’t believe in hitting. I believe in hugs and lots of talking. Thanks for listening and I hope you have a blessed day.
Exactly. Child development begins with the parents teaching their kids the difference between right and wrong. This is a reflection of the adults who allow thier kids to assault other kids
Praying for this mom and her family...
Pray in one hand and shit in the other and tell me which one fills up first 🙏 🙌
@@terryprust9604 I own a TV show and you are funny thanks for the laugh...
Kids know from an early age what’s good and what’s bad. This is a social behavior that is remedied by strict consequence. The knife welding murderer knew exactly what he was doing. I hope all involved pay the price
What a good guy trying to push positivity in the neighborhood. I also love the suit that reporter is wearing. Prayers for the family.
Damn 18 he didnt even get a chance to live life.. how sad !! Everyone involved in this should be charged. I cant believe they took his life. 😡😡
My condolences 💐 to Luis Hernandez family and friends. Unbelievable the evil around us.
Yes, but this young man chose to be there to fight others and, unfortunately, he didn't make it.
Yes charge them with accessory to murder so they lose their life 2. Good idea put them in the monster maker AKA rape and murder cage. Then they'll be well adjusted when they get out.
But the United States is big, right?
😂
My heart goes out to the family that lost their son. These kids have nowhere to go but we can send Ukraine $40 billion dollars.
Exactly
Same thing I said. AllDay!
nowhere to go? make em go home. parents should be held responsible as well.
No excuses the parents are thugs to
Ukraine getting $40 billion dollars has nothing to do with proper parenting of your children. This is nothing more than kids raising themselves with no consequences when they do wrong. My heart definitely doesn't go out to the family.
That kid throwing up gang signs probably would have been the next felon on the streets. So, life goes on.
This happened to one of my classmates when I was in High School. It was in 2007. 😔 His name was Alex he always had the biggest smile and would show up to Class without a backpack. He would turn around to ask to borrow a pencil or a paper when we would have class assignments. This brought back memories. So much life I have had to experience from then until now and now this soul won’t be able to experience any of that and for what. 😔. Sorry to all parties involved families hurt on both side.. 🙏🏽
While they were fighting no one shed a tear until someone died. SMH
The lady at the end was truthful and that is do start 1st at home...best answer online next to programs for children. Parents need to step up, stay off of social media and do something positive with your child or children by being involved [not a text message]. This fighting and killing has to stop, because the children has no future...it's over.
Amen.
I don't think the home thing is gonna work ,it might depending on the kid if he or she has the common sense but even if there was some parenting nowadays kids n teens all they wanna do is act up just to impress whoever they are hanging with.
@@chiroxxxrt facts
Why make that assumption? How do you know that person or people are two-faced and have a relatively good upbringing but likes to get into minor trouble.
@@pietrycranberry6621 Exactly. Alot of times the parents do their best, but peer pressure and wanting to be accepted by others is a bitch. A kid could act sweet at home and around family but his real side comes out when he is with friends.
So thats why people can say " He was good, he never did anything wrong", he was good at hiding it and they honestly never knew that about their kid.
There's nothing to be done unless the culture changes, and parents return to actual parenting 🤷🏾♂️ some fathers and masculine men back in these households wouldn't hurt neither.
Nah, men have truly moved on.
We wanted to be there for our kids but being manipulated and family court killed that.
Watched my father make that decision to fight, it almost took what life he had away
@@pro_154 💯💯 totally agree, an unfortunate truth
@@pro_154 Back up further. Don't go to bed with a woman you wouldn't want to marry. That way...you'll BOTH be there for the kids you made.
I grew up in a single parent family yet I know it's wrong to harm or kill... you get to a certain age and you know right from wrong so let's not make excuses, it helps no one and the wrong think they're the victim's oppose to acknowledging and being accountable for their bad behaviour.
@@pro_154 facts I've seen my dad fight to get weekends. luckily after 3 yrs or so my parents decided they could co parent. Sad part is all I would hear is how nice my dad is and growing up we saw it like my dad being a nice and helping person was a bad thing.
I've never seen such a chaotic fight in my life. What a crazy mess.
I send that man blessings strength and support you are an earth angel. We need people like you in high places.
When you took the rights of parents to chastise their children and gave the children the right to call police on parents, grandparents, etc, you started this problem. Give the parents back their rights because now too many people are scared of the kids instead of the kids respecting and obeying parents and authority figures.
Yeah right, more like when parents started taking drugs and womanizing became glorified.
That's a big reason why I rather have a dog...🤦🏾♂️
They want kids to act up so they can send them to prison and make money off them.
@Cherlyn. AMEN. Spot on.
Also single mother households. No father's in the home
“You want my honest opinion? It starts at home.”
I couldn’t have said it better!!!
It's true, it starts at home. Sadly, many parents can not be at two places in one time when they have to work. That's why creating school programs while in school and after school to help teens get involve in physical and mental activities , will help in so many ways.
It's not the school's job to raise these kids... it's the parents number one job!!! Bottom line!!! To teach respect!!! Hold the parents accountable!!! For not doing Thier fundamental bottom line job of teaching Thier children respect for others and life!!!
@@ginahall5053 Very true, and school programs while in and after school would also help.
It does start at Home!!! My prayers going out the the family that lost a child 🙏🏼🙏🏼
My condolences to this young man’s family. Parents need to keep their kids at home. The way kids behave nowadays is like they’re at home. It’s one thing to not have manners or discipline in your home. However, it’s another thing when you are out in the public. A lot of of kids lack shame and pride. I’d be embarrass to let everyone know my parent(s) didn’t raise me right!
Well, not a lot of shame but _definitely a lot_ of pride. They all think they're cool by being vile human beings. People have their pride in the wrong places these days.
Sadly, it ended with this tragedy..
As you can see. They own parents don't have controll of them sad. They use to tell me I was to protective over mines. Better safe than sorry. Never listen at none of them. Hate to say. Theirs either in jail or dead. I just pray for everyone. You could not be doing nothing. And trouble comes to you.
I agree
mama i m in Africa they out control even here its true it starts at home...people bash me and gossip abt me , coz im vocal to my children..
i Wil say NO loud wether they like it or not...then people say its Okwyyy no.its not
its not okey
She hit the nail right on the head, anger, have to see a specialist to control it, STOP, following others, stay with a gang, somebody will instigated things or look for trouble, don’t be a follower!
Right! I agree and say this so much! This is happening everywhere and these poor kids my prayers to the families
RIP prayers and condolences for the families and loved ones 🙏🙏🙏
The parents aren't being parents, no structure and failures of responsibility. No way in hell would my parents ever tolerate me and my siblings acting like that. I didn't ever allow my kids to do that nor hangout like that
The truth speaks its self. Like the comment from the lady. It starts from home. The way we raise our children, they do as they see. They do and they are taught. A child is born in this world to learn by a parent not by themselves. Unfortunately many are being raised by grandparents too who are sick so they raised themselves.
They say that until its a wholesome white family with that one kid who overdoses on drugs huh
I had nothing to do , was raised by a single parent and had little money.....and neither myself nor anyone I knew was like this. Hopefully someday this will all be figured out and talked about honestly.
My Condolences To The Family
As a 15-year-old who goes to Alexandria City High School, in my opinion, this school violence has got to stop. Period. Because we've seen it so many times and it's sad that these kids, that are like my age, are doing things like this and it's not right. What that lady said was right. It all starts at home. Parents should teach their kids what's right and what's wrong and they should spend more time with them.
My brother goes there, I am in 6th grade at Jefferson Houston
@@ainetheawesomegirl1357 That's nice! I was a former student at Jefferson-Houston and I graduated in June 2020 when I was in 8th grade.
It starts with the violent thug culture and trying to be hard an gangster...u can parent positively and as good as as u can . But people will gravitate towards things Regardless of the parenting.
@@stevecarpenter2638 Yeah I was just thinking the same thing, you wanna stop this shit then start arresting the gang members and wannabe gang members but they won't do that because none of them will be white and it would be raysisis
@@stevecarpenter2638 I remember when I was in high school we weren't allowed to wear red or blue only if we were white though because the Mexican and the black kids who who played gangster in the suburbs mind you broke those rules and never got in trouble anyway... It's also the reason that the police won't flat out stop gun violence in its tracks by raiding gang hoods Because "that would be racist hyuck hyuck" Even though they know exactly where these hoods are and exactly who is from them and what they do
She said it correctly it starts at home.
“The rod and rebuke give wisdom, But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.” Proverbs 29:15
Honestly, I’m surprised the parents weren’t out there fighting with the students…
Never thought this would be the day, that I see my own city on the news like this. I have nieces who will soon be attending this school in the next few years or so.
Well I would suggest that your nieces parents does not send them to this school after seeing this kind of behavior!! Doesn't seem like it's going to get any better anytime soon or ever!!
This is the work of the domestic terrorist group BLM wild animals for you. 🇺🇸 They see there parents acting like this during the BLM Riots.
the one gentleman that tried to comfort those two kids that were crying isone an amazing man that's just compassion that's the best I've seen so far with all these shootings and staffies that are going on God bless him God bless him!
My condolences to the family and friends
Sorry for your loss
very sad, only here for 18 years and gone, who ever did this if caught will probably do at least 15 - 20 years in prison and then there are there familys who will never be the same.
You don't know that... could've been self defense..
"Self Defense"(???)
This was an all out brawl between at least two groups whereas gang signs were allegedly traded before fists were thrown, those fists were mutual combat and the person that decided to pull the knife was the coward of the group taking it where it should not have gone smh.
Maybe if after school he went home and did his homework he would be alive.
@@dnizil32 I agree with you on almost everything you said... but are you saying there's no chance there could've been someone who wanted nothing to do with that fight? Or started getting attacked by someone much bigger and feared for his or her life? Or even better, just trying to break the fight up and got sucker punched or hit with something.. never know what could happen.. but all in all I think they're all stupid for being in that situation.. probably fighting over something very dumb anyway
It's certainly possible that there were kids whom were trying to break up the fight, however, unless there were reports of multiple weapons being used therefore evening the fighting field, I just don't see someone defending themselves by killing another kid.
Based on the information that we know with gangs being involved it seems that knife may have been used on purpose.
It’s because the parents are only 13 years older than the kids so they don’t know any better their damn selves lolgood luck America you’re gonna need
Praying for the victim and all kids as they grow up! That lady is so right ! It all starts at home . We need to pay close attention to our kids . We as parents are so highly responsible once we bring a child to this world 🌎! From the day their are born !
It shouldn't be illegal to bust your child's @ss when needed without Government intervention. A 3rd grader could be trying to set the house on fire, get popped for it and then go to school and say Mom/Dad hit me. Then the child is removed from the home. It's BS!
This gave me chills..just hearing this..wicked world! R.i.p
There is only so much the community can do especially with bad parents not raising their children, or abandoning them to stay with grandparents or other relatives.
I am so sorry For Family That They Had To Go Through Something Like This. I Wish This Would All Stop, But You Know When One High School Or Any School For That Matter Goes Through Something Like This It's Just One Big Trend That Never Stops. And When You Look At It It's Like Their Competing With Each Other.
These parents are too busy being friends and encouraging this type of behavior at home 🙄. I see it every day and know too many shitty parents doing nothing. Especially when it comes to school.
The parents are responsible to raise their kids the right way. That woman is correct
This is another reason to raise a person’s wages cause the parents are stuck at work to try to make it for the month.
My parents raised me well but that didn't stop me from smoking weed, skipping school, and getting into fights.
It's starts at home, unfortunately some parents are to self absorbed. They just think about themselves and are selfish, instead of thinking about raising their child.
Agreed 💯
So sad to hear this, prayers.
Poor ignorance is all I just saw from them kids. That lady at the end hit it spot on. Parents do need to be involved with their kids. It's ridiculous, when I was a kid you found crap to do and it didn't involve illegal activities. It's a p I s s poor excuse to say oh well they don't have nothing to do no programs and blah blah blah, h e l l back in my day there wasn't all the things kids have now a days! They have plenty to do! They CHOOSE to be ignorant and most of their parents don't got a clue. Sad for the victim but again what is that kid doing there to start with. Like come on!! So tried of the excuses. They can join school sports they can GET A SUMMER JOB, get involved in a volunteer program , the ideas are endless. So ignorant.
SHE SAID IT...IT STARTS AT HOME MAN EVEN WITH SCHOOL SHOOTINGS IT STARTS AT HOME!!
TERRIBLE!!! The mayor needs to do something. There’s been a lot of activity here. Stop letting the kids come here.
What is he suppose to do? How is he to blame for those students' behavior? Did you not hear the man say he's attempting to get the program to help curb the violence? The blame is not his. It's the parents and the students. SMDH.
Hold the kid and the parent that the kid leaves with accountable.....
Kids need good parenting and should be held accountable!!!
What happened to self respect? My mom used to tell me don't go out their embarrassing her whenever I went somewhere without her. And I'm just in my EARLY 20's so this wasn't too long ago. The lady is absolutely right, this all starts at home. Parents now a days are trying to be friends with their kids instead of a parent figure. It is soo sad that this happened to this young man especially since it was a activist for youth violence just feet away. Wow just wowww !! It's some scary times out here and I am a mother myself and I wouldn't dare let me child act out like this , like I mentioned self respect.
This is what happens when the government takes over as the parent we are definitely going backwards it's sad 😔
Damn the violence in today's society and the youth of today's society is on a whole new level of BS, you can't go anywhere without something happening what a shame, my condolences to the family of the student who lost his life, we've allowed the world to change so much we cannot raise our children the way we were raised it's saddening,
R.I.P. 💔
Parents cant do much.. you cant be strict or disipline your kids anymore without child services sticking their noses in , so now kids do what ever they want and dont care about consecuenses
First 45 seconds tells me everything. So it’s known that there’s fights all the time as explained, but yet law enforcement don’t pay attention to it. Blame the parents and law enforcement for not engaging an area that is known.
Great idea, blame everyone but the actual perpetrators
Yeah then if the police make a presence there and don't allow those little thug wannabes to hang out n harass and act like little punks bothering people, then everybody complains that the police are over policing and racial profiling and picking on my poor baby who aint never did nothin to nobody... Either the police should have done something or theyre doing too much. Bottom line is the police shouldn't have to spend their be days trying to keep groups of high school kids from killing each other.
Parenting is hard, but we all signed up for it when we had children.
Most of these parents aren't even trying.
IT STARTS AT HOME ! Well said and wise words !
My heart goes out to the family so sad and tragic 😢 😞
Hahahaha good riddance
Our kids are not in peace.
Diversity is 💩💩💩💩💩💩
Seems like y'all just watched instead of calling the police
My sentiments exactly. When I was in school, unless I was participating in after school activities, I had to go straight home and do as you stated. If not, there were dire consequences. The other thoughts that I will add, is that most homes unless there was a death, had both parents in the homes. Finally, first and foremost, GOD WAS IN THE HOME, AND EVERY BEHIND IN THE HOME WAS IN CHURCH ON SUNDAYS.
That's you not all of us did that and we're just fine
@@damien1781 Actually, the sate of affairs in the Country strongly suggest that "we are not just fine". However, I do recognize that those who think we are, support the premise that "you can't fix stupid ".
@@warrenscandrick2663 I'm 35 going on 36 I don't commit crimes and I walked home alone. My mother did something right... I can't help you new people are so narcissistic
@@damien1781 I am 69. I never walked home alone, or in life. God was always with me. Through College, Grad School, and a successful 39 yesr career as a Bank Executive. You can't tell a story that you haven't lived or written. My Mother was second to none. The narcissism began with your initial comment.
@@warrenscandrick2663 I apologize if it did but I simply stated I walked home alone because my mother worked. I wasn't priveleged to get a ride home or afford a bike. Probably why I over spend on everything now as an adult. Anyways god bless
🙏🏿 senseless killing after a fight
Shoutout for to that lady who called it like it is… it starts at HOMEEE! I hate the “my baby is innocent” yet you’ve instilled no morals in them
Thoughts and prayers to his family. 🙏
Terrible parenting is the leading reason why so many of these kids are lost to the streets.
Everybody is zoning in on parents and the parenting skills and of course there is merit there however let's consider that peer pressure wins over parenting first of all. You were a kid too you know this very well what you where prepared to do and how far you'd go to make yourself and your friends happy over mom and dad's decisions despite the consequences you'd face from your good parents. If you have children then you should be aware of and experience this especially when they hit teens. Also a lot of the craziest crimes have been committed by folks from what you would consider a "good home" so what does that say? And finally I know you all can't believe every one of those kids have "bad parents". Remember even good people fight too. How it ends as with any fight is what matters and sadly this rumble ended in death so S.I.P to the kid Luis Mejia Hernandez
I can’t tell you how many times my parents tried to keep me from doing stupid shit, and it just made me want to do it more. They tried to warn me, set restrictions, and I was a good kid (for the most part.) But that’s just it: peer pressure. Parents are highly responsible for this outcome, as is the peer pressure. Still, I don’t know how law enforcement, parents, school, etc. let these kids keep mingling and causing trouble. Of course it was going to escalate to this. People are always scared to take action nowadays until it’s too late. These kids could’ve been broken up and taken care of long ago. The area could’ve been swept clean to prevent this from happening. Wonder why..
@Lildickgirl it's a lot more complicated and complex than "fitting in"
@@poppimezo5443 right! We've all on some level disobeyed our parents even on a very very small scale despite warnings and consequences! It doesn't end in tragedy like this all the time obviously but the point is because a child didn't listen doesn't equal bad parents.
Never relax around Democrats. Biden = trash
Exactly!!!!
Parenting and cultural failure.
It starts with what kids are taught. You can have all the community places for them to go to but when they go home where negative teaching started it erases what they've learned elsewhere. We need to start trying to teach the older people. Not just younger.
Kids need to be held accountable sick of hearing parents say how good their little Johnny is kids are the weapon. They should be banned from society. Do the crime do the time
Sad, that’s a cultural problem going on across the country... we need stricter parents to control these mini thugs...
I agree with the lady at the end it does start at home. However, you have to trust that your child will do what they are taught when you aren’t in their parents present. We know what and how we teach them but we don’t know how they act when we aren’t around. These kids just don’t care, also there are a lot more parents that just don’t care then there are parents that do care. Which in return makes parenting that much harder.
omg so sad 😞 prayers
Very heartbreaking! Violence advancing from bad to worse and worse each year.
Sending my condolences 💐 to the Hernandez Family RIP Luis Mejia Hernandez
I totally agree with that young lady I always said it does start at home and can't express that
GOD PLEASE COMFORT THIS MOTHER, FATHER AND FAMILY MEMBER
only if they stop fighting they need to say SORRY
I am the 3rd liked comment
Respect for others is lacking at all levels.
