When me and my brothers were in our early teens, my mom recognized that if we kept living in that environment that my brother would end up seriously hurting someone n end up in jail. So she moved us out the hood and into a way way way better environment. There isn't enough words to describe how much I'm grateful to her for doing that for us. Especially her being a single mother of 3. She has always been up our buts making sure we are doing right, searching room, talking to our teachers, putting us in sports programs, showing up to all school n sport events. We might have had to shop at goodwill and get hammydowns. But I couldn't ask for a better Hero and rolemodle in our lives.
And the Music and Entertainment Industries who push Crime as a glorious thing, should be and need to be called out. There's nothing to glorify by ending up in Jail or The Federal Penetentiary or sadly, the Graveyard before One's Life truly begins. This goes for the Youth/Young Adults in all Races. There's nothing cool about being a fool, stay well and in School. A big Hug to All struggling Mothers and Fathers out there.
Yes if everyone will stand up and stay up help will come. Sometimes it comes from unlikely places when you show your serious and don't plan on backing down. Every action has a reaction and the current actions aren't working so something different is a good start
We need MORE black parents and blk ppl in general speaking open and honest about the state of our black community. We must quit protecting thugs and criminals in our community. I can agree that mass incarceration isn’t the answer but rehabilitate the ones who can and are willing and lock the others away for good if they can’t or won’t change for the better!
@sam griess Wow imagine looking down on a teenage minor who’s been a victim of Gun violence and has PTSD. You don’t even have the life experience to speak on that type of trauma. Looks like his Mom removed him from that situation to heal, and all you have to say is “problem parent”? ….If you got robbed at gunpoint u would cry like a bitch and go to therapy, obviously this kid felt hopeless.
@@KG-we6by blacks commit mass shootings also- it’s just not as publicized. Blacks shoot up schools, party’s, funerals, every damn thing. So don’t talk that nonsense.
finally a mom that actually cares and has common sense for her son. if your kid is mixed up with a bad crew get him the hell outta there. no matter what!
But instead of telling his mother about him getting robbed. He was about to shoot up a whole school and take out innocent victims as well. These teens don't have fathers and they are too emotional. They cant even think logically because the 1st thing they want to do is grab a gun to resolve the issue because that's what they see being rapped about. Her son could easily go into that new city and try the same hardcore attitude
I didn't give him an UZI. He was actually got tired of fighting and defending his safe passage to and from school. Who wants to keep being bullied, assaulted and victimized. Why didn't the school, mall, or mta police call me or reach out and tell me what happened to my son
1st of all our children have me and their dad. Know the facts. My son doesn't have a record and he wasn't being emotional. Let it be you to get knocked out from behind, threatened with armed robbery daily, and you arent even a participant in the problems. All you were doing is walking to the bus stop from school.
@@coolbabe1869 Thanks for sharing! This is real talk! The things, violence, in our neighborhoods, we deal with everyday. Some places are worse than others. People don't always have resources to move somewhere different. But to spare the life of a family, and to keep our children safe, and out of trouble, it's worth it. Whatever it takes to keep family safe, find away, do it!
My mom moved us out of NY in the early 80’s bc she was tired of losing so many friends to the Crack epidemic. That mom who said her son had a firearm at school is a REAL ONE. She’s not claiming to be a perfect parent but she did what she needed to do to fight for her son’s life! Her description of those other parents is dead on! So many parents are focused on theirselves and don’t know how to be a positive role model for their children. Sad.
@Noah Patterson this parent did...but it's rare..so many others need to be told or asked why they didn't do anything about their kid causing violence...when they know they have a bad seed. It's like they are proud of it. That's why this violence amongst our youth is so rampant....the result of neglect.
Absolutely I said 5 years ago that these young folks needed to be dealt with before it got bad…..?? Now look how they have taken over the world….??? I knew this was going to happen…..??? If they try to rob me they better think twice because I’m not having it!! If you cannot read/write get some education so you can get a great job!! Be careful what you do to folk because KARMA will get you really fast!!!! You reap what you sow!!!
@@sarcasticallyrearranged ya, the mom says that the 12 year old pulled a gun on her son too. Unfortunately that shit was only ending one way. It was just a matter of time.
I used to live in Baltimore and the greatest day of my life is when my job transferred me to another city. I had several encounters with parents whose kids were misbehaving but when someone attempted to correct the behavior the parents ran to the kids defense. My son was turning 12 when we left and he thanked me for moving us because he said he feared the very things this vid shows. He is now 40 and a successful business man.
Parents defending their behavior is a result of laws being passed that facilitate kids misbehaving. Corporal punishment removed from school, being allowed to sit down during the pledge of allegiance, ect. I was a substitute teacher for 4 yrs and kids were allowed to do whatever they wanted. Teacher left a note instructing me not to let this on student eat in class, she tried it with me and refused to put her food away after me asking here to several times. When I took it from her, she left the classroom to go and one of the campus officers to tell me to give it back to her. Another student came to school with shorts so short you could see her butt cheeks, when I told her she had to go home and change, the teacher's aide pretended to go to the office with her and the came back to the room with her still wearing the shorts. He tells me "it's ok." I could go on and on. Everyone blames it on bad parenting, but in addition to bad parenting, it's bad societal norms as well.
Exactly. I had to mace a moms boyfriend because their bad a×× kids were making trouble in front of my house. Then the same kids kept coming back to my house until I had to take more measures. They didn't come back after that. Lol.
@Noah Patterson she didn't let her son have shit. And when she got wind of it, she took appropriate action so fall back with that. You obviously aren't in these areas and see how as hard as it is to teach your kids right from wrong, they still are around things like this.
UNTIL, Black moves into "White". Stop Hiding behind "White". You Effin' IRISH-Scottish, SCANDINAVians. Polish/Slav. Italians. German, Greek. Youre all "Anglos". Whats YOUR Ethnicty "White" Boi.
@Noah Patterson ...Says the Dirrty "White" Boi. Stop hiding behind "White". Whats your Ethnicity? I KNOW your Father is Husatan....Mongol. Chinese. Japanese,. But WHO is your Mother? Effin' Irish. Scottish, Scandinavian. Polish/Russian etc. ITALIAN. German, Greek. WHY you Ashamed? LOl

As a mother disciplining your children starts when they are young it is up to the parents in this crisis by stepping up to the plate, knowing where your children are, knowing who their friends are and it starts at an early age because if you start when they’re teenagers, you’ve lost the battle! 🥲 lifting prayers for this community ❤️ It’s not the governments responsibility. It’s not the police departments responsibility. It’s a parents job!!
@@ElijahDavis-kk6ie I don’t agree with your theory sounds more like absent parents that you’re speaking about !! Children want nothing more than to please their parents!! Too many absence fathers 🥲
I am a black father. Enough talk, enough excuses. The single parent crisis in this nation must be addressed. Broken homes with multiple children born to parents who are mentally and financially unable to support their children need to be called out. It's destructive, and clearly untenable. There should be a zero tolerance policy regarding school violence and habitually disruptive students. If you do not have discipline you're outta there. Allow the students who want to learn and the teachers who are there to facilitate that do so in an environment where they don't have to worry about their safety,, and violent students. Invest in schools, invest in vocational programs so that the youth have realistic alternatives that lead to financial independence, enforce quality of life crimes, and lock up the criminals. No more excuses, if you're shooting up our communities and pushing drugs in'em, if you're robbing, vandalizing, and wantonly assaulting people you're going away. End of story.
True, the assault weapons need to go, but the problem isn't the guns. It's a single parent and absent father crisis. Our system currently allows women to pop out babies with little to no accountability. I believe there needs to be legislation in place to give mandatory reproductive surgery on women who have 3 babies out of wed lock and forced vasectomies to men that keep fathering these children that don't marry these women. That way, we can prevent irresponsible people from breeding. People scream and holler for abortion rights, but what we need is stopping the breeding of these monsters let loose on our society because of irresponsible people. That kid was a few years older than my grandson.
It has nothing to do with single parent households, a lot of these kids come from two parent households, kids to understand better decision making and consequences for their actions
I moved outta Baltimore as well. My son is 14. I'm not having that shit cause these kids parents are so immature I see where the kids get it from. Baltimore City is doomed.
@@strongmermaid4651 I'd like to know what the other side of the political spectrum would do to fix it. Other than saying that they're going to be tough on crime or increasing punishment, I've yet to see anyone who can actually fix anything.
I commend this lady. She is not in denial about about her own child or anything that’s going on around her. She had also recognized the need to move to protect her children and provide them with a different life. In addition to that she is reaching out to other parents. You can only help who are willing g to do better. Stay strong and woke ❤
My husband and I did the same thing moved our family out of Baltimore. Although my kids weren't getting into trouble at least 3 of them got robber with my youngest son being robbed at 11 yrs old. We left in 2017 and haven't looked back. Unfortunately eveyone doesn't have the means to leave so parents, leaders, and community needs to fix this so children can grow up in a safe and sound environment.
This is so tragic!!! Thank you 🙏🏽 Mom you saved so many lives by checking YOUR OWN child! Follow her lead! Your children are so being prayed upon! Predators are REAL!
@LMFAOAYADLclearly you being an ignorant racist, didn't comprehend that the boy with the ozzie was fed up with being bullied and wanted it to end and protect himself! His mother had the sense to stop another tragic school shooting and handed the weapon over to the police. Her son wasn't the one wrecking the community, he just wanted to protect himself and was fed up! Next time, listen and comprehend what someone is saying! Idiot!!
@@kathyflorcruz552 no I did not. I've been gone since February 28th. My son didn't even know Jaylen Richard's. Fox 45 edited this interview pretty choppy
Condolences to the victim. But I do ask myself, why would a 12 year old be outside at that hour. Family, keep your children safe at home. Watch movies, play cards, read books, have fun conversation; it could save your life. Please!!!
They’re all in the streets I could care less what happens to them, I only feel bad for the innocent citizens they affect. What the fuck are they going to add to society other than pain? Not a single person talked about in this video will contribute shit.
I’m glad this mother told the truth about what is going on in Baltimore City. This problem will never be fixed by law enforcement it is a community involvement problem. It blows my mind that this mother told the other mother about her son and nothing seemed to change. We can’t say that the mother did nothing because we don’t know that. But we do know that for her son to be so far gone at such a young age her son didn’t have a positive influence in his life from a very young age. The only solution for the problems in these communities is intervention from within. Mom and dad can monitor for guns, they can restrict freedom of movement, and the most important thing, they can redirect the focus of the child, influence and channel them into positive activities.
Totally agree. The only ones that can change this is the people in the community themselves, and some help from law enforcement. Politicians are allowing this to go on as well. Things are worst than it has been in decades in the community . People's behavior needs to change. Starts with education.
Stop blaming white people,white cops for everything,stop telling ur children that this country is racist towards black people, take accountability for urselves, black people have no respect for nothing or people, entitled people
@@AB-ComeLordJesus exactly, BUT when the schools attempts to discipline them, then here comes the angry wretched parents having a problem with it. So therefore nothing will change.
No one is expecting the school to discipline their children. They expect schools to educate the children. U know darn well any teacher discipline a child and it will be breaking news on every station.
So my son has never ever been in trouble. He doesn't have a criminal record. He has both I and their dad. This could be your child being scared for their life and not know what to do or believe you would understand how to help them.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I was just telling my 17yo wonderful son how i forbid him to ever go back to the US. Had to make hard sacrifices to protect my family. I refuse to send them to any school there or any area that may have a probability to take his life. This will never stop. Let’s face reality. 😢
Unfortunately that is most of the world, but if you mean this vile aggressive stupid mentality that's taken root in the hood community then you're right. We have problems to fix, and I wouldn't blame you for not wanting your son to go to one of those parts. I remember I went through the same thing the mother is describing, and my mom moved us the hell out of the city. There's a mentality that school is not important, especially parents who do not value education and they express this to their children. These children lose hope on the education system and look to other ways "to be tough" and "survive" in the hood. What ends up happening is another loop is completed of this senseless cycle, these children sensationalize being "tougher" than the rest and that's how these stories becoming even more shocking. A lot of places give resources, increase police presence, and have community areas, but have little to no impact on the culture that stigmatizes education and promotes violence as a valid means to solve problems (as ridiculously small as they may be). Of course, it's more complex and intricate than this, but this is the starting issue that gatekeeps these kids from reaching their full potential and hobbies in life.
The US is a big country. Not all places are like Baltimore, Chicago, NYC or LA. Your son is one of the lucky ones having a father who's involved in his life & future. That makes a huge difference. If you were living in the US, would you mind telling us where & what problems you ran into?
Please don't move your emotionally damaged violent child out to other areas, you would not like cancer to spread in your body so leave the sick were they got infected
I will say this, these mothers know what their kids are involved in. They know about all the street stuff they're doing. Some of them even engage with their kids on social media posts flashing guns, money, and drugs. This is a shame a young little boy died because of foolishness.
@John Brown The people that should care don't. They are more worried about whites and racism, instead of what's going on in their own communities with their own people... We don't hear about black on black crime on the news anymore, why is that? I feel it's because mass shootings get more views. Nobody gives a crap about the 100+ people killed daily in the US by all minorities. Fact is, African Americans are responsible for over 80% of those daily deaths. Nobody does anything about it...
Also the ones who are supposed to be raising them and choosing NOT to are not be held accountable either. They're absence greatly contributes to the downfall of their children.
There lies one of the problems. The justice system is letting people down. Now youth can go into shops steal goods and get no punishment. This is why Walmart and other retailers are closing their stores. It is bound to get worse
Finally people are starting to focus on the Parents of these criminals. I have been calling for new legislation that not only would hold parents accountable for the crimes that their children commit, but also jail parents. Its all about raising your children properly.
probably to ensure a retaliation killing with the additional 'benefit' of innocent bystanders in Hagerstown to ALSO become victim...gauranteeing an additional media coverage on said topic. The end justifies the means after all 🤷♀
If you don’t raise your kids, the street will raise them. It’s always been as simple as that. Mother and father in a kids life is 💯 necessary and it just isn’t happening.
100 % It's not lack of moral fiber that leads to a rising crime rate among black teens and young black adults. The real reasons are unwed black mother's having multiple children's, with multiple different partners, without moral standards or obligations of being a good nurturing mothers.
Even the best, most hard working and devoted mother can't do it alone. The destruction of the black family started when I was a child (early 1960s) and it was started with purpose and intention by evil people with power. That evil plan is continuing today and the target has expanded to the entire population, manipulating the people and turning them against one another over any differences. It's all orchestrated. I don't know how to fix it, except that I read a great book that said "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray . . . "
@@bondwin7025 But where is the man's responsibility in this? Everyone knows unprotected sex can lead to pregnancy. Where is the man's responsibility in this? Everyone needs to be accountable. Everyone.
@@bondwin7025 Are these mothers having babies with themselves? I think not! BOTH parents are responsible for how their child turns out or doesn't turn out.
@@bondwin7025 Are you one of those anti BW, who seems to think the onus lies on the women in your community? Do you not think some of the blame lies with the men also? BM can come on these talking points all they like, but the blames also lies with you
The problem I have is that the kids always move out of the hood and bring their criminality and negative mindset to smaller communities and good schools and poison them in the process. Turning them into the very communities they fled from. Gangs have destroyed so many towns and smaller communities. These parents move these kids out bad situations when they are 11-13 years old. By then, some of these kids are too far gone.
Truer words were never spoken. African Americans think they've left it all behind, only to wake up one day and find their crumbum kinfolk have followed right behind. Seen (seeing) it happen every day - once quiet, white blue collar communities where Black were not particular welcome are now experiencing drive-bys and the like. You just can't get far enough away from the city.
Repent Israelites all praise to the most high YAHAWAH AND HIS SON YAHAWASHI🤴🏽🦁🛸⌛️🔥 The so called Black man, Latino, and Native Americans are the Israelites. Yahawah chosen people Deuteronomy 7:6 “For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.” 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Ecclesiasticus 5:7 “Make no tarrying to turn to the Lord, and put not off from day to day: for suddenly shall the wrath of the Lord come forth, and in thy security thou shalt be destroyed, and perish in the day of vengeance.” Luke 13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. REPENT ISRAEL!! the kingdom of heaven is at hand⌛️
Yup cuz they pullup to a place where people could care less about “being bout it” and they use that as chance to be “super gangsta” compared to them meanwhile they not even small beans back where they moved from. And the cycle continues
They rely on the system for everything, even the system raising their child. There are people who should never have kids. You can see who doesn't deserve children by watching the parent on the phone while their child walks 10ft behind them or, worse, pushing their siblings' stroller while the parent is oblivious to the cars zooming passed at 40mph 3ft from the curb.
That's a real parent, most aren't willing to sacrifice or pick up and abruptly move to save their kids. I didn't hear her mention a man or excuses, she did what needed to be done for the betterment of her family. Anything worth having will be a challenge, struggle or a feeling of uncomfortable I hear too many excuses from parents, most changes for the betterment requires sacrifice, uncomfortable and the unknown. You can't blame the Major for Baltimore; he inherited a hell hole and Charm city expects him to fix it over night. Baltimore issues start at the home and until parents start taking accountability, it will only get worse. I'm to the point that, the only solution at this point is to relocate because it might be too late for the city.
I just said that same thing, that it's impossible to fix this situation unless the culture itself changes. No matter who is in office they're limited to what they can do.
What study did u review that said most won’t move? The study I saw shows most so move which is one of the reasons many Bw experience eviction. From moving to areas outside of their means in order to provide better opportunities for their children. So again please tell me what study u read that said most do not?
It Takes A Village!!! When the village isn't in place, chaos ensues. When parents refuse to cooperate with the village, children die. When children are disrespectful and not held accountable for being disrespectful, they either get murdered, injured, or imprisoned. The community MUST become the village again or this will continue.
Hold those parents accountable. Mandatory birth control should've been set years ago and family planning and parenting should be enforced when applying for any services.
Toxic marijuana, social media, trap music , disconnected parents worse of all the availability of guns, guns and more guns are leading to all this violence in cities around the country.
Why are these issues mostly in large cities with large minority populations and not an issue in the other 90 percent of the country ? Everybody has guns and drugs but its mainly one small group commiting most crime. Its the culture of the very people doing this. Duh!
@M A well how do you explain 65% of Caucasian youth ending their lives hunny? What is wrong in the culture? Why are they overdosing on drugs as well at more than 50%?.. there are issues I agree in all communities but come on down off that high horse darling like the other communities are raising elite citizens.
@@MA-yl1er Correct Einstein. Poverty creates criminals and crime. Add drugs and guns they become desensitized. Give em a little theme music with a social platform now there celebrity criminals. A perfect storm!!
How you get the parents to do their job is you enact a law where if there child commits a violent crime then the parents are prosecuted along with the child. And the parent is to be fined as well. If the child is younger than 17, then the parent needs to be charged along with the child, and should be forced to pay restitution to the victims family. That will cut out a lot of that with these kids.
You can't blame the parents for what their children do,, some kids are raised right and they still got and do wrong how do you make it right by charging the parent's for another person decision,, that's crazy? I don't see your point(with respect).
@@Brian--0311 my plan is, and remains the same how can you blame 1 person for another person decision,,? That's nothing to see there that should be changed" to do so is just madness" how can the law charge me for you stealing from the store what sense does that make?
Some parents are in the streets with their children or using their kids as protection.They’re scared 😱, I’m hearing this over and over. These kids are recruited to be in a gang, if they refuse they are violated repeatedly or killed. If you’re older than a teen and refuse to become a violent gang member then you are gang-stalked, harassed, bullied lied 🤥 on etc. so many people find it easier to go along than fight back against the entire neighborhood. Ppl are scared and they can’t fight ALONE. Help is needed for these young people and all ppl who are gang-stalked by thugs. Don’t give up… Fight back or die trying. 🤬🇺🇸
People really think it’s bad parenting. These children want to live the life they hear in music and television. Once a child cross the line of wanting to become an adult, there’s no turning back.
This right here is a great example of a loving parent whose crying for help. The fact she moved her kid out of that shit shows she’s a loving human and what’s what’s best for her kids just like anyone else. THESE are the black peoole I love and want to help
Blank stare!!!! If ur ppl get the phuck out of the way and stop restricting access and resources u wouldn’t even have to make this comment then to double down and say these are the blk ppl I want to help as if u are the gatekeeper of help! Lmao no one wants ur help! What these ppl want is equality and personal bias of others eliminated from their prosperity in this country! The nerve!
but that's just it you blacks are forever praising women, she only did what she SHOULD HAVE DONE, not a hero. work on building the men up, one by one, make men feel needed, important.
She's doing what's best for her kids, but what about the unsuspecting neighborhood that just inherited violent criminals? Her son brought an oozi to school with the intent of using it. Is that someone you want in your neighborhood, attending school with your kids? No thank you.
This is exactly why my husband (from Africa and I am Asian) packed up and left Chicago, and started life in the suburb 45 minutes drive away, after our first born was born. 42 years later, our two boys are not just alive and well but successful tax paying adults. I know of what she’s talking about.
It's very sad and definitely a crisis. I taught high school for many, many years and I can't even tell you the number of adults who would come into a school building trying to fight other kids about their own. Can't count the number of grown people who would use these kids to commit crime. It's an epidemic. When he said that there are adults who are failing to set examples, it is the truth. It may not end at home but it definitely starts there. Adults failed when we sent the message that there should not be consequences for their actions.
Adults failed long before that. It actually started when yt ppl intentionally went into our thriving communities and dropped drugs, guns, and started bullying and locking up local leaders. It expanded when all leaders were removed leaving the areas open for chaos! These kids parents more than likely didn’t have parents either and the blk community has been screaming about the results of yt interference for decades!!!! Weird how y’all eliminate the starting factors to roll around in the obvious results of said behavior.
You can put a curfew into effect all you want but that's not going to fix things. This starts at home with the parents. The city should not be raising your kids. And even with a curfew, gangs would still find a way around that. Like the mom said, her son was getting jumped, threatened, beaten up and robbed on his way home from school in broad daylight. Some parents either don't care that their child is a gang member or they condone it. The parents need to be held accountable at some point.
I relocated with my children last year. Things were getting bad and i wanted to leave before it got worse. We are happy where we are now. Beautiful safe neighborhood. Great schools. Please get your children out of these places!
I would also note that I have heard how some so called mother's speak to their small children and I'm talking about 1-4 year olds!! Cursing at them, threatening them with violence!! These children grow up with a grown feeling that if my own mom talks to me like that how can I respect any adult. It's absolutely a cultural problem that no money of money will help. There is no gun violence!! This is people violence!!! And it starts at home!!!
I've heard about how bad things have been since moving to Ga in 2018. My son was 12. God knows what mess he could have gotten into.... Praying for our youth ❤
Way to go Mom. That's exactly why I moved out of Knoxville, Tn. I had 2 sons and during that time the gang violence & racism was awful. I left when my sons were ages 2 & 1. There was NO WAY I was going to race my sons in that mess.
All the cities in Tennessee are an absolute mess with gangs feeding on single parent children who have to be left alone so the parent can work. They make the life and money look real good but it's a dead end. It's a real epidemic. I left Memphis but I'm fixing to leave Tennessee all together bc every city they have is infested. I grew up in a gang, my heart goes.out to these kids.isa trap that going to take their life. Many of my friends didn't make it out. Age 13, I went to 30 funerals.
It blew my mind when the mom in this video specifically pointed out that the other moms of these problem children were more interested in going out clubbing and partying than raising their kids.
This mother basically just spoke the truth about other "black" parents! And how they DO not care!!!! Ty to this mom for being pro active! If ur peers would only do the same! This would turn the tide. Bit it ain't gonna happen.
Parents…start with going through your kids rooms! Then their cars! Put AirTags on them…or track them with their phones! Call them sporadically and ask where they are. If they are lying….GO GET THEM! I have been there, done that….and got my son OUT of the garbage his “friends”were involved in. You should have seen their faces when I showed up out in the middle of nowhere!! The next thing I did…I contacted the parents of the others involved and told them if they didn’t get a handle on their kids, the next call would be to the cops. Thankfully, I had the other parents support and I have to tell you…EVERY ONE of the kids involved back then are now successful, productive citizens of society. Every last one of them STILL come to my house and tell me they hated me back then but are ever so thankful now because I got involved in not only MY son’s life, but theirs too! Please get involved in your kids life!! You brought this child into the world…it is your responsibility to steer them on the right path. So what if they “hate” you at that moment. It may spare you standing over their grave talking to a headstone…or visiting them through a glass window.
That lady hit the nail on the head, the parents of the troubled youth are more interested in partying are essentially ok with what’s going on. They refuse to prevent it because they agree with it. It’ll never get better until immature people stop having kids
This is the part they edited from what I said. I'm so over it!!! Just this past week, I saw a woman force her child to graduate from 5th grade. She held up the ceremony for at least an hour. Her child missed 72 days of school. How maam?
@@coolbabe1869 I’m so glad you moved your family to provide a better life. It’s a shame in 2023 people don’t want anything out of life but dysfunction and drama. I refuse to allow my family go near the hood, it’s just not worth it, these kids deserve a comfortable and safe life . Keep doing great things for your family ma’am.
I moved to Phoenix, Arizona from Portland, Oregon a year and a half ago because of random shootings and street violence. My son doesn't do anything that would lead to him getting shot but these days it doesn't seem to matter. They're shooting anyone. When I was a kid the only people getting shot were gang members and people going into the wrong areas. We miss our home but there's no way my kid is going back to Portland. He's 17 years old, a good kid, doesn't cause trouble but that doesn't matter these days. He graduates next month and I'm hopeful that he's going to the military. Safer choice than these streets and that's a shame.
I've been to Portland & Seattle and, yes, they are just "white man's version" (not to be prejudiced) of Baltimore. It's a cultural mindset trapped in the stone age. Every city nowadays is dealing with this.

For every shooter there’s a mother who thinks it’s other people’s kids that are responsible. The mother in this story pulled her kid out of Baltimore but is she just spreading the problem to other communities?
Parents are afraid of their children. There are hard-working parents out there trying to make it and the kids listen to the streets more than their parents. We need to look at our Children's Entertainment that is the problem.
@@carlalandrau6033 I agree there are hard working parents out there. The problem is they are not ensuring adequate and safe supervision for their children. Many of these kids struggle in school and in homes that often have violence and mental health. Many of these parents have damaged these kids and they will damage their children when they become parents. 🏌️♂️...🦴
@@Hancockst1 we have a lot of parents in the suburbs failing their children as well. They're all prescription medication / alcohol at a lot of their children are raising themselves but in a better environment We need to start becoming a more loving country and provide help for these family. A lot of this Behavior comes out of hopelessness, fear, lack of basic needs being met. This started in the black and Latino communities when the CIA and President Reagan decided to dump crack cocaine into them to find an illegal War . We need to provide better job opportunities/ education for their parents. Most of these kids out here hustling trying to help feed their brothers and sisters. I think welfare need to start doing inspections in these homes just like the during military and make sure those food stamps are going to feed the children. Just like in the military you volunteer so you should be subjected to this find the follow-up. The homes in which they live should be made livable. I'm sure you see how they have people living in substandard housing with holes in the walls rats and roaches and you think that they should feel safe and comfortable. Let's not forget all of these experiments that have been ran on these kids and their parents in these inner cities. Let's not forget the substandard education, Medical Care, drinking water and food sources that are in these inner-city. Let's not forget about the uncaring policeman, social services judges, healthcare worker, school system that these children and their parents are exposed to. It's easy for us to say get up and move most of those people can barely make it from one month to the next keeping a roof over their heads. Instead of so many judgments we should try some compassion instead of putting them in juvenile hall institutions we should put them in military boot camp. Where they will learn some integrity, self discipline, self respect, leadership skills and so much more. We all know that these juvenile institutions and prisons do nothing but make these people worse when they get out. We need them to help build character while they're in these institutions not become more vicious. People make mistakes with human let's try correcting the mistake rather than trying to make them feel like animals and therefore act in the same matter. This country is so big on punishing people instead of helping people. A lot of us sit back and judgment but we don't know what we would do if we would have to live like the children and their parents do. Let's try to be a part of a solution and not a bigger problem. Let's not forget their biggest problem corruption and their leadership police force, judges, housing and every other area in these cities.
@@Hancockst1 you do realize that these people are poor. Most of these for single-family homes and these women are working two and three jobs just trying to meet the basic needs of their family. Let's not discount these people who are trying to give their children a better life. Yes, some of them are very irresponsible and need to be given the help they need. In the inner cities it seems to be more of a systemic problem( legal system, Healthcare System, public housing system, school system, Social police force, judges coming down on the people from their greedy leadership.
Welcome to Hagerstown but please do not bring that criminal mentality here. Wish you well. 12 year Olds are still babies.! My heart goes out to the future. I hope you find a safe way to be here.
Babies? That remains to be seen... These poor children grow up so fast because of all that violence around them! Sometimes they are so used to it, that it is all you can expect from them. sad.
STANDING OVATION TO THIS MOTHER!!! When I lived there for 1 year there were 365 murders in the year of 2015. Thank God I moved out exactly 1 yr later. I never liked Baltimore smh.
I’m blessed in so many ways. I grew up poor but overcame poverty. My children have so many privileges that I never had access to. I pray for these families that cannot get out.
Poverty is not the issue even when you move to areas with money they have issues and problems to so I said that to say wicked and sinful hearts of man is the problem at hand. People need to turn to GOD/JESUS CHRIST, REPENT and ask HIM to SAVE their soul so they can have hope and safety in HIM in this lie now and, also eternal life when they die. Also, the BIBLE warns what will happen in the LAST DAYS before THE Rapture and JESUS CHRIST returns things are going to get worse. Please read your BIBLE, PEOPLE.
Discipline is lacking in a lot of these young kids. If children are caught selling drugs they get a slap on the hand. Grown men go to jail. And lady they got lot of kids to do their dirty work. Glad you moved and saving your family as best you can. Glad your daughter called you. 🙏🇺🇸and you to have the strength to move forward as you seem like a strong woman.
Ma’am I sympathize with you and fully support your efforts. You are an amazing mother think king things through and seeing the truth! This is a mom who dues tenant to see her son be a statistic. Do what you need to do momma. Those struggles will be worth it seeing your young man grow up safe.

These women would rather reign in hell, than have fathers in the home. No marriage, no care for the social or mental development of the child, its solely about the mothers freedom from having to compromise or be a partner with the father. Parenting in black culture has become just add water,, no fathers needed 🤷🏾♂️
It's about time they mention the parents be responsible to teach and raise their child/children. The community and church are not our problem that's their problem. The court needs to stop bail keep these criminals in jail or do a trade off from another country. This cuddling these criminals going back and forth to jail is ridiculous. Women need to stop having children, if you're not going to raise them probably with rules, discipline, guidance and values. Put the cell phone down and do a person to person contact with your child, so you can observe their facial expressions. Go to their school for a visit and talk to their Teacher and observe their friends. Get involved in your child/children life, before it's too late.
This woman is a earth angel!! She done what she could to protect her child and also exposing light on the situation for others to know about what is happening out here to the youth. Hat off to her.
I'm black and part of my motivation for college was to be able to live virtually anywhere I want. I raised my kids in the wealthiest enclave I could afford and now that they are going to college, I tell them don't go to any party or bar or picnic or anything with too many AA people. If it is just you and those you know, fine. Once a crowd of AA's you do not know arrives, leave.
When me and my brothers were in our early teens, my mom recognized that if we kept living in that environment that my brother would end up seriously hurting someone n end up in jail. So she moved us out the hood and into a way way way better environment. There isn't enough words to describe how much I'm grateful to her for doing that for us. Especially her being a single mother of 3. She has always been up our buts making sure we are doing right, searching room, talking to our teachers, putting us in sports programs, showing up to all school n sport events. We might have had to shop at goodwill and get hammydowns. But I couldn't ask for a better Hero and rolemodle in our lives.
That's awesome the way you honor her.....what a great testimony. Follow Jesus Christ, He will use you to touch a lot of young people lives
God bless your mother ten times over she is my Hero ❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Definitely need more parents like your mom.
YOU HAVE A GREAT MOM.
Go mom!

Yes if everyone will stand up and stay up help will come. Sometimes it comes from unlikely places when you show your serious and don't plan on backing down. Every action has a reaction and the current actions aren't working so something different is a good start
I'm so glad this woman got her kid out. Prayers for her and her family
We need MORE black parents and blk ppl in general speaking open and honest about the state of our black community. We must quit protecting thugs and criminals in our community. I can agree that mass incarceration isn’t the answer but rehabilitate the ones who can and are willing and lock the others away for good if they can’t or won’t change for the better!
Why can't these kids chill out and read a book or something.
Many ARE speaking out. EVERYONE is getting sick of this.
We need more Concerned PARENTS and people point bleak and simple.
Amen!
I got to go through one of those areas on the way to work and it's so sketchy.
The woman who took her son out of the city did the right thing. She is a good parent
She also prevented her son from committing mass school shooting 😮
@sam griess Black excellence!
@sam griess Wow imagine looking down on a teenage minor who’s been a victim of Gun violence and has PTSD. You don’t even have the life experience to speak on that type of trauma. Looks like his Mom removed him from that situation to heal, and all you have to say is “problem parent”? ….If you got robbed at gunpoint u would cry like a bitch and go to therapy, obviously this kid felt hopeless.
@@KG-we6by blacks commit mass shootings also- it’s just not as publicized. Blacks shoot up schools, party’s, funerals, every damn thing. So don’t talk that nonsense.
Nope. She's just spreading the crime and violence to another area.
This is a stand up mother who's really trying to save not only her son but other people kids as well...I really salute her💯❤️
Go look at her son social media before this she is in pictures and videos threatening other children!
finally a mom that actually cares and has common sense for her son. if your kid is mixed up with a bad crew get him the hell outta there. no matter what!
But instead of telling his mother about him getting robbed. He was about to shoot up a whole school and take out innocent victims as well. These teens don't have fathers and they are too emotional. They cant even think logically because the 1st thing they want to do is grab a gun to resolve the issue because that's what they see being rapped about. Her son could easily go into that new city and try the same hardcore attitude
I didn't give him an UZI. He was actually got tired of fighting and defending his safe passage to and from school. Who wants to keep being bullied, assaulted and victimized. Why didn't the school, mall, or mta police call me or reach out and tell me what happened to my son
1st of all our children have me and their dad. Know the facts. My son doesn't have a record and he wasn't being emotional. Let it be you to get knocked out from behind, threatened with armed robbery daily, and you arent even a participant in the problems. All you were doing is walking to the bus stop from school.
@@coolbabe1869
Thanks for sharing!
This is real talk!
The things, violence, in our neighborhoods, we deal with everyday. Some places are worse than others.
People don't always have resources to move somewhere different. But to spare the life of a family, and to keep our children safe, and out of trouble, it's worth it. Whatever it takes to keep family safe, find away, do it!
@@Brian--0311 she didn’t give him the gun watch the video
My mom moved us out of NY in the early 80’s bc she was tired of losing so many friends to the Crack epidemic. That mom who said her son had a firearm at school is a REAL ONE. She’s not claiming to be a perfect parent but she did what she needed to do to fight for her son’s life! Her description of those other parents is dead on! So many parents are focused on theirselves and don’t know how to be a positive role model for their children. Sad.
@Noah Patterson BOT she did and turned it into the police
I did take it and turned it in to the police and we (their dad and I) are in this as a family .
@Noah Patterson this parent did...but it's rare..so many others need to be told or asked why they didn't do anything about their kid causing violence...when they know they have a bad seed. It's like they are proud of it. That's why this violence amongst our youth is so rampant....the result of neglect.
We left in the 80's too girl. My mom wasn't playing with her girls lives.
I think some of the parents of criminal youth are the adult versions of their kids, making the issue with their kids unlikely to improve.
That little boy looked just precious. What a tragic story. We need to do something about our people in our communities!
He was already on house arrest and was a criminal. Nothing precious about him carjacking and robbing people!
Absolutely I said 5 years ago that these young folks needed to be dealt with before it got bad…..?? Now look how they have taken over the world….??? I knew this was going to happen…..??? If they try to rob me they better think twice because I’m not having it!! If you cannot read/write get some education so you can get a great job!! Be careful what you do to folk because KARMA will get you really fast!!!! You reap what you sow!!!
@@sarcasticallyrearranged ya, the mom says that the 12 year old pulled a gun on her son too.
Unfortunately that shit was only ending one way.
It was just a matter of time.
I used to live in Baltimore and the greatest day of my life is when my job transferred me to another city. I had several encounters with parents whose kids were misbehaving but when someone attempted to correct the behavior the parents ran to the kids defense. My son was turning 12 when we left and he thanked me for moving us because he said he feared the very things this vid shows. He is now 40 and a successful business man.
Sometimes , as parents, we need to be proactive and get involved. Cannot sit and hope the world to change for good . ❤
Parents defending their behavior is a result of laws being passed that facilitate kids misbehaving. Corporal punishment removed from school, being allowed to sit down during the pledge of allegiance, ect. I was a substitute teacher for 4 yrs and kids were allowed to do whatever they wanted. Teacher left a note instructing me not to let this on student eat in class, she tried it with me and refused to put her food away after me asking here to several times. When I took it from her, she left the classroom to go and one of the campus officers to tell me to give it back to her. Another student came to school with shorts so short you could see her butt cheeks, when I told her she had to go home and change, the teacher's aide pretended to go to the office with her and the came back to the room with her still wearing the shorts. He tells me "it's ok." I could go on and on. Everyone blames it on bad parenting, but in addition to bad parenting, it's bad societal norms as well.
You are a phenomenal man Jon!
Exactly. I had to mace a moms boyfriend because their bad a×× kids were making trouble in front of my house. Then the same kids kept coming back to my house until I had to take more measures. They didn't come back after that. Lol.
Much respect for this women. We really do need parents to step up like her.
@Noah Patterson she didn't let her son have shit. And when she got wind of it, she took appropriate action so fall back with that. You obviously aren't in these areas and see how as hard as it is to teach your kids right from wrong, they still are around things like this.

As a mother disciplining your children starts when they are young it is up to the parents in this crisis by stepping up to the plate, knowing where your children are, knowing who their friends are and it starts at an early age because if you start when they’re teenagers, you’ve lost the battle! 🥲 lifting prayers for this community ❤️

Praise to the mom who said my son has a uzi😂😂your a idiot
I am a black father. Enough talk, enough excuses. The single parent crisis in this nation must be addressed. Broken homes with multiple children born to parents who are mentally and financially unable to support their children need to be called out. It's destructive, and clearly untenable. There should be a zero tolerance policy regarding school violence and habitually disruptive students. If you do not have discipline you're outta there. Allow the students who want to learn and the teachers who are there to facilitate that do so in an environment where they don't have to worry about their safety,, and violent students. Invest in schools, invest in vocational programs so that the youth have realistic alternatives that lead to financial independence, enforce quality of life crimes, and lock up the criminals. No more excuses, if you're shooting up our communities and pushing drugs in'em, if you're robbing, vandalizing, and wantonly assaulting people you're going away. End of story.
Get ready to be called racist
True, the assault weapons need to go, but the problem isn't the guns. It's a single parent and absent father crisis. Our system currently allows women to pop out babies with little to no accountability. I believe there needs to be legislation in place to give mandatory reproductive surgery on women who have 3 babies out of wed lock and forced vasectomies to men that keep fathering these children that don't marry these women. That way, we can prevent irresponsible people from breeding. People scream and holler for abortion rights, but what we need is stopping the breeding of these monsters let loose on our society because of irresponsible people. That kid was a few years older than my grandson.
You said it loud and right! This has to stop!! These are still young babies!
BOOM! You said a mouthful sir!!
It has nothing to do with single parent households, a lot of these kids come from two parent households, kids to understand better decision making and consequences for their actions
It seems that some parents are more interested in their relationships than in their kids and it's sad and it needs to get better
I moved outta Baltimore as well. My son is 14. I'm not having that shit cause these kids parents are so immature I see where the kids get it from. Baltimore City is doomed.

@@WN_Byers broad brush...
I’m glad this mother told the truth about what is going on in Baltimore City. This problem will never be fixed by law enforcement it is a community involvement problem. It blows my mind that this mother told the other mother about her son and nothing seemed to change. We can’t say that the mother did nothing because we don’t know that. But we do know that for her son to be so far gone at such a young age her son didn’t have a positive influence in his life from a very young age. The only solution for the problems in these communities is intervention from within. Mom and dad can monitor for guns, they can restrict freedom of movement, and the most important thing, they can redirect the focus of the child, influence and channel them into positive activities.
Totally agree.
The only ones that can change this is the people in the community themselves, and some help from law enforcement.
Politicians are allowing this to go on as well.
Things are worst than it has been in decades in the community .
People's behavior needs to change.
Starts with education.

I refuse to send them to any school there or any area that may have a probability to take his life. This will never stop. Let’s face reality. 😢
Where are you from
Unfortunately that is most of the world, but if you mean this vile aggressive stupid mentality that's taken root in the hood community then you're right. We have problems to fix, and I wouldn't blame you for not wanting your son to go to one of those parts. I remember I went through the same thing the mother is describing, and my mom moved us the hell out of the city. There's a mentality that school is not important, especially parents who do not value education and they express this to their children. These children lose hope on the education system and look to other ways "to be tough" and "survive" in the hood. What ends up happening is another loop is completed of this senseless cycle, these children sensationalize being "tougher" than the rest and that's how these stories becoming even more shocking. A lot of places give resources, increase police presence, and have community areas, but have little to no impact on the culture that stigmatizes education and promotes violence as a valid means to solve problems (as ridiculously small as they may be). Of course, it's more complex and intricate than this, but this is the starting issue that gatekeeps these kids from reaching their full potential and hobbies in life.

@John Brown The people that should care don't. They are more worried about whites and racism, instead of what's going on in their own communities with their own people... We don't hear about black on black crime on the news anymore, why is that? I feel it's because mass shootings get more views. Nobody gives a crap about the 100+ people killed daily in the US by all minorities. Fact is, African Americans are responsible for over 80% of those daily deaths. Nobody does anything about it...
It's their life style and culture that is killing them. The ones who raise these thugs are not hold accountable.
Also the ones who are supposed to be raising them and choosing NOT to are not be held accountable either. They're absence greatly contributes to the downfall of their children.
I'm glad she called out other parents. Enough with pointing fingers at politicians and police, EVERYTHING STARTS AT HOME!
Its getting worst!! These cowards needs to be charged !!
There lies one of the problems. The justice system is letting people down. Now youth can go into shops steal goods and get no punishment. This is why Walmart and other retailers are closing their stores. It is bound to get worse
Exactly. She is right alot of parents are not vigilant, involve or even caring for their children the way they should.
Finally people are starting to focus on the Parents of these criminals. I have been calling for new legislation that not only would hold parents accountable for the crimes that their children commit, but also jail parents. Its all about raising your children properly.

If you don’t raise your kids, the street will raise them. It’s always been as simple as that. Mother and father in a kids life is 💯 necessary and it just isn’t happening.

It's not lack of moral fiber that leads to a rising crime rate among black teens and young black adults. The real reasons are unwed black mother's having multiple children's, with multiple different partners, without moral standards or obligations of being a good nurturing mothers.
Even the best, most hard working and devoted mother can't do it alone. The destruction of the black family started when I was a child (early 1960s) and it was started with purpose and intention by evil people with power. That evil plan is continuing today and the target has expanded to the entire population, manipulating the people and turning them against one another over any differences. It's all orchestrated. I don't know how to fix it, except that I read a great book that said "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray . . . "

Why would the News reporter tell us where her son is now living?
The problem I have is that the kids always move out of the hood and bring their criminality and negative mindset to smaller communities and good schools and poison them in the process. Turning them into the very communities they fled from. Gangs have destroyed so many towns and smaller communities. These parents move these kids out bad situations when they are 11-13 years old. By then, some of these kids are too far gone.
Truer words were never spoken. African Americans think they've left it all behind, only to wake up one day and find their crumbum kinfolk have followed right behind. Seen (seeing) it happen every day - once quiet, white blue collar communities where Black were not particular welcome are now experiencing drive-bys and the like. You just can't get far enough away from the city.

Yup cuz they pullup to a place where people could care less about “being bout it” and they use that as chance to be “super gangsta” compared to them meanwhile they not even small beans back where they moved from. And the cycle continues
Just like liberals leaving the blue sh.tholes they created to pollute good clean red areas
Facts 💯💯
She is right the parents do not care about their kids. They think their actions are cute and they support their kids acting crazy
They rely on the system for everything, even the system raising their child. There are people who should never have kids. You can see who doesn't deserve children by watching the parent on the phone while their child walks 10ft behind them or, worse, pushing their siblings' stroller while the parent is oblivious to the cars zooming passed at 40mph 3ft from the curb.
Omg I'm so sorry my son died when he was 11 I truly am so sorry for your loss I know how you feel 😭
Sometimes you have to look in the mirror.
That's a real parent, most aren't willing to sacrifice or pick up and abruptly move to save their kids. I didn't hear her mention a man or excuses, she did what needed to be done for the betterment of her family. Anything worth having will be a challenge, struggle or a feeling of uncomfortable I hear too many excuses from parents, most changes for the betterment requires sacrifice, uncomfortable and the unknown. You can't blame the Major for Baltimore; he inherited a hell hole and Charm city expects him to fix it over night. Baltimore issues start at the home and until parents start taking accountability, it will only get worse. I'm to the point that, the only solution at this point is to relocate because it might be too late for the city.
I just said that same thing, that it's impossible to fix this situation unless the culture itself changes. No matter who is in office they're limited to what they can do.
@Mike Howard That mother has the spirit of a champion. 🏆Wish she had male support, glad she took her boy out of Baltimore.
What study did u review that said most won’t move? The study I saw shows most so move which is one of the reasons many Bw experience eviction. From moving to areas outside of their means in order to provide better opportunities for their children. So again please tell me what study u read that said most do not?
It Takes A Village!!! When the village isn't in place, chaos ensues. When parents refuse to cooperate with the village, children die. When children are disrespectful and not held accountable for being disrespectful, they either get murdered, injured, or imprisoned. The community MUST become the village again or this will continue.

Stop being scared of your kids. Raise them instead of letting them run wild like animals.
Hold those parents accountable. Mandatory birth control should've been set years ago and family planning and parenting should be enforced when applying for any services.
Toxic marijuana, social media, trap music , disconnected parents worse of all the availability of guns, guns and more guns are leading to all this violence in cities around the country.
Why are these issues mostly in large cities with large minority populations and not an issue in the other 90 percent of the country ? Everybody has guns and drugs but its mainly one small group commiting most crime. Its the culture of the very people doing this. Duh!
@M A well how do you explain 65% of Caucasian youth ending their lives hunny? What is wrong in the culture? Why are they overdosing on drugs as well at more than 50%?.. there are issues I agree in all communities but come on down off that high horse darling like the other communities are raising elite citizens.
Dont forget NO ACCOUNTABILITY
@@MA-yl1er Correct Einstein. Poverty creates criminals and crime. Add drugs and guns they become desensitized. Give em a little theme music with a social platform now there celebrity criminals. A perfect storm!!
Marijuana has absolutely NOTHING to do with it , you must be retarded
Segregation is the only way now!😖
How you get the parents to do their job is you enact a law where if there child commits a violent crime then the parents are prosecuted along with the child. And the parent is to be fined as well. If the child is younger than 17, then the parent needs to be charged along with the child, and should be forced to pay restitution to the victims family. That will cut out a lot of that with these kids.
You can't blame the parents for what their children do,, some kids are raised right and they still got and do wrong how do you make it right by charging the parent's for another person decision,, that's crazy? I don't see your point(with respect).

Some parents are in the streets with their children or using their kids as protection.They’re scared 😱, I’m hearing this over and over. These kids are recruited to be in a gang, if they refuse they are violated repeatedly or killed. If you’re older than a teen and refuse to become a violent gang member then you are gang-stalked, harassed, bullied lied 🤥 on etc. so many people find it easier to go along than fight back against the entire neighborhood. Ppl are scared and they can’t fight ALONE. Help is needed for these young people and all ppl who are gang-stalked by thugs. Don’t give up… Fight back or die trying. 🤬🇺🇸
Ppl wouldn’t have to turn to Gangs if opportunities existed. The gangs only gain more power than government when the government is corrupt!
I don't think that people outside of those neighborhoods understand how many people are terrified of the gangs and are afraid to speak up.
Sounds like the African gang mentality in Haiti where gang crime there is hell.
People really think it’s bad parenting. These children want to live the life they hear in music and television. Once a child cross the line of wanting to become an adult, there’s no turning back.
Props to that mother that made the best choice for her child, more mother's need to open theirs eyes💯
@sam griess So you saying defending yourself makes you the problem. UNDERSTOOD👍🏾
This right here is a great example of a loving parent whose crying for help. The fact she moved her kid out of that shit shows she’s a loving human and what’s what’s best for her kids just like anyone else. THESE are the black peoole I love and want to help
There are quite a few Black people like that, lol.
@@DrBeeSpeaks - The 15%?
Blank stare!!!! If ur ppl get the phuck out of the way and stop restricting access and resources u wouldn’t even have to make this comment then to double down and say these are the blk ppl I want to help as if u are the gatekeeper of help! Lmao no one wants ur help! What these ppl want is equality and personal bias of others eliminated from their prosperity in this country! The nerve!
but that's just it you blacks are forever praising women, she only did what she SHOULD HAVE DONE, not a hero. work on building the men up, one by one, make men feel needed, important.
She's doing what's best for her kids, but what about the unsuspecting neighborhood that just inherited violent criminals? Her son brought an oozi to school with the intent of using it. Is that someone you want in your neighborhood, attending school with your kids? No thank you.
This issue isn't just about youth violence ; it is also black violence on each other.
This is exactly why my husband (from Africa and I am Asian) packed up and left Chicago, and started life in the suburb 45 minutes drive away, after our first born was born. 42 years later, our two boys are not just alive and well but successful tax paying adults. I know of what she’s talking about.
You found it relevant to mention your race ? Why
Our young man needs father.
They're doing crimes with them😮!
Accountability doesn't exist until it personally affects them. How are these kids having weapons and their parents don't know?
Good point, it's sad to see them waste their lives away. God help us
Thats been the elephant in the room for a very long time now. Mothers raise children, the father builds adults 🤷🏾♂️
Bless you momma. I know how hard that had to be. Bless you and may God cover you in all the blessings you can handle.
She is a good mom. Keep your son safe. Uprooting is not easy, she is a brave mom willing to take on what’s next to keep her son safe.
It's very sad and definitely a crisis. I taught high school for many, many years and I can't even tell you the number of adults who would come into a school building trying to fight other kids about their own. Can't count the number of grown people who would use these kids to commit crime. It's an epidemic. When he said that there are adults who are failing to set examples, it is the truth. It may not end at home but it definitely starts there. Adults failed when we sent the message that there should not be consequences for their actions.
Adults failed long before that. It actually started when yt ppl intentionally went into our thriving communities and dropped drugs, guns, and started bullying and locking up local leaders. It expanded when all leaders were removed leaving the areas open for chaos! These kids parents more than likely didn’t have parents either and the blk community has been screaming about the results of yt interference for decades!!!! Weird how y’all eliminate the starting factors to roll around in the obvious results of said behavior.
You can put a curfew into effect all you want but that's not going to fix things. This starts at home with the parents. The city should not be raising your kids. And even with a curfew, gangs would still find a way around that. Like the mom said, her son was getting jumped, threatened, beaten up and robbed on his way home from school in broad daylight. Some parents either don't care that their child is a gang member or they condone it. The parents need to be held accountable at some point.
FIRST OFF GET RID OF THE RAP MUSIC --AND THE HOES ON STAGE MAKING EVERYTHING ABOUT SEX.
I relocated with my children last year. Things were getting bad and i wanted to leave before it got worse. We are happy where we are now. Beautiful safe neighborhood. Great schools. Please get your children out of these places!
I grew up in Baltimore in the 70s and 80s. It wasn't the greatest city, but now it's so violent. I don't even go back to visit
BLM said theres too many White police officers in Baltimore
I would also note that I have heard how some so called mother's speak to their small children and I'm talking about 1-4 year olds!! Cursing at them, threatening them with violence!! These children grow up with a grown feeling that if my own mom talks to me like that how can I respect any adult. It's absolutely a cultural problem that no money of money will help. There is no gun violence!! This is people violence!!! And it starts at home!!!
Savages
I've heard about how bad things have been since moving to Ga in 2018. My son was 12. God knows what mess he could have gotten into.... Praying for our youth ❤
Might’ve saved his life. I moved down in 2001. Went to Morehouse and NEVER looked back.
Way to go Mom. That's exactly why I moved out of Knoxville, Tn. I had 2 sons and during that time the gang violence & racism was awful. I left when my sons were ages 2 & 1. There was NO WAY I was going to race my sons in that mess.
All the cities in Tennessee are an absolute mess with gangs feeding on single parent children who have to be left alone so the parent can work. They make the life and money look real good but it's a dead end. It's a real epidemic. I left Memphis but I'm fixing to leave Tennessee all together bc every city they have is infested. I grew up in a gang, my heart goes.out to these kids.isa trap that going to take their life. Many of my friends didn't make it out. Age 13, I went to 30 funerals.
No way that Knoxville can be as bad as Baltimore ,Memphis or Gary , Indiana.
She's a great caring mother..we need more like her..
What about who is the father?
It blew my mind when the mom in this video specifically pointed out that the other moms of these problem children were more interested in going out clubbing and partying than raising their kids.
This mother basically just spoke the truth about other "black" parents! And how they DO not care!!!! Ty to this mom for being pro active! If ur peers would only do the same! This would turn the tide. Bit it ain't gonna happen.
Parents…start with going through your kids rooms! Then their cars! Put AirTags on them…or track them with their phones! Call them sporadically and ask where they are. If they are lying….GO GET THEM! I have been there, done that….and got my son OUT of the garbage his “friends”were involved in. You should have seen their faces when I showed up out in the middle of nowhere!! The next thing I did…I contacted the parents of the others involved and told them if they didn’t get a handle on their kids, the next call would be to the cops. Thankfully, I had the other parents support and I have to tell you…EVERY ONE of the kids involved back then are now successful, productive citizens of society. Every last one of them STILL come to my house and tell me they hated me back then but are ever so thankful now because I got involved in not only MY son’s life, but theirs too! Please get involved in your kids life!! You brought this child into the world…it is your responsibility to steer them on the right path. So what if they “hate” you at that moment. It may spare you standing over their grave talking to a headstone…or visiting them through a glass window.
That lady hit the nail on the head, the parents of the troubled youth are more interested in partying are essentially ok with what’s going on. They refuse to prevent it because they agree with it. It’ll never get better until immature people stop having kids
This is the part they edited from what I said. I'm so over it!!!
Just this past week, I saw a woman force her child to graduate from 5th grade. She held up the ceremony for at least an hour. Her child missed 72 days of school. How maam?
@@coolbabe1869 I’m so glad you moved your family to provide a better life. It’s a shame in 2023 people don’t want anything out of life but dysfunction and drama. I refuse to allow my family go near the hood, it’s just not worth it, these kids deserve a comfortable and safe life . Keep doing great things for your family ma’am.
I moved to Phoenix, Arizona from Portland, Oregon a year and a half ago because of random shootings and street violence. My son doesn't do anything that would lead to him getting shot but these days it doesn't seem to matter. They're shooting anyone. When I was a kid the only people getting shot were gang members and people going into the wrong areas. We miss our home but there's no way my kid is going back to Portland. He's 17 years old, a good kid, doesn't cause trouble but that doesn't matter these days. He graduates next month and I'm hopeful that he's going to the military. Safer choice than these streets and that's a shame.
I've been to Portland & Seattle and, yes, they are just "white man's version" (not to be prejudiced) of Baltimore.
It's a cultural mindset trapped in the stone age. Every city nowadays is dealing with this.

Parents are failing their children and making other children unsafe 😔
Black excellence!
Parents are afraid of their children. There are hard-working parents out there trying to make it and the kids listen to the streets more than their parents. We need to look at our Children's Entertainment that is the problem.
@@carlalandrau6033 I agree there are hard working parents out there. The problem is they are not ensuring adequate and safe supervision for their children. Many of these kids struggle in school and in homes that often have violence and mental health. Many of these parents have damaged these kids and they will damage their children when they become parents. 🏌️♂️...🦴
@@Hancockst1 we have a lot of parents in the suburbs failing their children as well. They're all prescription medication / alcohol at a lot of their children are raising themselves but in a better environment We need to start becoming a more loving country and provide help for these family. A lot of this Behavior comes out of hopelessness, fear, lack of basic needs being met. This started in the black and Latino communities when the CIA and President Reagan decided to dump crack cocaine into them to find an illegal War . We need to provide better job opportunities/ education for their parents. Most of these kids out here hustling trying to help feed their brothers and sisters. I think welfare need to start doing inspections in these homes just like the during military and make sure those food stamps are going to feed the children. Just like in the military you volunteer so you should be subjected to this find the follow-up. The homes in which they live should be made livable. I'm sure you see how they have people living in substandard housing with holes in the walls rats and roaches and you think that they should feel safe and comfortable. Let's not forget all of these experiments that have been ran on these kids and their parents in these inner cities. Let's not forget the substandard education, Medical Care, drinking water and food sources that are in these inner-city. Let's not forget about the uncaring policeman, social services judges, healthcare worker, school system that these children and their parents are exposed to. It's easy for us to say get up and move most of those people can barely make it from one month to the next keeping a roof over their heads. Instead of so many judgments we should try some compassion instead of putting them in juvenile hall institutions we should put them in military boot camp. Where they will learn some integrity, self discipline, self respect, leadership skills and so much more. We all know that these juvenile institutions and prisons do nothing but make these people worse when they get out. We need them to help build character while they're in these institutions not become more vicious. People make mistakes with human let's try correcting the mistake rather than trying to make them feel like animals and therefore act in the same matter. This country is so big on punishing people instead of helping people. A lot of us sit back and judgment but we don't know what we would do if we would have to live like the children and their parents do. Let's try to be a part of a solution and not a bigger problem. Let's not forget their biggest problem corruption and their leadership police force, judges, housing and every other area in these cities.
@@Hancockst1 you do realize that these people are poor. Most of these for single-family homes and these women are working two and three jobs just trying to meet the basic needs of their family. Let's not discount these people who are trying to give their children a better life. Yes, some of them are very irresponsible and need to be given the help they need. In the inner cities it seems to be more of a systemic problem( legal system, Healthcare System, public housing system, school system, Social police force, judges coming down on the people from their greedy leadership.
call in the national guard and enforce a city wide curfew for these kids take back the city.

I’m blessed in so many ways. I grew up poor but overcame poverty. My children have so many privileges that I never had access to. I pray for these families that cannot get out.
Poverty is not the issue even when you move to areas with money they have issues and problems to so I said that to say wicked and sinful hearts of man is the problem at hand. People need to turn to GOD/JESUS CHRIST, REPENT and ask HIM to SAVE their soul so they can have hope and safety in HIM in this lie now and, also eternal life when they die. Also, the BIBLE warns what will happen in the LAST DAYS before THE Rapture and JESUS CHRIST returns things are going to get worse. Please read your BIBLE, PEOPLE.
Discipline is lacking in a lot of these young kids. If children are caught selling drugs they get a slap on the hand. Grown men go to jail. And lady they got lot of kids to do their dirty work.

When are the Fathers of these kids going to have an interview with the news?
These women would rather reign in hell, than have fathers in the home. No marriage, no care for the social or mental development of the child, its solely about the mothers freedom from having to compromise or be a partner with the father. Parenting in black culture has become just add water,, no fathers needed 🤷🏾♂️
It's about time they mention the parents be responsible to teach and raise their child/children. The community and church are not our problem that's their problem. The court needs to stop bail keep these criminals in jail or do a trade off from another country. This cuddling these criminals going back and forth to jail is ridiculous. Women need to stop having children, if you're not going to raise them probably with rules, discipline, guidance and values. Put the cell phone down and do a person to person contact with your child, so you can observe their facial expressions. Go to their school for a visit and talk to their Teacher and observe their friends. Get involved in your child/children life, before it's too late.
This woman is a earth angel!! She done what she could to protect her child and also exposing light on the situation for others to know about what is happening out here to the youth. Hat off to her.
I'm black and part of my motivation for college was to be able to live virtually anywhere I want. I raised my kids in the wealthiest enclave I could afford and now that they are going to college, I tell them don't go to any party or bar or picnic or anything with too many AA people. If it is just you and those you know, fine. Once a crowd of AA's you do not know arrives, leave.
