As cliche as it sounds, I did hug my kids a little harder, and kissed them more during the weekend. So please let's try to pray for these hurting families, and keep them in our daily thoughts as we soak in this Christmas season. It's so easy to get caught up in meaningless material things during the holidays, but I pray that more of us won't fall into that trap in the wake of what happened. Merry Christmas from A Hope Bail Bonds, and be careful out there.
It was a bit hard over the weekend to concentrate on business matters and family times when so much heartache has invaded our nation. I myself had a hard time focusing and letting loose at a Christmas party on Friday night. I can't really begin to feel what the parents and loved ones of the children and staff at that Connecticut school feel, but as a parent, it felt like I was in a bad dream, and we're thousands of miles away. It felt like September 11th all over again.

We here at the A Hope Bail Bonds office are curious as to what you folks think about the 2 Las Vegas area brothers who assaulted the special-needs student and put it up on YouTube? The 2 have since been arrested and may be facing some serious punishments. Our added concern here is that for every one of this knuckle-head incidents that goes public, how many other bully instances go unreported? Should the system make a real example out of these kids to deter future episodes? Or even if the book is thrown at them, will it make a difference? Who is really to blame for this? And please don't say our teachers.
