Reader Discretion is Advised

Ok - I have an issue I just have to get out there. For those of you who are sensitive to "racist" remarks, don't bother reading any more.

Why can't Mexicans watch or discipline their kids? In the last month, there have probably been at least 6 stories on the news where a Mexican toddler has been hit by a car. The sad thing is, another Mexican is usually the one that hit them. In my neighborhood, there are at least 10 Mexican kids under the age of 12 and they just run around the streets. The toddlers (3 and under...) literally run around barefoot and pants-less after dark - AFTER DARK.

Today, in the Walmart parking lot, there was a little Mexican boy running around screaming. People were trying to help and console him but he couldn't understand what they were saying because, surprise surprise, he didn't understand English. And guess what- THIS IS AMERICA AND WE SPEAK ENGLISH IN THIS COUNTRY. Sorry if that offends anyone, but that's how it is.

Don't get me wrong, American people (not just white, but people who have resided in this country for more than one generation and/or are legal) lose their kids too. But in my experience, they usually find them quite quickly.

I don't need to hear everyone else's opinion, I just have to let everyone know what I think about that situation. Have a great week :)

  1. I totally agree. My problem with them is mainly when I shop at the DI. I love to shop at the DI but there are always children running around and when you try to go down a skinny isle they just sit and play with the toy they found and their parents just stand in my way and ya it just drives me crazy!
