Schools these days!!!

I knew that one day that I wanted to have children. I didn't know when or that I was going to have them as soon as I did. I love my kids to death. Its scary being a parent, you have to worry about their safety, their health and and their happiness. I never thought I would have to worry as much as I do while they are in school. I never faced issues like this when I was in school. the school my children attend in St. Louis City is awful. the kids are rude and have no loving side to them. the one they are attending now is the better of the schools but it still is like a whole other world to me. We have already had a few bad incidents. the first was with my 6 year old that has special needs, he was taking a nap during nap time, and another child in the class room went crazy hitting all the kids and teachers. this is when he then proceeds to go up to my son laying down sleeping and kick him in the face and eye. I was called to come up to the school and get my son and I was informed that there was an incident. when i got there his personal helper was worried to tell me all that had happened. Turns out that the kid also jumped on my sons back while he was stuck on the ground crying. Why with all the teachers and helpers in there was this child not stopped!!!? Called cops and they did nothing and all the kid received was a week off of school, which is like vacation time for him!!!!!!

Confused with life!!!

Life as a child seemed so hard. Always being told what I can and can not do. When and where! And even who I can talk to! I use to think as soon as I am an adult and I can do what I want then I am going to be soooo happy. If things were still that simple. Not knowing that when I was going to become an adult that I would be a mother at 19 and then again at 21. Mother hood to me was not a big deal, I can handle this, so I thought until I found out my second son had special needs. To make matters worse his father had developed a drug addiction to cocaine. Now at 21 I found myself stuck raising my two kids alone and his additional 4, (there mother had died in a car accident). Now as I sat there thinking dam I would not mind being told what to do again. After about a year of all that I decided with just our clothes and a few personal items, me and my children were leaving this situation. I had no money, a crappy Jimmy (suv), and school with no job but this looked like heaven to me. I moved to a small one bedroom apartment, and it was small above a house. It was tuff but I managed it. It went smooth for about 5 months until I came home one day to having no electric, my landlord turned out to be a drug addict also and had decided not to pay the bills that month although I did......
