Statistics on people in jail is stunning

Read this story about the number of people in jail.

Here's an interesting quote: " Using state-by-state data, the report says 2,319,258 Americans were in jail or prison at the start of 2008 - one out of every 99.1 adults. Whether per capita or in raw numbers, it's more than any other nation."

Why do you think so many people are in jail? Social liberals will come up with their own reasons, but perhaps it has something to do with the way people are raised--expect everything, you are entitled, you should have what you want, ME ME ME. It's pretty tough to raise kids in this obsessively egocentric society we live in.

The answer--closer family relationships and devotion to God. EAT DINNER WITH YOUR KIDS. Know where they are at all times and question them about everything. Remember, it's YOUR HOUSE, not theirs.
