As I am driving back home from dropping off my son at the movies I see two young black boys walking in the middle of the street. Carrying what is obviously grocery bags that are too heavy for them. Not caring about the traffic I slow down and ask them where they are going and if they need a ride. They ignore me as the car behind me honks! Ugh! I make a U turn on burns road, put my flashers on and go back to where the boys are and try I talk to the boys again (getting a better look at the they look like they are 6 and 8). I really want to help you I tell them. I promise I am not going to do anything to hurt you. Please get in the back of my car and I can drive you home. Its is now raining pretty hard. They look at each other and the older looking one asks me if I am going to kidnap them. Of course not I tell them, come on, get out of the rain. I try to talk to them as they are giving me directions; wrong directions because they cant tell their left from their right. They tell me mom sent them to run errands. Their bags are from win Dixie. (If you know the areas from the texaco has station to win Dixie its probably a good five mikes each way.)And we finally make it to a home that looks very run down. My dilemma. 1. What kind of patent does this to their children! 2. Have I done more harm to these children by giving them a sense of everyone is good?! What if the next time they do this; a Silvia is not going to pick them up! What if its a bad person. 😔 when they got out of my car the little one said God bless you! Oh how sweet! Still, my heart breaks. Why do I feel so bad?!
