I'm sure a lot of you have heard of the abduction on April 15th where 300 girls ages 14 to 18 were taken from their school in Nigeria. While some escaped there are still over 200 girls being held hostage with a threat of being sold by a Islamist extremist group, Boko Haram. Today President Obama made a statement that the United States would do everything in its power to help bring these girls home to their families and find away to put a stop to organizations like this. Stories like these literally break my heart. It is not just an expression our children OUR the future it is a fact and it's up to us to give them the right stepping stones to build it. I will never under stand the mindset of these people, they should be wishing for nothing less then nurture and guidance for these children, but instead they rip them from their homes scaring them for life due to this traumatic event.
Any individual that follows a religion that believes "education is sinful" needs to immediately rethink their beliefs. Sorry, but that's my opinion..
My prayers go out to all these brave little girls that I pray will get home safely and be able to continue furthering their educations.
So horrible!
