CAN I PROTECT THEM?

Can I protect them?

Can I protect them from being attacked on their schools from a man with a gun?

Can I protect them from a man at their college with a knife?

Can I protect them from a bomb at school or a sporting event?

Can I protect them from being abducted on their way from the bus stop?

Can I protect them from being killed in an accident on the school bus due to no seat belts?

It's my job as their mother to protect them.  What options do I have?  Home school, no sports, no college?  Oh and I cannot let them get a job because it could be bombed?  What are my options?  

I live in fear when God tells me not to fear, I pray for their protection with a pit in my stomach.  We do not talk about the tragedies that plague our world  at home to protect them while their small, but I don’t want them to hear about it ever at all.  How can I protect them when this is all out of my control?  I could have a huge bubble put over our 5 acres and never let them out, is that an option?  How else can I protect them?  I'm afraid for them, am I the only one? Life is hard enough, marriage is a daily challenge,  parenting with a balance of love and encouragement and discipline, work no work, emotional and physical well being keeping up with the house and the needs there, keeping your fake face up for the people that you see during the day because God forbid you let anyone know how you really feel.   We can just all get on anti depressants or drugs for all the new diseases and ailments, we can read a self help book and get some therapy.

Maybe the people who are doing this weren’t breast fed. Maybe their dad didn’t spank them as a kid, Maybe they have some kind of disorder like PTSD, ADD, ADHD, OCD, ODD, ED, BD, or maybe its all BS I don’t know.

I know that accidents happen at home, I know tragedy can strike at home I know, I know, but what I don’t know is how I can let my children out of arms without having a sick feeling inside me.

Can I protect them?
