Thanks Carol,
I had a similar revelatory moment years back in California. The press seemed to be filled with tales of woe and gangs. It was depressing. Then I got heavily involved in Habitat for Humanity and found myself confronted with weekends full of young teens volunteering to help. And help they did. They worked hard, they worked happily and cheerfully, and they restored my faith in people.
There are so many more good kids out there than bad kids. They deserve to be recognized and supported.

Assume the best and ask questions.
