There has been a lot of blog activity lately, with important issues being discussed and considered. One of a Kind Angel, a sixth-grader at Carter G. Woodson, takes on the subject of hate, and asks why people hate one another. Check out what she has to say:
"They don't even know how BIG and POWERFUL the word HATE is and how it can CRUSH a person's mind and heart in seconds. No wonder we have a number of 6th graders failing at least 1 class. They are too busy worrying about who HATES them when most of the people who say that word dosen't even know what it means.
"Well I do, and I think it should be taken out of a 6th grader's vocabulary because it causes a lot of DAMAGE to a little fragile mind. Like Haiti's earthquake and Chile's too. That cause a lot of damage. So just like phiysical problems can cause a tremendous amount of damage, a simple word or phrase like "I HATE YOU!!!!!" can destroy a person on the inside."
