Everyday it seems to be getting worse, it's almost as though we're getting used to hearing in the news about some monster doing something unthinkable to someones child. Kidnapping seems to be happening everyday, and alot of the time it's the poor childs own patents that have done the unthinkable. How can we ever trust anyone when people are killing, selling,abusing there own babies? This scares me so much, Its not just babies but teens and people of all ages that these things are happening to. I think it's time we all come together and do something about this terrible stuff that is getting worse daily. We need to pray, we need to keep an eye out for each other, it takes a village to raise a child but in this day and time we don't know what kind of people live in our village. We have to watch for people acting strange we have to watch each others children as they play. Even kids we don't know, we have to look out for our neighbors, get to know them, we need to bond and come together, and some how stop this maddness!!

Hi dasiejanie, There really does seem to be more of this sort of thing happening today than there was say, fifty years ago. Maybe there really isn't anymore, but that it's just happening in places where we didn't see it before. I live in a small town and in an area where crime was almost unknown just a few years ago but now it's happening all around us. Today the world is a global village and we hear of these things happening all over the world and maybe all the talk about it only makes things worse. Blessings.

We have got to bring this darkness out into the light, we have to talk about it, to be aware and to come together to fight, help, watch for, and atleast try to make some of it Stop. If we hide our heads, we are not doing anything this is to serious to stay quiet about. These are our children, our daughters our hearts.

There is also good in the world. Like someone saving a child's life. There are people who have done good things like volunteer and donations.

Yes u are correct, we need to hear more stories about goodness in the world. But the other is getting bad, we need to step up and somehow figure out something we can do to help stop it.

This was predicted for our times. Things will not get better. God's word will help us deal and make it through these critical times until God sets up a better arrangement for living. Keep the faith! 2 Timothy 3 (New International Version) 2 Timothy 3 Godlessness in the Last Days 1But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. 6They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over weak-willed women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth. 8Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these men oppose the truth—men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone. Paul's Charge to Timothy 10You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, 11persecutions, sufferings—what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. 12In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13while evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

I dont know what is wrong with people in this world. It seems like everyone is turning evil or something. Prayer might just help.
