MANY KIDS CAN'T READ AND/OR CAN'T RETAIN WHAT THEY READ BECAUSE THEY HAVE TOO MUCH EMOTIONAL ANGST THAT THEY CARRY AROUND WITH THEM ****ALL**** THE TIME.

Parents should solve such and prevent such problems. They aren't--by legions.

Churches should step up to the plate and prevent, cure such problems. They aren't, wholesale.

I'd prefer to see a number of alternatives but I'm thankful someone has started this.
