The "emotion" that Nena displays here I agree with. But to make that enormous "leap" to pedophile from a few words, no matter how bazaar, seems to me
to be a bit much.
We really have no idea-----------------do we?
therefore, seems inappropriate, but we all sure know where some of us stand on this issue, don't we?

Look Mexico has a ways to go on getting all kids into a school setting and keeping them there. We have the same problem about kids not going to
school but just not on such a big scale. We keep making more laws and services to families to keep them in school. Mexico tries to do this with DIF
which is similar to our Department of Social Services here in California. Mexico kids that miss school do so out of the necessity to eat remember the
need to ge back to the basics. Unfortunately, most of these parents are also uneducated and trying to make the basics happen to feed the entire
family. The U.S. got out of that old deal of haviing a lot of kids to work the farm or streets do whatever job was there to bring in the money. Baja
will keep getting more kids educated as their economy gets better and things are happening in Baja. I really like what David K said focus on why we
all want to be down in Mexico every chance we get. Kids are Kids no matter what side of the border they are and it takes an economy that lets their
parents not be forced to use the kids to feed the kids. Later----Bajafun777

Mexico will be going nowhere
as long as it has to deal with high birth-rates and over-population. Too much "MACHISMO"

And you are to both protect me as a young one from the clan since I have less than half your posts.

Fin?
I just went back and reviewed this post (by me) that started out with a concern with an eight year old child being killed by a farm tractor.
Almost immediately it changed directions and became a rant about tips and grocery stores in Baja.
From there it made a couple of figure eights, veered one-eighty (for a second) back to concern for kids laboring on a farm, then it made several left
turns, and a right or two. Then it really hit a low spot with a disgusting suggestion—thankfully it was not well received at all. Then a word, about
the hottest one in the English language (at this point in time), was tossed into the mix.
Anyway, I believe that overall it turned out to be a most interesting post and I think that it has set a ‘record’ for the most deviations off topic.
For my money a prize should be presented to Mrs. fdt for her ability to hit several nails directly on the head with one slam of the hammer.
Oh! Yes, the Constitution does say that you may not hire kids under 14 and that I believe it why they only receive tips.
I still feel strongly that Mexican law should be utilized to put those folks in prison who hire kids under 14 to work, particularly in such dangerous
areas such as farming—never heard of a kid bagging groceries kicking the bucket.
I also 'know' that people who sexually abuse children should be done away with because they are beyond curing or caring!!!! But only after they are
found guilty in a court of law.

I am glad that I live in a place where the society is not blinded and bogged by petty rules. Rules that in some places have a citizen so
strapped down he doesnt even have the freedom to build what he likes on his own property. (HOA, but again thats another story)
I would encourage my son to bag groceries for tips only and thank the store chain for allowing me the opportunity to help train and shape my
son in a real life situation, So he can be better prepared for what lies ahead in his life.
