On this episode, Brooklynn and her Dad discuss the very real world of crime and how to trust your gut to avoid bad situations and people. A note from the "Dad" to parents. "Most people don't understand just how close they are to the world of crime. And along those same lines, most parents don't understand how close their kid is to crime. Public schools are essentially little towns and just like every town, even schools have bad things happening or planning to happen. One of the conversations that is a "must have" with your kids is how to deal with bad people and bad situations. While working in the juvenile detention center, I have seen your every day "typical" kid get caught up in something they had no busy being involved in. Guilty by association is a real thing. The prevention to bad company and circumstances starts with conversations. Our hope is the conversations between my daughter and I serve as a conversation starter in your homes with your kids, or if you're kid the hope is you are allowing these conversations to broaden your perspective and make you think so you can be better prepared with a response rather than a reaction. Dad Out!"
