No, a child cannot pick his/her parents. You're born to who you're born to.

This is why I champion waiting until you're married to have sex. This is why I champion waiting until you're in the right mindset to get married. This is about the children one has.

And the fact that this pre-teen is posting photos of himself acting like a gang member, this speaks not only to bad parenting, but to the fact that this kind of behavior is encouraged in pop culture. It is encouraged to act like a thug. Look at Li'l Wayne.

As a side note, at age 13, I never thought about posing with guns like a gang member. I was think of things like The Wild Thornberrys, atlases, and riding my bicycle, not becoming a gang member.

Food for though, at the age of 13, he very well could already be a gang member.

There are gang members younger than that. Some join gangs before age 10.

I watched an episode of Gangland which took place in New Orleans. One guy was out carjacking before he was 9 years old.

Cap guns? They're shooting up schools with real guns

How is this different than white ammosexuals who take pics of their kids with guns? I've seen photos with babies and guns. Literal babies. Under 1.

Obviously guns mean something very different when in the possessed by a black person.

Really? Both PRESIDENT Obama and his wife, have 4 Ivy League degrees between them. How many do you and your wife have? Do you know how racist, jealous and pathetic this is? George W. Bush, your infamous C student President has a higher incidence of this type of behavior due to his poor academic record...let's not forget about his two whorish daughters. JEALOUS JEALOUS RACIST PATHETIC. LOLOLOL.
