Also remember that for all of the horror stories you do hear about, there are also stories of people championing others. People taking at risk children into their homes and teaching them what unconditional love is. People overcoming personal tragedy to make themselves and the world a better place. The everyday heroes who coach kids (like, in basketball
) so that those kids grow up to be better human beings.
Unfortunately, those people are just not newsworthy. But they are out there!
