The kids are dying because of GANGS and the consequences of living that life.
WHY do they join gangs?
WHY is their father not involved in their life?
WHY are they hanging out on the streets when others are playing football?

All important questions with complicated answers.

These women are offering support for each other, because they have been victims.

Well said. Could not agree more. I perhaps part of the problem is that many of these ‘parents’ are barely more than children themselves. Grandparents in their 30′s and 40′s are out at work themselves and unable to help, although no excuse for not teaching a child where to find their moral compass.

They said that there will be a fathers group formed as well. sometimes people are more open in groups with like people and are able to open up with the same empathy. There is nothing to say the two (or more) groups will not meet together or work together.

It all starts at home when they are not given the attention and love they need and deserve. The excuse that “I am a single parent” does not work anymore. You can be a single parent and devote your time and energy to your children. They are looking for attention/love elsewhere – hence they turn to gangs. I know of one child that is not getting any attention from their parent and he has turned to gang activity as a result.

Parents need to step up! I was able to raise my children even though I am a single parent – why can’t others – it takes time, patience, sacrifice and lots of love but the results are worth it all.

Why is this only mothers?

Also most of the action points seem to be about dealing with Moms after they have experienced these tragic losses, nothing about averting them. Respect to the Moms but we need to address WHY these kids are dying and WHAT has to be done.

This was a great touching press conference. Who feels it know it. And these people certainly know it.
