Book Cover & Preview Text
Preface As the most developed country in the world, the United States of America has the privilege of enjoying the most advanced technology, one of the highest per capita incomes, and supposedly more socio-economic opportunities. However, in contrast with similar democratic countries like Canada, Sweden, and France, the United States of America has the highest infant mortality rate, the highest child poverty rate, and the highest delinquency and juvenile incarceration rate. African-American infant mortality and poverty rates are many times higher than those of their Caucasian counterparts. The latest United States census estimates that African-Americans accounts for about thirteen percent (13%) of the population; however they are the group that continually make up the highest percent of the jail population. Subsequently, the increased number of inmates has naturally led to an increased demand for more jail cells. The combination of the above factors has resulted in the prison privatization frenzy, a system that is using more and more of our tax dollars. Indeed the prison system portfolio is doing well in the stock market. If you have any money to invest, you might just have received one of the many free tips this book offers. In the past two decades alone, the United States government has built more prisons than rehabilitation centers and has spent less and less resources in prevention and education. Indeed what is said to be judicious may even be far from being just. Although the United States of America is known to be the Superpower of the world, the alleged land of opportunity, liberty, and justice for all, there remains a considerable segment of this great society that is neglected. The ills of a big society in constant evolution are hurting adults, but are also taking a toll on our children, therein depleting their stock as good tax paying citizens. This has the real potential to eventually deplete the United States Treasury of needed revenue. Children are not taxpayers, are not supported by lobbyists, and do not vote prior to adulthood. As a result; too many crimes have been committed against them, and little is done with children for their betterment. They are used as pawns, exploited by their own parents, their countries, the media, worldwide companies, and the judicial system in collaboration with a host of unscrupulous and malicious self-serving attorneys with their support systems. What is saddest and most frightening is the latest wave of teen violence now sweeping the nations streets, homes, and the schools. Parents, guardians, and the rest of the community are now impotent to discipline their own children as a result of the lethal ammunition now being provided to children. In the past, the children in a community "belonged" to everyone whether or not they were part of the immediate family. In sharp contrast, today s youth intimidate adults, disregard authority, abuse parents, and disrespect neighbors and teachers. How can the nation begin to stop misbehaving children from ruining their own lives, driving authority to the edge, biting the hands that feed them, and in a sense, harming all those people trying to help them? It is this practicing pediatrician s intention to navigate you out of the deep ocean of confusion and light the way as you strive to understand how you can prevent your child, or any child, from becoming exposed to the harm created by the appalling "slavery system" throughout the world, particularly in the United States.

About the Book
- Our children are being exploited in the modern world by our governments, our legal system, and are forgotten by our modern society.
- Children are going to sleep traumatized and malnourished behind the prison wall of the so-called "home".
- Children exposed to domestic violence at home are more likely to be psychologically wounded, violent, and incarcerated than the national average.
- Last year, more than twenty five million American children did not see their father during the holiday season.
- Behind the tall barb-wired walls of third world sweat shops, children as young as five manufacture stylish commodities such as celebrity sneakers and designer jeans at wages as low as one dollar a day.
- Through expensive commercials featuring sport legends and other children idols the corporate world persuades both rich and poor children to desire the same commodities, at prices ranging from fifty to one hundred and fifty dollars.
- Pimps as well as parents use children as victims, prostitutes, drug pushers, hustlers, and servants to them and other masters.
- Today s children spend more time preparing for their funeral than their future.
