"A Child's Voice Connection"  is a Mission that I have been working on for the past several months.   I am a 46 year old father and husband, married for 26 years and 3 wonderful children, one precious grandson.

 

I have been posting for several month's now on Dr Phil's Depression Site.  I wanted to separate my discussions of depression from this Campaign.

 

Goals of this campaign:

 

  • To be an active advocate for the purpose of preventing Child abuse and Abductions.
  • To Integrate as many Advocacy Groups out there for one common cause.  This includes "The Amber Alert" which is named after Amber Hagerman who was a nine year old girl who was abducted, sexually assaulted, and murdered in 1996.
  • Public Awareness and intervention of suspicious circumstances of a child who may be the victim of abuse by reporting to authorities, calling 911.
  • To teach the public which will include parents, teachers, law enforcement, clergymen the significance and magnitude of this problem.  According to Oprah Winfrey, every day 2000 children are reported abducted or missing. 
  • To teach children, on a scale based on their ages how to avoid penitentially dangerous situations.  To teach them the realization of statistics and dangers,  and stories of other little girls and some little boys who have been abducted.  Especially the most well known and recent cases such as Amber Hagerman, Jessica Lunsford, Carlie Brucia, and others.
  • This is critical.  To teach little boys, on a sliding scale based on age, the SIGNIFICANCE AND LIFE LONG NEGATIVE IMPACT AND SEVERE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA THAT LITTLE GIRLS WILL SUFFER BECAUSE of THEIR ACTIONS.
  • I believe that if we increase our efforts 100 fold, which is totally possible, that we can reduce this horrific and disgusting and terrible assaults on our children by at least 50%.
  • My goal is to eliminate child abuse and abductions. 
  • Statistics say that 1 or 4 children are molested by the age of 18.  I believe that it is more life 50% or greater.  This is sickening and MUST BE STOPPED.
  • I would like to thank Oprah for her contributions to our children and her campaign to fight child abuse, and I share the same convictions as Oprah and hope that this message board will serve to help in this campaign.
  • I am an ordained minister and the is my calling.  I am going to work with the local Law Enforcement Agencies, The Amber Alert program, Churches, communities, and Neighborhood watches.

Summary.  Educate, protect and be as straight forward as possible to stop this madness.  TO get the communities involved, and have a plan of action which I am working on in the event of an abduction.

 

Please join this discussion and I am going to provide an email address to forward any questions and/or comments to related to this topic.

Welcome

  djmatt, 

  I'm just stopping by to check out your new site.  It is a very important call and mission and I pray it reaches out and protects many lives. Jewels 

I am so well pleased with all of the support thus far. 

  

What I see is many people who have a very strong concern for our children. 

  

You have heard the song.."Jesus loves the little children.........red and yellow, black and white., they are precious in his sight....? 

  

I am starting in my community, but I soon realized that this site reaches people all over the world.  IF they search for it. 

  

I am going to ask some of the established sites listed here by others, and the Amber alert sites, etc to point to this discussion board.  I intend to bring together and integrate this nation in a simplified, yet elaborate process and Plan of Action and common movement in the voice of our children. 

  

Take care. Thanks for your support.  EVERY ONE COUNTS 

  

dj

AWARENESS



GOD Bless You

G oing about your day you might not have noticed
O ften I pray for you to have loving support
D id someone come out of nowhere to help you

B ecause I asked GOD to send you a personal hug
L oving comfort in smiles from people in your day
E ach and every step along your special way
S o next smile you see be sure to smile back
S ee God sent that smile from me especially for you

Y our teardrops that hide beneath your furrowed brow
O ften turn into love helping others that you know
U ntil now when it is God's turn to let HIs love for you show

I have had a rough weekend and tried to respond to all of the posts.  I intend to keep active regardless of stumbling blocks along the way. 

  

Your poems bring forth thoughts and comfort for the soul. 

  

GOD is moving for this cause.  And thanks to people like you, labelfree, and the rest here this movement will spread across the nation, and a clear and productive AWARENESS and hope will become common in the USA and around the world. 

  

Without being judgmental of others,. and careful not to use history of alleged irony as a negative event; the Hands Across America was a good idea, and the purpose and impact was significant.   

  

But when we are fighting a war, we can't make one stand, fight one battle and assume the war is won.  It is an ongoing effort that must be kept alive, and the AWARENESS on the front line of defense at every moment. 

  

Thanks again for your encouragement and support. 

  

dj.

Good info

"Technically you have a copyright from the moment it is in a tangible form. This can be a recording. To register the copyright, contact the Library of Congress. They have forms on line I think and there is a fee."

GO TO BELOW LINK I THINK, DJ...

http://www.loc.gov/index.html

I am catching up here.  Mother is back in the hospital and I have to get ready to go there soon. 

  

I will take the initial steps of recording, mailing myself a copy.  I will read labelfree's post.  And I will go forward with contacting the Library of Congress.   

  

My brother is a programmer and he had a contract with the US Armed forces at one time and had a copyright that blanketed his programming source code.  I will need copyrights for songs, books, and computer programs, as I am writing a program which I feel will excel any on the market for organizing your finances, record keeping, contacts, and much more.  This is another project that I have worked on in the past, but at some point, between moving from one place to another all of my backup disks got corrupted.  My computer hard drive went out, and the programming Language I was using called Foxpro was lost or stolen.  The cost of the software alone was about 400.00 at the time.  I still have the distribution kit which concatenates and encrypts the sources code.  This prevents others from copying your source code. 

  

Moving on, I am trying to learn a new programming language, but I need to buy the Foxpro Software package since I am very familiar with the language.  I have used others such as Visual Basic, and the V.B. editor for other applications.  But I would be more comfortable with something I am more familiar with.  

  

I did take Basic, COBOL, Fortran, and some others years ago.  But I still have to have the software package to do the programming. 

  

I have studied HTML briefly, and it is nothing more than a structured language similar to others, but for building web sites. I could learn this easily. 

  

I need to stick to the subject.  I am thinking about ways to help finance this movement and to build data bases on contacts, etc.  The language I am using currently I am borrowing by using someone else's computer who has a licensed language on their computer. 

  

But if I could get the Foxpro, or any other as far as that goes. I could build web sites, and databases to quickly and effectively track sexual offenders, neighborhood documents, missing children reports, etc.   

  

I will go now, and I will switch over to the Depression board and see what's going on there. 

  

Thanks again,

Yes.....

Quote From: djmatt

I'm sorry I am just responding. I know this is going to go forward.  And thanks for your support and assertiveness,  and perspectives. 

  

And to emphasize this mission is OUR mission, ALL involved, and our mission is for ALL the children in the world.  

  

It is difficult with the depressive symptoms varying from day to day, and the other situations, the pains, etc.  But this helps me, and I am thankful that GOD has tempered my soul and entire being by the trials so that I can appreciate things more. 

  

I will read the post on the other site today. 

  

Thanks again,  I believe that things are going to change for the good.

Of course all things will change for the good....One day at a time...I again am so proud of you.  I attempted to go on the borderline board and this other poster started with me and really hurt my feelings and quite honest my eyes are filled up with tears and I cant really deal with other people's dysfunction.  I since am working seeing some of my own and add stress of that on top I see how this world the REAL world works and Ill take my imagination any day.  One day you asked me if I was the lost girl and well today I would have to say yes...I would rather be lost in my head than to live in this society that is based on greed and takers.  It actually hurts me right down to the core of my being and that is no joke. 

  

This is not residual effects of child abuse I just cannot phantom the world stage and the selfishness of society and how people are just out for themselves and how the cover themselves,  lookout for themselves,  and I was told at work I was too nice!  Can anyone be too nice?  Should I have to change that about me?  I really do not fit in on this planet.  I thought dark things today. 

  

Please email soon when you have time and pray hard for me too ok!~

I don't know if you want to check out but apparently it is first come first serve of FREE things too good to throw away that people list what is free then you just go get. I don't know the particulars so you'd have to check out and here is the link below... Not sure if they'd have Foxpro but what if they had some FREE tools... That'd really help... Might not be people participating in your area but over 2000 are in my area. Here is the link...it is like recycling to help fellow Americans out. The best way to invest in America is to invest in Americans, I always say... Yes, try not to get too many irons in the fire and focus. You and me and we all need to practice that good habit. I hope having this board now will help you to feel more at ease knowing that each time people click on CURRENT EVENTS people become AWARE of protecting our children. Did you see Michele's post that she checked out missingkids link and saw job openings and may apply there after she graduates from college this summer. So see...Michele's really got it together already helping youth at a YWCA and coming to your board is "why" she checked out the missingkids link. How's that sports fans? Hooray for DJ's board and hooray for Michele... (((HUGs)))

Definitely if what was said totally sent you into a dark mood. You are a child of light so don't let any person, place or thing steal your joy by empowyering their darkness letting snuff out your goodness. Okay, I didn't see post and I don't know but over and done with and hopefully you are on to bigger and better things like catching all the hugs nad smiles that we are praying your way. I hope you had a restful rest and enjoy work tonight. Being nice is good but yes those who are not do target nice people. It is just how it is but those who are nice shouldn't throw in the towel. That's whoever else's behavior and don't let their behavior cloud your ways. Maybe because so many nice people throw in the towel that is why those who are not get a stronghold sometimes. So...SELF MATTERS includes Sue and that's true. Be true to you. You can only control you and many ARE out of control on this earth that is true yet let that be resolve for you to be the best you can be so the light in the world always outshines any darkness. GOD Bless You Sue. (((HUGs))) xoxox
