I met someone today. He was about my age or less.
He was doing a rather horrid thing at the mall.
As I walked in the door, I noticed him over by a
trash barrel, exposing himself slightly as people
walked in. It was not real obvious but I noticed.
I slowed down and kind of watched.
Remembering Adam and how he so desperately wanted
to help that kid that night, I approached him and
said, "What's up, dude?" He was embarrassed and
wouldn't look at me. "You need money?" He tried to
look angry but nodded. "For drugs?" "Nah."
I thought of what all of you had said about
how if we don't help, if we don't try...........I
asked if he was hungry. He was. I took him to the
burger place and he ate like a pig.
We didn't talk much. He didn't trust me, why should
he? I asked him if he would please go home now?
I gave him my other money and told him to please
not do this anymore. Find another way. I didn't have
any other way of helping him.
He wasn't doing it for sex. He was doing it cause he
was hungry. I don't know his name. What do we do about
these kids? I guess this is another "smith needs
help understanding the world we live in."
I know how Adam felt that night....helpless. It's like
trying to stop the leak in the dam with a kleenex.
