There are few things more precious in this world than childhood innocence. But it’s important to remember to watch what you say, and how you say it, otherwise this could happen:
A 5-year-old boy went to visit his grandmother. While playing with his toys, he looked up and said,”Grandma, how come you don’t have a boyfriend now that Grandpa went to Heaven?”
Grandma replied, “Honey, my TV is my boyfriend. I can sit in my bedroom and watch it all day long. The TV evangelists keep me company and make me feel so good. The comedies make me laugh. I’m really happy with the TV, it’s my boyfriend.”
Grandma turned on the TV, and the reception was terrible. She started adjusting the knobs,trying to get the picture in focus. Frustrated, she started hitting the backside of the TV hoping to fix the problem.
The little boy heard the doorbell ring, so hehurried to open the door, and there stood grandma’sminister. The minister said, “Hello, son is your grandma home?”
The little boy replied, “Yeah, but she’s inthe bedroom bangin’ her boyfriend.”
The minister fainted.

Do you wonder what your partner does when you are away at work? This husband got the answer to his question when he came home one day…
A man came home from work and found his three children outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the front yard.
The door of his wife’s car was open, as was the front door to the house and there was no sign of the dog.
Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and the throw rug was wadded against one wall.
In the front room the TV was loudly blaring a cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing.
In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door.
He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened.
He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom door.
As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap, and more toys strewn over the floor. Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls.
As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel.
She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked:
“What happened here today?”
She again smiled and answered, “You know every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world I do all day?”
“Yes,” was his incredulous reply.
She answered, “Well, today I didn’t do it.”

No parent wants to see their child sick. But when it’s the c-word, it’s even more heartbreaking. However, life is not fair sometimes and these illnesses strike so hard that living is surviving one day at a time.
There’s nothing like watching a child lose her hair. To hold your child’s hand while he vomits from the chemotherapy coursing through his body that’s trying to save his life.

Then, there’s processing the news that nothing else can be done. There are no more options to pursue.
How do you tell your child that?

Dad Bill Kohler was a medic with the Armed Forces but found himself unable to help his own child. Ayden suffered from DIPG, or diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, a rare cancer that affects the brain stem.
Ayden had not one, but two brain tumors. The perceptive little boy knew what that meant.
Bill tried enrolling Ayden into numerous clinical trials to try and battle the disease. But Ayden was rejected time after time.
So to make the rest of Ayden’s days on earth memorable, he and Bill made a bucket list. They squeezed in as much fun as they possibly could.
They met WWE wrestling stars, FaceTimed celebrity chef Guy Fieri, went hunting and teamed up with the York Generals semi-professional football team for a fundraiser.
Even though Ayden was having a blast, there eventually came a time where he couldn’t walk, eat or breathe well. That’s when he said four heartbreaking words to Bill.
“Dad, I gotta quit.”

Being a soldier, Bill told him that when Ayden had reached the point where he had fought as hard as he could until there was no more fight left, it would be okay to quit. Ayden pushed on and made it seven months and seven days after his diagnosis, Bill told the York Daily Record.
The 10-year-old had one final request. Bill and mom Jennifer vowed to honor it.
“If people gather to remember me, I want them to dance, sing, and take group pictures. If anyone asks how I want to be remembered, please say happy, funny, athletic, wise, fighter, caring, and selfless.”
In honor of Ayden’s battle and his life, Bill continues to fight for a cure for the disease that stole his son’s life all too soon. He and family members created the 4AydenStrong Foundation that helps other children battling cancer and assists their families when they’re struggling to pay the bills.
He has been pushing lawmakers to fund research for pediatric cancer. Bill also answers phone calls in the middle of the night from frightened parents worried about their children, their future and everything in-between.
Bill helps keep these parents moving forward, no matter the outcome they’ve been told. This strong man has become the rock that strangers desperately need.

After seven tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, Sargeant Jonathan Turner died in California a hero from combat injuries just a year after his retirement.
Living in Georgia, the 41-year-old veteran’s family couldn’t travel out to his funeral in California. Once the ceremony ended, the military had plans to send the remains to the family. Before they could do that, the Patriot Guard Riders (PGR) stepped in.
PGR is a fantastic organization of bikers that go to funerals for firefighters, military members, and police officers. At the funerals, PGR protects them from protestors and harassment. In addition to all this, they fill the seats at homeless and indigent veterans, hold homecoming celebrations for troops arriving home, and do volunteer work for veterans organizations.
After hearing Turner’s remains were going to be shipped home, PGR refused to allow it.
“The California Patriot Guard Riders contacted all of the state captains from California to Georiga and explained the situation, that it wasn’t proper to ship this war hero home via FedEx,” explained Jeff Goodiel of the Georgia Patriot Guard Riders. “Within days, a convoy was assembled with each state’s Patriot Guard Riders driving Turner’s cremated remains across their state and then passing those remains off to the next group of riders.”
Organizers say they had hundreds of volunteers transporting the remains more than 2,000 miles across the country. The respect the PGR showed meant the world to Turner’s family.
“It’s heartwarming, to see all these people here,” said Turner’s mother, Annie Glanton. “I know that he was loved by a lot of people.”
Becoming even more prevalent, bullying stands as a huge issue. A very likely cause of this is that parents don’t teach their kids how to treat people. This father seeks to change that in his home.
When Bryan Thornhill heard his son bullied other kids on the bus, he decided his child needed to learn a lesson. With his form of discipline so unique, Bryan Thornhill soon went viral.
“Hey everyone, welcome to ‘You Better Listen to Your Dad 2018,’” Bryan started a video he posted on Facebook.
Taken from the car, this video shows his 10-year-old-son running on the side of the road with a backpack on.
“My son has finally got in trouble on the bus enough to where he was kicked off the bus for three days because he was being a little bully, which I do not tolerate, can’t stand. Therefore, he has to now run to school. We’re right about one mile from the school so all week he’s got the experience of running,” Bryan explained.
He refused to tolerate his son acting this way, and he knew exactly how to make it stop.
“We’re gonna make sure that one way or another his teachers are gonna be able to enjoy his company at school – he’s not disrupting his classmates and everything else,” Bryan said.
Bryan reports seeing changes in his son’s behavior since then. The teachers even approved of his son’s behavior for the week. He went all week without getting in trouble!
“Teach your kids. Don’t be a friend, be a parent,” he said. “That’s what children need these days.”

A motorcycle officer stops a man for running a red light. The guy is a real jerk and comes running back to the motor officer. The violator demands to know why he is being harassed by the ‘Gestapo.’ So the officer calmly tells him of the red light violation. The motorist instantly goes on a tirade, questioning the officer’s ancestry, sexual orientation, etc., in rather explicit terms. The officer, being a professional, takes it all in stride.
The tirade goes on without the cop saying anything. When he gets done with writing the citation he puts an “AH” in the lower right corner of the narrative portion of the citation. He then hands it to the violator for his signature.
The guy signs the cite angrily, tearing the paper, and when presented his copy points to the “AH” and demands to know what it stands for. The officer then removes his mirror sunglasses, get in the middle of the guys face and say, “That’s so when we go to court, I’ll remember you’re an Asshole!”
Three months later they are in court. The violator has such a bad record he’s about to lose his license and has hired an attorney to represent him. On the stand the officer testifies to seeing the man run the red light. Under cross examination the defense attorney asks: “Officer is this a reasonable facsimile of the citation you issued my client?”
Officer responds: “Yes sir, this is the defendants copy, his signature and mine, same number at the top. ”
Attorney: “Officer, is there any particular marking or notation on this citation you don’t normally make?”
Officer: “Yes sir, in the lower right corner of the narrative there is an ‘AH’, underlined.
Attorney: “What does the AH stand for, officer?”
Officer: “‘Aggressive” and ‘Hostile’, Sir”
Attorney: “‘Aggressive’ and ‘Hostile’”
Officer: “Yes Sir.”
Attorney: “Officer, are you sure it doesn’t stand for Asshole?”
Officer: “Well Sir, you know your client better than I do!”

When the time comes to celebrate the holidays, everyone wants a good company to share a laugh and some nice moments with. However, not everybody is lucky to be around other people.
The world is now celebrating one of the happiest seasons of the year.. Christmas is here and all the colors of red, gold and green are covering the streets, shops, houses, etc.. No matter how spirited you are, Christmas is the perfect time to show your generosity, kindness and gratitude.
These positive acts can come of anyone no matter the religion he or she belongs to. For example, this Muslim-owned Turkish restaurant in London showed in a perfect way how someone can express the true values of Christmas towards people especially those in need.
Hasan Masud, the restaurant owner, hanged out a sign about Christmas that you don’t see it everywhere during the holidays. The sign is now going super viral and gaining praise from people who have been photographing the restaurant and sharing the event.
It doesn’t matter where you come from or what you believe in, we can all take a note from Masud’s playbook!
See the restaurant owner’s touching gesture to unite different cultures this Christmas below.
A restaurant owned by a Muslim in London is offering a three-course meal to the homeless and elderly on Christmas Day to ensure that no one eats alone.
The restaurant, named Shish restaurant, sells Turkish cuisine. It is located in Bexley, London. The restaurant owner spread the word through social media to benefit maximum people.
The menu for the occasion will include starters like soup and cacik. The main course will include chicken or vegetarian casserole or chicken shish. There will be rice pudding for dessert.
“We’re just helping people,” Hasan Masud, an employee at the restaurant, told Buzzfeed. “Lots of people stay home alone for Christmas. They don’t need to. They can come here and have some fun.”
“We are here to sit with you,” owner wrote in a note about the offer posted to the restaurant window.
Since the handwritten sign went up, they have upgraded to a more official flyer.

The other day, a woman standing next to me at a store in our small town read that a meth lab had been found in an old farm house in the adjoining county, and she asked me a rhetorical question…
Why didn’t we have a drug problem when you and I were growing up?
I told her I did have a drug problem when I was a kid growing up.
I was drug to church for weddings and funerals.
I was drug to family reunions and community socials no matter the weather.
I was drug by my ears when I was disrespectful to adults.
I was also drug upstairs to my room or the woodshed when I disobeyed my parents, told a lie, brought home a bad report card, did not speak with respect, spoke ill of the teacher. Or if I didn’t put forth my best effort in everything that was asked of me.
I was drug to the kitchen sink if I uttered a profane four letter word or smoked a cigarette (I do know what soap tastes like).
I was drug out to pull weeds in mom’s garden and flower beds and to clear cockleburs out of dad’s fields.
I was drug to the homes of family, friends, and neighbors to help out some poor soul who had no one to mow the yard, repair the clothesline or chop some fire wood, and if my mother had ever known that I took a single dime as a tip for this kindness, she would have drug me back to the wood shed.
Those drugs are still in my veins; and they affect my behavior in everything I do, say, and think. They are stronger than cocaine, crack or heroin, and if today’s children had this kind of drug problem, America would be a better place to live today.
