Time to be grateful

So seriously, in the past week:

1. A student is being sentenced to 2 years in jail for robbery (next week)--with ankle bracelet in school in the meantime
2. A student found out she is pregnant
3. Another student's house was burglarized during school---like seriously, everything gone.
4. Student had a botched surgery and is very ill.
5. A student's mom tried to kidnap her, she wanted to runaway...mom is now getting custody of her in November because no one will take her in to save her from the drama
6. A student's dad went to jail for violating probation
7. Student beat up school security guard--expelled

These are just things I know about. Let alone, numbers 1-5 were all in one class in the same day.
These kids each have gone through more than I have in a lifetime...time to be grateful for our upbringing...
