January 22nd; Always a Dark Day in America From Eagle Forum
Nancy Schaefer, President
January 22, 2010
Nancy Schaefer
January 22nd is always a dark day in America. The first January 22nd of this new decade was the 37th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. There were many "March for Life" gatherings across our land. We remember the little ones with grief and we mourn the 5 million innocent children who have been killed by abortion. We think with sorrow of the multitude of "to-be" moms and dads who have suffered agonizing pain and regret following their decision to end the life of their baby.
Approximately 20 percent of our nation's children have had their lives ended by abortion. Actually, more murders have been sanctioned in the U.S. than were committed by Hitler, Stalin and Lenin combined. Minorities are targeted especially hard by abortion advocates and recently on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, nearly 15,000 people gathered in Houston to protest a Planned Parenthood's 78,000 square-foot government supported abortion business, scheduled to open in a minority area in the spring.
Planned Parenthood's pro-death founder, Margaret Sanger, wrote in "Women and the New Race" these words: "The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." Until God brings this humanistic world to an end, we must fight this kind of evil and press even harder for righteousness around the globe. Once again, we painfully remember, with compassion and love, the 50 million children who have been aborted in America.
Almost 98 percent of abortions are committed for reason of convenience and America is guilty of encouraging and sponsoring these abortions in other countries. But may we continue on in our fight against the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade. We have made great strides and recent polling proves that more Americans today claim to be pro-life than pro-choice. But, even with this promising data and the fact that more of our youth are rejecting abortion, we are close to passing a health care bill in Washington that will make abortion a health care "right" to be funded by the tax-payer. This action could lead to abortion becoming a Constitutional right that we would not be able to alter for years due to the current U.S. Supreme Court.
We must in 2010 and in the future elect candidates who are 100 percent committed to the sanctity of life. Many candidates claim to be pro-life to get elected, and then reject the cause when the campaign is over. No more can we overlook such actions! We must have candidates who actively support pro-life policies. We must have judges who support the U.S, Constitution, not create new policies as the U.S. Supreme Court did in Roe v. Wade.
Regardless of what we may think or hope, there is a high price to be paid for extinguishing the lives of our precious children. Abortion is a form of wicked population control that Creator God will judge. Once again, we must do all in our power to bring legalized abortion, and any tolerance of it, to an end at all costs.
Continue, weary workers, to support your pro-life organizations with prayer and financial help. And may we all, with God's help and with renewed dedication, seek to end the horror of abortion in America.
"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord"

People close to a 9-year-old boy from The Colony struggled Friday to understand why he would take his own life.
MONA REEDER/DMN
Students paused at a makeshift memorial to fourth-grader Montana Lance in front of Stewart's Creek Elementary School on Friday. "That's the question we are asking and probably always ask," Brian Bradford, pastor at Horizons Church in The Colony, said a day after Montana Lance apparently hanged himself in a school restroom. "But something like this is just impossible to truly understand as far the rationale behind it."
The Colony police Lt. Darren Brockway said that Montana was sent to the front office at Stewart's Creek Elementary School shortly before 1 p.m. Thursday. While there, he asked the nurse for permission to use her restroom.
When the nurse realized he had been in the room for about 10 minutes, she tried to open the door, but it was locked. Montana had locked the door before when he was upset, Brockway said.
When the nurse got a key and opened the door, she found the fourth-grader unconscious. She placed Montana on a bed and started CPR, according to the 911 call.
"He locked himself in the bathroom, and he has done this before," school secretary Cheryl Smith, her voice shaking, told a police dispatcher. "There's no heartbeat. Oh, my God."
Montana was taken to Baylor Medical Center at Carrollton, where he was pronounced dead, according to the Tarrant County medical examiner's office, which said Friday that Montana died as the result of hanging.
"We believe this was intentional," Brockway said.
In a written statement released to parents Friday, Stewart's Creek Principal Lea Land said the school's staff tried to save Montana.
"The entire Stewart's Creek Elementary School's thoughts are with the family during this time of grief," she wrote.
Bradford, who went to the hospital with Montana's family Thursday afternoon, said his parents, Jason and Deborah, are struggling to deal with what happened.
"It kind of came out of left field for us, and that just adds to the tragic nature," Bradford said. "He was just a very giving kid and loved to give back and help people and help around the church."
Bradford said a Montana Lance Memorial Fund had been started at Wells Fargo banks to help his family cover medical and funeral costs.
More than 100 people, including many children, attended a candlelight vigil Friday night with tearful family members at First Baptist Church in The Colony.
"The reason why we are here tonight is to pray," said Mark Richardson, the church's pastor. "Tonight, we are crushed."
The funeral was set for 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Trietsch Memorial United Methodist Church in Flower Mound.
Suicide at such a young age is rare, said Dr. Betsy Kennard, a psychologist and professor at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center of Dallas.
"At age 9, kids are just beginning to understand that death is final," she said.
Kennard, who specializes in the treatment of depression and suicide in adolescents, said youths typically don't have the long-term view of the world that adults do. They may think their despair won't go away, so there's more hopelessness, she said. Youths are also more impulsive, which puts them at higher risk, she said.
"What this says to me is that it's not an isolated event," Kennard said. "These kids typically have other things going on that need to be evaluated and treated."
About 90 percent of people who commit suicide have some sort of psychiatric illness that can be treated, Kennard said.
But that's not always the case.
"This could be a deeply troubled kid or a kid who just had a really bad week at school," said Dr. Marjorie Milici, a pediatrician at Baylor Pediatric Center.
Acting on those suicidal thoughts at such a young age is what makes this case stand out, both doctors agree.
Suicide is often related to feelings of despair. But with victims this young, Kennard said, the level of sadness may be less apparent. She advised adults to look for changes in behavior, such as being more irritable or more withdrawn. Aggressive behavior, lack of social skills or poor problem-solving abilities can also be signs.
Marissa Gonzales, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Family and Protective Services, said authorities haven't asked Child Protective Services officials to investigate Montana's death.
Without that request, she said, she couldn't disclose whether CPS had previously visited the boy's home.
At Montana's one-story house Friday, a woman took down the names of visitors. Dogs barked in the back yard near a plastic playhouse.
Several blocks away, family and friends gathered at Montana's grandparents' house. A representative stood at the door with red eyes and said the family declined to comment.
Neighbors of the Lance family said they usually saw Montana and his younger brother wearing camouflage and riding mini-motorcycles in front of their house.
"They would play with all the other kids," said Chris Mata, who moved into the house the family used to occupy down the street.
At Christmas, Mata said, Montana and his brother helped string lights outside their house and hooked them to a radio so the lights and music were in sync.
Mata said his 4-year-old son occasionally played with the brothers.
Phil Myro, who lives a few houses down, said he often saw Montana watching his dad ride his motorcycle up and down the block.
Some parents dropping their children off at Stewart's Creek on Friday morning said they were unaware of the situation.
But Stephanie Rodriguez said the news about Montana troubled her 9-year-old son so much he slept with her Thursday night. His death is simply hard to fathom, she said.
Students, parents and staff members at the school are being given the option of speaking to grief counselors.

The Problem of Parental Alienation
The Problem of Parental Alienation
What Is Parental Alienation?
Parental alienation occurs any time that a parent, relative or friend speaks badly about another parent so that a child can hear what is being said. Alienating behavior may be mild, moderate or severe. All parents are likely to "lose it" and be inappropriate with their words around children, however, when there is a predominance of negative messages being communicated to a child, these messages can seriously erode the child’s psychological well-being. In severe cases of parental alienation, children are manipulated and brainwashed (programmed) into such states of confusion that their perception of events and people around them are severely distorted.
Parental alienation in its most severe form is a heinous form of child abuse and neglect. It is a dangerous manipulation of children’s minds to alter their perception of reality about another parent. The purpose of marginalizing this parent is that he or she has no means to be an effective parent or to cut that parent out of a child’s life entirely, called a parentectomy.
The Tragic Result
Severe cases of parental alienation have the characteristics of being complicated in two ways. Combative parents duel with conflicting stories of "he said / she said," and make it very difficult to determine who is telling the truth. Brainwashed children often support the side of the offending parent with dramatic stories of how they have been abused by the target parent. As target parents argue their position, they often seem defensive even when they are telling the truth. Programmed children lose their own sense of reason and their ability to express their own choice in the matter. If the alienator is not contained, these manipulations of the child’s mind become the incubator of their own future psychological problems. These children have an altered perception of reality that is not in their best interest or in the best interest of society.
Unfortunately, in many cases, fully capable parents and their extended family and friends who love the child and would provide a nurturing and healthy family life are eliminated. Once the cutting out of a parent has occurred the child is left under the full care of the most disturbed and dysfunctional parent. These tragedies are played out in our family law courts daily.
Target parents find that normal methods of handling parental conflict such as mediation and therapy do not work. They are forced to appeal to a judge to make a decision that will enable them to continue to see their children. This is often an expensive and perilous path that rarely results in a satisfying outcome as few people, including judges, attorneys and therapists understand the nature of the problem.

If you are reorganizing your family there is considerable amount of help available to you. One of the first places to start is by taking a parent education course that is offered at www.breakthroughparentingonline.com.

Did You Know That...
Parental Alienation is a form of Child Abuse?
Parental alienation (or Hostile Aggressive Parenting) is a group of behaviors that are damaging to children's mental and emotional well-being, and can interfere with a relationship of a child and either parent. These behaviors most often accompany high conflict marriages, separation or divorce.
These behaviors whether verbal or non-verbal, cause a child to be mentally manipulated or bullied into believing a loving parent is the cause of all their problems, and/or the enemy, to be feared, hated, disrespected and/or avoided.
Parental alienation and hostile aggressive parenting deprive children of their right to be loved by and showing love for both of their parents. The destructive actions by an alienating parent or other third person (like another family member, or even a well meaning mental health care worker) can become abusive to the child - as the alienating behaviors are disturbing, confusing and often frightening, to the child, and can rob the child of their sense of security and safety leading to maladaptive emotional or psychiatric reactions.
Most people do not know about Parental Alienation and Hostile Aggressive Parenting until they experience it. Parental Alienation Awareness is put forth to help raise awareness about the growth in the problem of targeting children and their relationship in healthy and loving parent/child bond.
We need your help to protect the innocent, ...the children.
We need your help to educate and make aware to the public the effects of Parental Alienation and Hostile Aggressive Parenting.
If you've been affected by Parental Alienation or know someone who has, or are a past victim of a parent who exhibited Hostile Aggressive Parenting, please write and tell us your story. We will add your story to our letters page for everyone around the world to publish in their local magazines, newspapers, etc. Please remember to keep your story to the telling of the confusion, loss, love, and heartache. Please refrain from excessive anger and verbally assaulting anyone in your letters.
The aim of the Awareness is to make the general public, judges, police officers, mental health care workers, child protection agencies, lawyers, as well as friends and family of the targeted children or their parents become aware of this growing problem.
With awareness comes education and understanding, and the power to stop the abuse of innocent children caught in the crossfire of people they love.
