Knives and your Children

We don't allow our 14-year-old to carry at school, but he wishes he could.

Ya most people don't realize a knife is just another tool

Thanks for the kind comments. Below is a picture of my wife and kids in 2001 just a few months before 9/11/2001. The long-haired kid in the video is the same kid below at age 6. It was pretty difficult to explain in '01 to that 6 year old why some people wanted to make those buildings he went into and posed in front of come crashing down. He is growing up in a much different world than I.

Thanks for the video man
It still amazes me how vivid that day remains in my memories.
God Bless America and God Bless our troops defending this great country.
Never forget!

No offense my good man, but your video didn't do much for me. Watching your kid brush his teeth, pointing a camera at September 11 on a calendar and watch him pick up a knife doesn't sell it for me.

Show him breaking the glass on the window of a burning car that's overturned and cutting an old lady out of her seatbelt and you'd have me. I'd even settle for using the knife responsibly for a mundane task as if it was second nature...Call me brutally honest I guess.

I now offset my slightly negative post by paying you a compliment; the cinematography was top notch :-)
