Notes About The Poem

What to say to your teenager when you ask, “Where are you going?” as they are on their way out the door, and they reply, “Out with my friends.”

 

Up to 65,000 people go missing every year in Canada, over half are women. This is centered for aesthetic symmetry. Image by Josehf Lloyd Murchison.

Powerful words and message Josehf…..its a scary world for us all at times. Teenagers can be a worry especially as they are not always truthful re their whereabouts! Debx
