Imagine if someone walked up to your front door with a box of matches and said, “Y’all ready to play?” That’s what happened in our Texas neighborhood last week.

A man set fire to a home over an unpaid debt, breaking into the residence and setting it ablaze. The tragic result was the death of an innocent woman who perished in the flames trying to escape.

This isn’t an isolated incident; across the country similar acts of violence stemming from financial disputes are on the rise. What kind of world are we leaving our children if basic disagreements over money can end someone’s life?

The authorities mentioned that there was no forced entry, but eyewitnesses say otherwise. Imagine living next door and hearing the screams...

My heart aches thinking about what happened just blocks from our school. How do we ensure safety for our children as they walk to class every day?

I fear for my child walking home alone, knowing that in another neighborhood not too far away, someone’s life was cut short because of greed and anger.

Parents everywhere need to be aware of this growing danger. Please share this with every parent you know so we can protect our families together.
