	Tears of the Abused By: Jeffery Lee Wells Price: $10.95 Quantity in Basket: none ISBN: 978-1-60862-347-1 Edition: Paperback, 141 Pages Publication Date: November 8, 2011
This is one of my wishes for myself. To publish a book of poetry that I created. Every poem in this book is a view of someone. Someone I met, someone I helped or someone that I look at in the mirror each day. I have had a strange life, to me anyway. Then again maybe not, after reading some of these poems back to myself. I didn’t publish this to become famous nor make money. I published it for myself. We live in a world that has disappointed me most of my life. So many say they care, but if you look at their actions they really don’t. Our elected for the most love to band aid abuse. They never seem to solve the problem of abuse, they just band aid the abused. Over the last two years I have written over 300 poems about abuse. Over the last two years I have written over 1,200 letters to elected officials all across this county asking for them to do something about abuse. And over the last two years I have cried, because for the most part, they don’t care. My opinion is someone that has been abused doesn’t fall into a certain group of people that they can receive a vote from. The abused fall into all political parties, all races, both male and female, the wealthy, the middle class and the poor. This is a problem for a politician. They cannot divide and conquer this group to gather votes. I was born in 1966. Neither party nor single politician has broken any ground yet to save or stand up for the abused. They walk into the room after the fact with a box of band aids and a camera man to make themselves look good. These are my views though, if there are any politicians out there that really care do something about the problem before it happens. Stop walking with band aids and start doing what’s right. Our judges for the most fall into this same category, but that’s another book in itself. God Bless!

	Your Child’s Secret Language By: Ruby Moon-Houldson Price: $11.95 Quantity in Basket: none
If one of your kids gets up from the kitchen table and says “BRB,” don’t despair. He or she will “be right back.” And, if you tell a joke and the response is “LOL,” that’s a good sign. It means, “laughing out loud.” In case you haven’t noticed, your kids are speaking a new language. It probably won’t count as a language requirement when they apply for college, but it does help them communicate with other kids via chat rooms and instant message programs. It’s pretty common for kids to check each other out when they’re online, which could result in the prompt “A/S/L/” for age, sex and location. If your kids get such a query, please remind them not be specific with the “L” part of the answer. You don’t want them disclosing details that could give away their exact whereabouts. Many of the terms used by kids today focus in on sexual activity or drug use. These are words that parents need to be especially aware of so they can be on the alert for a threat or actual danger to their children. Within these pages you will find several words and meanings of words. Hopefully, they will be of great value as you learn your child’s secret language.
