Chemical X

Sugar. Spice. And Everything nice. These were the ingredients chosen to create perfect little girls. But then SOCIETY added an extra ingredient to the concoction…Chemical X.

This generation is lost. Morals have changed, standards have lowered and shame seems to be nonexistent. All I can do is shake my head when I see young girls acting like grown women. Who is to blame for these unfortunate situations? Society is to blame. They have poisoned the minds of young girls. Society has glorified drinking, smoking, sex and the new phenomenon, twerking. They make it seem cool to participate in these senseless activities, which tends to appeal to the younger generations.

Little girls these days want to grow up so fast. If they knew what I knew they would cherish their youth because there isn’t anything “fun” about adulthood. I wish that I could go back to the days when all I had to worry about was going to school, playing with toys and watching cartoons. I wish I could go back to the time where I had no worries. There was a time when little girls were just that. They didn’t care about sex, drinking and smoking. All they cared about was being a kid!

 Children imitate and learn from their observations. If a little girl constantly sees Mommy twerking, turning up day after day and dressing scandalous, she’s going to think it’s absolutely fabulous and she’s going to follow right in suit. But she’s just a child. Her focus should be on Barbie’s and dolls, but instead she's focusing on the negative aspects that surround her. She thinks they’re acceptable and that its proper behavior. It isn’t her fault because she can’t control her surroundings. This is where the parents are supposed to step in and monitor what their child is exposed to. But, it seems as if many just don’t care. They think it’s cute when their young daughter performs a twerking move or dresses like a 20 year old women. They laugh and whip out there phones and quickly record and capture it; eager to post it on a social site. Quite frankly, I’m tired of seeing videos and photos like that appear in my newsfeed and timelines. 

Like I stated earlier, morals and standards have all change. They have declined. You can’t even turn on the television or radio with seeing and hearing outrageous behavior! There’s no escaping it! These young girls are watching and imitating reality television thinking that it’s actually reality! Basketball Wives, Love & Hip-Hop and the Bad Girls Club are falsely advertising what reality actually is to these young girls. Music videos have immortalized video vixens to the point that little girls are attempting to act just like them. All I can do is shake my head! 

The Chemical X is spreading and it seems to be getting worse and worse. There are three things we can do in order to see a change in the Chemical X epidemic. First, we must become aware of the issue at hand. Second, we can no longer tolerate or ignore it and third, we must take action!  One day I’m hoping and praying that the innocence and purity of young girls won't be taken away from them due to the ignorant, improper and inappropriate behavior that seems to be all around us. I’m hoping that the Sugar, Spice and Everything nice will no longer be tainted by the Chemical X.
