I am so grateful for people like you who can at least shine a little light from God into their lives. I taught in a juvenile correctional facility for 12 years and know what satan does to our children. I grieve for those of our children like this one who has little to no experience with the love of God, but more than enough of the hateful, hurtful side of humans. By the way, I refuse to capitalize the s an satan. Take heart, you are doing the right thing in very difficult circumstances. And only Gos knows at this time what good seeds you are planting in and for these troubled kids.

I thank God for people who will open their homes to these.
Matthew 25:40
"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
God bless you for planting the seed.

It's a shame so much garbage is on the internet, at least you found out early which is good....may God continue to use you to sow seeds of faith into these young lives, you never know when the harvest will come....God bless you for opening your home to these kids in need and thank God you are able.....Janet

How sad that a small child would want to waste time on such terrible sites when there are so many other things for them to do, I am sure with your influence life will be so much better for the child

Deanna, I appreciate you and your selfless way of opening your home to at risk children. But God has given you a heart and a mission to do this. He has opened up the doors for you to provide a glimpse of Him. My dad and I were discussing recently about Christ return and scripture tells us that everyone will have heard about Christ. So you are helping fulfill part of the prophecy of Christ return. It's sad that Children do not know the difference between right and wrong, but sadder still when adults don't.Because they are where the younger ones learn from. This young one will one day appreciate what you did for him. I'll keep you all in prayer for this situation. Hugs. Terre

God bless you for the work you do.

Deanna, what a big heart you and your Rick have - I think that it was good that you found this out - with this boy - now you can take the stand of no internet, except on your pc - so we can here from you - do whatever it takes to help him - he surely needs it. I so admire you and your work. I will be praying for and the kids, too.

Isn't it sad when a young child becomes an adult to quick. They don't have a chance of being able to enjoy a regular childhood . I admire what you and your husband do with these children. God bless you both and pray that this little boy can feel the love and guiding hand that you are offering him. take care. Hugs Lynn

Deanna you need a hug by now. Here it comes. Hope you feel better. :)

What a wonderful thing you are doing for these kids! Big hug for you and your family!

You are a very special person to have these children come into your home. A big hug is coming your way, I think you really need it. Arlene

Your life is certainly not easy even though you do get to reap the rewards of seeing these children through the hard times in their lives. You and your family could possibly be the only really good things that happen in these lost children's lives. You do show them and teach them the way it can be for them if they make the right choices. I imagine that these troubled children have never even had a chance to be able to make a choice of any kind. It is a rare family that will take on such a tremendous responsibility for children that have never had a choice in their life. That is all you can do. You can guide them and show them love and make good rules for them to follow and most of all, CARE about them. Most of the children that fall between the cracks have never even had anyone that cared about them or even tried to let them be children. In most cases on this much neglect, the child is the one that has had to be the adult in the house and with no prior training. They can not learn what they have never seen or had. My heart goes out to them and I think you and your family are wonderful for caring enough to help them. May the Lord bless all of you and guide you so you can guide them. It is a very rare person that will get involved in stranger's lives and try to help. This has to be the hardest job in the world; caring enough to show this lost child that he is important and cared about and trying to teach them that there is a better life and it can be reached with love and discipline. Thank you so very much for caring about these very lost souls that you reach out to help. Prayers and blessings, Linda
