"Its estimated since the time of my youth, depression among children has increased by 1000% and teen suicide by 300%. Since 1997 classroom-assassins have killed two in Mississippi, three in Kentucky, five in Arkansas, and thirteen in Colorado. Make a graph of these numbers and watch them go exponential in years to come - unless we start giving our kids a new way to go and some real hope for the future."    - Daniel Quinn
