| Every day we turn on the TV our kids are seeing bad role models. I know that we should all be good role models ourselves but who do you think is a good role model for us and our kids to look up to? |

How about the men and women that put on a uniform everyday to make sure we stay free? How about the people that run into burning buildings for perfect strangers? Maybe the police officer that works to make a difference in a neighborhood? How about the paramedic that brings new life into the world and cares for the elderly?
I know of several good role models in our world. They just don't get shown on TV as much as the bad role models. |

I totally agree, why does the media give so much air time to the degenerates of the world and the real hero's barley get a sentence. I know the soldiers do not do it for the fame and glory but it would be nice to mention their sacrifices every once and a while. |

Quoted: There's only ever been one truly good 'role model'. His name is Jesus. The rest are fallen, sinful men. All of them. Even the ones most of the poster sin this thread will idolize. One can do all sorts of good deeds, save millions of lives, give everything they have to those in need, but if they don't believe in your imaginary friend, you think they deserve to burn for eternity. But a man who spends most of his life raping and murdering, lying and stealing, if he genuinely feels bad about it, even at the last minute, and believes in your imaginary friend, you think he deserves an eternal reward. That's a hell of a lesson to teach a child. |
