Generation G is the approach of todays youth, an approach of generosity in spirit, contribution, meaning and care for the life of their culture and this planet.  As elders, we are the believing eyes for this generation, the gateway to their success as they face issues we did our best with, as they address these issues with a brand new mind.  Lets listen, lets contribute, lets collaborate....this is OUR future together.

Generation G is about generosity and about empowering a generation that is not entitled but empowered to speak their love, concern and contribution for this world, as we have supported and taught them to.  Finding voice / giving voice is about garnering empowerment to accomplish and achieve what needs to be achieved.  I think you will find WHATAREKIDSSAYING.COM to be an important stepping stone in that voice of the future we so want to see.

My life story is crazy. I'm a pastor's daughter. I love that my dad is a pastor,
but sometimes being the daughter of a pastor can be challenging. A lot of people
judge me because of it and sometimes I just get tired of it and I'm sure my two
brothers do as well. 

This past year has been extremely difficult for me and my whole family. I switched
school's in seventh grade and had to make all new friends, which was tough. On
top of that I was graced with the news that my cousin, who had lived with me for
two years, had his brain tumor come back for the third time. This time, however, it's
bigger and the doctors can't do anything. He has two to six months to live.
He's in our basement and it's tough watching someone die. On top of that, we
recently found out that my Nonna, who I'm extremely close to, has to have a
triple-bypass surgery. 

Between taking care of my dying cousin and my Nonna my house is going to become
very chaotic. Obviously, my life isn't too great right now. I won't complain, though,
because I know that God will take care of my family. Whatever is to come, we'll be okay.
