You stay right here.

And I'll never forget trying to leave the jail.

And that little boy grabbed me by the arm.

He said, please, please don't go.

Please don't go.

I said, no, it's all right.

It's okay.

You stay right here.

I'm going to try to get you out of here.

And when I left the jail, the question I had in my mind, of course, was who's responsible for this?

And the answer is we are.

We've allowed fear and anger to demonize whole generations of children.

I believe all children are children.

I don't think we show our commitment to children by looking at how well we treat talented kids and gifted kids and privileged kids.

Our commitment to children has to be expressed by how we treat poor kids, abused kids, neglected kids, kids that are disfavored, kids that are struggling.

These are the children that reflect our commitment

to children.

And I just think if we took a trauma-informed response to these kids, not only could we help these children, but we could create healthier communities.

I hate violence.

I don't want to see any child commit a crime.
