In a recent episode of “The Ingraham Angle” on Fox News, Laura Ingraham invited Reverend Doctor Charles Harrison, senior pastor of Barnes United Methodist Church in Indianapolis, to discuss the alarming trend of youth violence. Laura highlighted several disturbing incidents involving teenagers committing brutal crimes, questioning the apparent disregard for human life among young people.

Rev. Harrison emphasized the crucial role of parenting in addressing this issue. “Parents have to start being parents and not trying to be the friends of their children,” he stated.
