"If anything, Ja'eisha's only handicap is her mothers lack of caring. Not her name."
I agree with you a name is not everything... except I'd add what appears to be a lack of a father-figure alongside her disgusting-excuse-of-a-mother. I fear one day Ja'eisha might have a knife in her hand and will be swinging that. THEN whose fault will it be? Ja'eisha is the poster child for all that's wrong in society, and it doesn't end with just what's wrong with our school system.
My Goodness, I just realized that I am guilty of writing Ja'eisha off when it is not my right to. I think we should all pray for Ja'eisha and her mom and her situation instead of dogging her out. I feel rall awful after reading what people keep saying she is going to be and do in the future. We don't have a right. And as for bad kids, we can all watch on "Nanny 911" little white kids, with pretty white names acting just as badly as Ja'eisha. ...... I'm out!
