I am an advocate for parents... but more importantly, I'm an advocate for kids. TO ALL PARENTS (myself included): We can and must do better this year.
If we want curious kids,
---- then we must become curious in the home.
If we want kids who value learning,
-------- then we must learn things on our own and with our kids AT HOME. (And we must never praise grades but get Superbowl-Touchdown-Fired-Up when we see our kids showing a genuine interest in learning something.)
If we are tired of one-size-fits-all educational models,
--------------then we must treat our kids as unique, beautiful, one-of-a-kind individuals who have curiosities, passions, and hopes that rarely get any oxygen.
Parents. This year, no more pointing fingers at schools or teachers.
From now on, we start by changing ourselves... and watch as our kids follow our lead.
You got this!
