Jacquie, I know how that feels. I so much appreciate Ghandi’s perspective. As a teacher, it is so tempting to fall into judgment about parents, and I have to constantly remind myself to be the adult that I would like to see engage with young children. Change myself and the gate opens for change all around me. I have seen it happen over and over again with my students.

What an excellent article! You are so right that we often waste time brewing and stewing in our emotions rather than choosing to take effective action. This is a great guideline and wonderful reminder.

Thank you!
