No one told me that my first child going to university would change everything. Everything. Here's what I wish someone had told me years ago.

“We don’t sell pornography in the bookstore and we don’t have a Hooters on campus—we already pre-select those kind of things based on our existing values.”

We’re raising children in a society where the kids who work hard, study, and do “the right thing” can be pushed out of a spot they earned by someone who’s better at lining pockets. We have to raise children in a world where we want to tell them to keep their nose clean, hit the books, and do well. That it will pay off. Except, we live in a world where that’s not always true.

“My main inspiration to become a teacher was because for the kids, I wanted to be what I didn’t see when I was growing up."
