A recently viral TikTok video shows what went down when a boy at school straight up told this 4-year-old that he didn't like her hair.

"In households where only the mother went to services every week, a minuscule 2-3 percent of children grew up to do the same. In households where both father and mother attended, that number jumped to 33 percent of their children, with a further 41 percent coming to church irregularly."

"Will sitting five-years-olds in a desk for eight hours to complete worksheet after worksheet really produce the best outcome for future academic excellence? I say, hogwash. I say, let them be kids."

"The cornerstone of your family is not your children."

"It was one of those single-mom moments where I thought I would go insane. I looked insane, probably smelled insane, and my head was pounding from all the screaming."

"Every word, action, and conversation is a brushstroke. And when your children prepare to leave home, they are staring at a portrait of God."

"If you say no, you better mean it. By changing your mind, your child has gained more than a piece of candy; they've gained the knowledge you can be broken down easier than a cardboard box."

Parents often act as though our role is to shape our children into an idealized version of our younger selves.
