Start

School will be starting again, the debates and negotiations are going on within the walls of every home. Expectations are set, clothes, supplies, arrangements, scheduling for all the upcoming changes in the fall. For some the internet gets turned back on and some are just arriving home from lengthy vacations. Sleep schedule’s have to be reset, making lunches again and again and again. It is exciting for a few days and can wear off quickly.

The big day arrives and you send off your tater tots hoping for the best. For the newest little, it is a new world. If you have a boy, teach them about urinals, if you have a girl, a full jumpsuit with buttons and zippers might need some practice first. If they can’t tie, maybe velcro would be better for a bit. Educators, educate, sure they assist your children, but 15 kids needing their shoes tied, does nothing for nobody. Lots of kids arrive not able to manipulate their thermos, coat zipper or looking for a microwave that often doesn’t exist. A little rehearsal never hurts.

A little etiquette goes along way, your teacher is not your bruh and skibidi toilet ohio stays with their YouTube friends. Have a conversation about kindness, you don’t want to play with someone, that is your choice. I make those choices for myself everyday, but you don’t point, whisper, run away, and make others feel small, inadequate or worthless. There are enough rulers in this world, do some role play and teach empathy. I see the cutest little buttons, being the meanest little muffins. A true leader is inclusive. We need more kindness in this world and that starts at home.
