I believe the government should ensure all children are provided with a good education.
The world we build tomorrow is born in the stories we tell our children today. Politics moves the pieces. Education changes the game.
When women earn more, families are stronger, and children have better access to quality health care and education.
Sex education is legitimate in that girls cannot be taught soon enough how children don't come into the world.
What makes me angry? The education of children. How in God's name can you expect to have a functioning society the way we teach our kids?
When the state or federal government control the education of all of our children, they have the dangerous and illegitimate monopoly to control and influence the thought process of our citizens.
Some parents do not send their children to school because they don't know its importance at all.
Homeschoolers are the ultimate do-it-yourselfers. They are self-motivated and self-directed, independent-minded and creative. They are not content to turn their education of their children over to the government.
Creativity is the key to success in the future, and primary education is where teachers can bring creativity in children at that level.
So what it boils down to, in my humble opinion, is that we need to support the arts in schools, and at every other level in the education of children.
Promoting education is an effort that is close to my heart. Illiteracy contributes to poverty; encouraging children to pick up a book is fundamental.
We pay a price when we deprive children of the exposure to the values, principles, and education they need to make them good citizens.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
You have to discipline your children, or they won't respect you, law enforcement or God or anyone else.
Entire families are attending 'Son of God' together and sharing it with their own kids. Parents are using the film as a conversation starter to help bring the story of Jesus to life for their children.
Questioning authority is, I think, a great thing to instill in children. I just didn't have enough of that when I was little.
The health care industry can play a great role in this by being aware of the fact that these children form perhaps the most neglected group of people in the country, largely because it is hard to find them.
Basically the children who watch it just see the little characters they love, and so they're not discerning about whether it looks great or it's a great story or anything.
Even in China. Children there, next to the Great Wall, who had never seen Mickey Mouse responded. So the studio did have that skill to communicate with images.
I am strongly of the opinion that chronology is very important. The great arc of time is what children are wired for.
Children have a very good idea of how to distinguish between fantasies and realities. It's just they are equally interested in exploring both.
