are you for real??

lets look under the hood...

"i want you to think for yourself"

meets:

"why dont you see things the way i do. it makes me sad"

can these two statements ever get along

let it go mate. let it go. all you can do is educate and move on to the next person to educate. progress is slow. and progress never comes from a kid saying to you, "i will convince my family to do just as you told me!"

change is a slow churn. don burn out from your inability to change children overnight.
