🚨Flashback: Oklahoma Candidate for Governor Gentner Drummond implies that Catholic and Evangelical Professors can’t teach students of a different denomination: “Do we really want public school teachers teaching your Baptist child if they are Catholic? Or if they are Episcopalian or if they are Evangelicals?” What Drummond is implying...

Hills I will die on as an elementary school teacher, who just wrapped up my 32nd year teaching! 1. If you are not PASSIONATE about blessing, serving, and empowering those you are blessed to teach, this profession is not for you. 2. Our students are not “ours”. They are their families, and we need to understand the magnitude of the calling, and responsibility we have to meet them where they are, and to help them to get to a place that they never thought possible. 3. As important as the curriculum is (and it IS important), the children in our classroom are what matter most. It’s our JOB to teach the curriculum to SERVE our students, NOT to use our students to push any sort of agenda. 4. Just as we teach our students to “leave things better than they found them”, we need to leave our students better than they were when they first entered into our classroom. Never let a day pass without pouring into each and every child. 5. We should not teach our children WHAT to think, but HOW to think, and how to use that knowledge to bless and serve not only themselves, but the world around them. 6. Our words carry little (or NO value), if we do not practice what we preach. 7. If we don’t make learning fun, children will view learning as a chore, and we we will be creating a generation of children who grow up to be young adults who don’t see the joy in learning new things. 8. The child that may be “difficult to reach/teach” (the one who may get on your last nerve more than you could ever imagine), is someone’s EVERYTHING. Get to know them as human beings, find out what motivates them, and do everything you can to help them to thrive. 9. Never tell a child they “can’t” do something. God has blessed each of them with far more strengths and talents than we may know, and it’s not our job to tell them what they can’t do, but to help them to realize all the things they CAN do. 10. The legacy you leave as a teacher will never be determined by your student’s test scores, but by the human beings you helped them become throughout their lives.

Make sure to vet your instructors and report anyone like this so they can never pick up a firearm again. I know we joke around here but this kind of negligence is exactly how people die. How to vet a firearms instructor: •Certifications are a baseline. NRA, USCCA, or state credentials are common, but they don’t guarantee skill or good teaching. •Ask who trained them. Good instructors are lifelong students. If they haven’t taken a class recently, that’s a red flag. •Experience ≠ expertise. Military or law enforcement backgrounds are cool, but don’t assume they’re good at teaching civilians. •They should ask about you. Your goals, your experience, your comfort level. If it’s all about them, move on. •Safety should be front and center. They need a plan, a trauma kit, and should talk safety early and often. •Check their online presence. Do they have student reviews? Do they list prices and course content clearly? •They should be respectful. If you’re in the LGBTQ+ community, a person of color, or new to guns, you should feel welcomed—not judged or tested. •Beware ego trips. If it’s just war stories, tough guy energy, or gear obsession, they’re not focused on teaching you. •Trust your gut. If anything feels off, walk away. There are plenty of good instructors who actually care. A good instructor doesn’t just make you a better shooter. They make you safer, more confident, and more prepared. Demand that.

What happens when a child learns that bad behavior rarely has any real consequences? 👀👀👀 All parents want well behaved children, but how many actually want to be strict and discipline them when they start crossing the lines? It can be easier to give in, ignore the behavior, or hope the child eventually grows out of it. The problem is that children are constantly learning where the boundaries are. If they discover that screaming, throwing a fit, talking back, refusing to listen, or deliberately breaking rules gets them what they want, there is very little reason for them to stop. Young children need boundaries because they are still learning self control. They need to know that when a parent says no, it actually means no. They need consistent consequences when they knowingly cross a line. That does not mean being harsh or losing your temper. Good discipline can be calm, reasonable, and firm. The goal is not to make a child afraid of their parents. It is to teach them that their choices have consequences and that other people deserve respect. There is also a difference between discipline and simply punishing a child. Discipline is about teaching. Sometimes that means taking away a privilege. Sometimes it means making a child correct what they did. Sometimes it means simply refusing to reward bad behavior with attention or a change of rules. Children who grow up with clear expectations often have a better understanding of how to behave when their parents are not around. Children who learn that every boundary can be negotiated may keep pushing until they find the limit. Parents don't have to be perfect, but they have to be willing to lead. If children are never taught where the boundaries are, how can we expect them to know when they've crossed them?

Is your toddler suddenly throwing (or dropping) everything they get their hands on? Food, toys… you name it. You’re not alone. This week I’ve been introducing play schemas, 9 common patterns that can help to demystify your toddler’s seemingly random behaviors. And you guessed it: this is one. We call it the trajectory schema. If you take nothing else away from this post, let it be this: your little one doesn’t throw things because they are misbehaving or “bad.” Babies throw things because they are babies. And they are learning as they do so. Learning about cause and effect. Learning about gravity. Learning what (and practicing something new) they can do with their bodies. Learning hand-eye coordination. It’s a completely normal part of development. And the fascination won’t last forever. The real question is, how do you manage it? First, be proactive. Expect that anything your little one handles might reasonably be thrown or dropped. So choose wisely, avoiding items that are valuable or might pose a danger to them or others if they suddenly took flight. Second, depending on the age of your child, begin introducing some natural consequences. Put the toy/object away temporarily after it is thrown (if throwing it is dangerous or inappropriate). And involve your child in the subsequent clean-up. You can also redirect. Explain which things are and are not for throwing. Model the correct use of these objects. Finally, lean into it. Recognizing that young children are drawn to throwing, provide items that are safe and acceptable to throw. Soft toys. Socks. Balls. And look for opportunities and settings for your little one to explore this urge safely and appropriately. How did you manage your toddler’s throwing phase? Welcome your tips and tricks!

🚨 CHICAGO PARENTS, GUARDIANS & COMMUNITY WE NEED TO TALK. 🚨 I’m going to say this because I am ANGRY, concerned, and tired of seeing this happen to our children. We are hearing about groups of young people going to other high schools and surrounding areas, jumping students, intimidating them and ROBBING them. And let me make something VERY clear this is not just something being talked about on social media. I have received inboxes from BOTH adults AND young people making us aware of what is happening. I have also seen videos that are extremely concerning. I am not going to expose the people who reached out to me. They trusted us enough to speak up, and we will respect their privacy. But we CANNOT ignore what we’re being told. And quite honestly, we are not seeing enough action being taken by the schools to stop this. So if the schools aren’t going to do enough to protect our children, THE COMMUNITY IS GOING TO STEP UP. 👊🏾 MEN OF OUR COMMUNITIES WE NEED YOU! If you are a responsible, community minded man who is available after school and willing to help, we are asking you to come out and help us patrol the areas around our schools. We WILL be out there. Not looking for fights. Not looking for confrontation. Not taking the law into our own hands. We will be there as a VISIBLE COMMUNITY PRESENCE watching out for our children, helping deter these groups from targeting students, and contacting school officials or law enforcement when necessary. Our kids need to see that the adults in their community are watching. They need to know that when they walk out of school, someone is looking out for them. This isn’t about one school, one neighborhood, or one group of kids. THIS IS ABOUT ALL OF OUR CHILDREN. If you’re a father, grandfather, uncle, mentor, coach, community leader, or simply a man who cares about our children and has the time to help WE NEED YOU TO STEP UP. And to the women and other community members who want to help WE NEED YOU TOO. ❤️ Let’s organize this the RIGHT way and create a safe, responsible presence around our schools and communities. 💪🏾 Our children deserve to feel SAFE walking into and out of school. Chicago, we cannot continue waiting until something tragic happens before we decide to act. If you’re willing to help, simply go to your neighborhood high school and monitor. WE ARE GOING TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN. ❤️🖤 ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. #ChicagoCrimeChasers #CCC #ChicagoParents #ChicagoCommunity #ProtectOurChildren #CommunitySafety #MenOfTheCommunity #ChicagoYouth #ItTakesAVillage #EnoughIsEnough
