How was your week last week? It was pretty good, pretty busy. You know, we had lots of sports, some activities to do. Then oh, our local school PTA hosted a nice community event – a movie night for the kids, families, free of charge. But of course, like, the kids have all the fun, PTA does all the work. Are you involved? I used to be super involved when my kids were in elementary and middle school, and they always loved it when I was there. They would see me, they would get all excited. Of course, now with high schoolers, they kind of look the other way. But you have little ones, so how are you doing? I know you’re pretty involved. I am pretty involved, and I encourage all parents to get involved in your local community. The PTA is just another community opportunity. You get to know what’s going on with the school. You get to be there not only for your student and your children, but also the other needs of students and children in the area. You get to support the teachers because, unfortunately, it’s crucial – teachers don’t have a lot of support.

Yeah, they need things, they want things. They just don’t have the manpower always to do it. And I think the most important thing is both the teachers and the parents and the community – ultimately everyone wants a healthy child. And I do believe that advocating for your children is a part of keeping them healthy. Absolutely. So look into your school’s PTA. Be there for your kiddos and their teachers, and be a prime support system. Absolutely.
