Introduction
July 21st, 2006
“We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It’s easy to say ‘It’s not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.”
Mr. Rogers is one of my favorite people in the world. When it came to the world of children, he understood who and what they are about. I’m joining the world of blogging so that we can widen the circle of conversation about the people known as children. I hope that my students and colleagues will join this conversation; as well as folks I’ll never meet in the world of the Internet.
My paying job is as a full-time Education faculty member at a small rural community college. I’ve spent over thirty years in the industry of early care and education. I suppose that gives me a lot of opinions; perhaps so. Mostly I hope it provides me with a background to begin to think aloud with others about children and the challenging and changing world we give them to live in. My non-paying life includes community service, gardening, sewing, reading very eclectically and soon to be labeled as a grandmother.
I look forward to our conversations.
