Good Evening Parents, tonight I would like to talk to you about the

importance of volunteering and being involve with your children’s

“education”. And “what our Children have to face today such as crime,

drugs, and violence” something that I did not have to encounter when I

was growing up. Yes there was drugs, they were crimes and there was

violence but there was values, respect, love, guidance, and responsibility

my parents were there to teach me about values, respect, love, guidance,

and responsibility. And for that I have Thank them. Because of them I

learned that in order to keep my own children safe from all that, I had to

do my duty. To Teach Them the way I was Taught. To teach them

about values, respect, love, guide and to be responsible individuals

in order to make it in life.

It is sad that our children are being confronted with all this problems at

such a young age. But it is reality, as parents we have to do our part and

protect our children from all this. It is not easy being a parent now a

days. But yet, we cannot forget that it is our responsibility.

As parents we want what is best for them “what parent doesn’t”. It

takes hard work and leadership and believing in yourself. And that is

some of things we need to instill in our children. We can never say later

because later will be to late. Don’t forget we are our children’s first

and primary educators, nurturer, and advocates. It is us parents that

have to take the initiative to educate, nurturer, and advocate for our

children. And we have to start now. As our children enter the our

school systems we have to be ready. We have to volunteer and be a part

of their activities, be available for them.

Remember what you learned as a parent in Head Start, you get involve

in your child’s everyday activities. You go to every open house, you

ask questions when you don’t understand something, don’t let anyone

tell you different. Your there to advocate for your child. It is not easy

but we have to make the time and follow though so that they know that

your child is not alone that their is someone to speak out for him/her.

Sometimes, teachers are cruel and they think that the children are alone

and their is no one to advocate for them. Prove them wrong. Be their

don’t ever leave them alone. It is not the teachers job to teach them

about values, respect, love, guidance and responsibility it is our job as

parents.

Remember that in the school system you have to go to the office and

sign in and let them know you are going to visit your child’s classroom.

NO matter what we have to volunteer and be a part of what is going

on in the schools.

Our children need to know that WE are their to support them and guide

them in the decisions
