In Support of Children and Families
In preparation for this assignment:
Recall an event from your childhood involving a challenge in which someone “stood up†for you or did not, and the effects of that support or lack of support.
My parents divorced when I was 12 years old, I was the oldest of five children, and it still affects me today. At that time being caught in the middle, try to understand, and when the divorce is the talk of the town, people making joke about it … The only support it was from my mother but she was the most strong women I knew.
Choose three that you would like to explore more deeply
Then:
Turn each into an action statement that demonstrates the ways in which a person might “stand up†for children and/or families.
