Sometimes it is taken for granted but because I am so close to it and because I see the quality of what they do daily, I appreciate it above all else. Good parenting abounds in this community. I read in the paper and see in writing complaints from schools and the media about the lack of good parenting. I'm sure that there is some truth to it. However, I see daily, and over time, quality parenting going on in the Moharimet community.
Parents do things for their children and encourage children to do things for themselves.
I see parents supporting our efforts at education. I see parents allowing children to have some voice in how much they do and where they do it. I see parents visible in the school and their children proud of it. I see parents advocating for their children in the school when they think there is a need. I see parents wondering aloud how to do a better job of parenting.
