Welcome

To follow the educators blog visit educator-parentfusion.blogspot.com



It is an exciting time to be raising kids, although that does not make it simple by any means.

Your comments and opinions are greatly appreciated. We are here to discuss ideas (old and new) in both education and parenting. I believe there is a very important triad in childrearing that consists of the child/adolescent, the parent(s) and educator(s). My goal is to provide avenues for continuous support and communication between all three. For it is in the care and nurturing of all three participants that the hope for the future lies. No one element of this triad can carry all of the weight. All three must be supported in order to relieve the perceptions of stress and achieve balance.

I am excited that you have found this blog - I hope you find some intriguing and empowering thoughts that inspire you to join the conversation and help me spread inspiration, energy and ideas to everyone involved in this vitally important link to our future (is there anyone who is not connected in some way?!) We have lots to do!


I look forward to many inspirational discussions.

Most successful young people don’t look inside and then plan a life.

It’s Not About You - NYTimes.com


This is an interesting view on what today graduates are facing.  Are they prepared for the real world?  This author doesn't think so.  What do you think?  
I do find his final comment - "The purpose in life is not to find yourself. It's to lose yourself." to be somewhat enlightening, but you'll have to read the article to get his point.   :)
