Parents don't make mistakes because they don't care, but because they care so deeply. - T. Berry Brazelton
Two quotes about passion, motivation and wisdom from the week 2 segment:
"working intently with children and families was almost like getting a doctorate, because every year there was always a specific challenge that I was in charge of and I hat to meet it, i had to meet it for me, in terms of what I was modeling for my staff, and what they would be taking away and incorporate into their own personal repertoire and because of the families." - Renatta M. Cooper

ReplyDeleteI love that quote. As a parent that is so true. It is also true for educators. We try so hard to do the best for our students and our own children and sometimes we do make mistakes. But we learn from those mistakes and do better the next time.
I too liked the way Louise Derman-Sparks described her passion for what she does. The quote that you used says it all!
ReplyDeleteWhat better way to contribute to the world than through children.
You chose some very important quotes from your significant contributors especially Berry Brazelton. Mistakes are common and we all make mistakes but also learn from them. Interesting one from Renatta Cooper, can relate to this one.
ReplyDeleteLauren,
ReplyDeleteIt is my sincere hope and prayer that T. Berry Brazelton is right.
