"We need more love in the world! We need more equality and justice for people, especially for people who are marginalized in our society.

Love always wins in the end!" - Tavo

Conversely, things that aren't all that important for a Kindergartner are still relevent to setting the framework for a successful adult life. Managing stress, managing finances, dealing with conflict.." - Jess
