My 6th grader after picking her up from school today: “Dad, I had the best day ever!” Me: “Why?” “My teachers told me that they liked me!” That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. Students want to been seen, appreciated, and loved by teachers. Thank you @LiberationATL ✊🏾

My 12 year old daughter just told me that she wants to be a motivational speaker. And I said, why wait? Let’s start now. #aminaspeaks
