Quote by Skottie Young

“Ha-Ha. Son, they're children, not pets. We're not here to train them. Kids come into this world filled with their own ideas and ways to view the world. It's our job to help them realize those ideas even if they're different than our own. We need to try to see the world through their eyes, not force them to see it through ours.”
