Everything I need to know about parenting I learned from the children's classic "Flap Your Wings"
Page from the children's book "Flap Your Wings," showing an alligator in the water waving up to a bird near a nest in a tree branch above the water: "You know," said Mrs. Bird, "I don't think Junior was a bird at all!' "It doesn't matter," Mr. Bird said. "He's happy now. And just look at him swim!"

L.A. City Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez warned us all this was coming after federal agents descended on a local park:
Hernandez warned elected officials nationwide about the possibility of an ICE raid in their cities. "We are the canary in the coal mine," she said. "What you see happening in MacArthur Park is coming to you. A new $140 billion budget for ICE (will be used to) transport what's happening in our neighborhoods to your front doorstep. "Wake up."

How we care for our most vulnerable reveals what we believe about ourselves. I'm just one mother, and David is just one child. But this affects your neighbors. This affects you. At one point or another most of us will lose our independence, health, rationality and will. Eventually we will rely wholly on someone else to care for us. Dependence, weakness, need of others: These are features, not bugs, of the human experience.
