1. They should have a parade to honor their intelligence,

courage, passion and perseverance. I wish people would stop calling them kids or children. It lessons their status to me (a first grade teacher of children/kids). They are young adults who are also students who are more thoughtful, reasonable and eloquent than of most of the adults that I have met in my lifetime.
Thanks for posting '21 !!!!

8. +++++++ Bigman - I shall happily join that parade!!!!!!

And THANK YOU for for being a teacher!!!

Now you must forgive me, but I am an old woman who never had children, and I am consistently referring to these remarkable young adults as “my darling babies!!” and/or “The Kids” - with a heart full of love and respect -

These young adults are literally unfucking my life and I owe them

EVERYTHING

back!

5. Can you post this for teachers to have their students do this

in class? My class wrote a "Thank you" letter a week to various people and the recipients really cherished it.

9. Gladly, if I only knew how? - I do believe this has been posted on Facebook numerous

times (I do not FB myself - so I think these darling, beloved young adults will be greeted with tons of written LOVE LETTERS!!!

11. I don't use social media either.

Maybe post it under the "education" forum on DU?
