Just like in any profession. I am a daycare provider and there are those very few that are abusive and hurt a child and we all get the fall out for that too. kruethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05921074648456614644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436337434445842616.post-79551941633499772282020-06-05T19:57:36.884-04:002020-06-05T19:57:36.884-04:00Erin, Blessings as you look honestly for ways you ...Erin, Blessings as you look honestly for ways you and your family can use your circle of influence for Godliness.Sheri Hawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01793306141253278799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436337434445842616.post-52442990901109298782020-06-05T15:55:04.031-04:002020-06-05T15:55:04.031-04:00Thank you for this post.

I am a middle aged white woman with 2 young boys and I have spent the last week deep in prayer, self reflection and in conversation with my husband about systemic racism. I do think this is a matter of the heart, but as someone who has experienced privilege her entire life, I think it is really important that I hold my self accountable for my role in systemic racism. I'm spending a lot of time trying to educate myself and listening and figuring out what to do next.

I believe in the right to protest, but these riots are destroying other individual's properties and has nothing to due with the death of Mr. Floyd. I prayer continually for our country and trust God to bring us through this.Cathiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00204859950618702920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436337434445842616.post-23319543441835021352020-06-05T13:40:36.783-04:002020-06-05T13:40:36.783-04:00Well-said - thank you!Well-said - thank you!Angelanoreply@blogger.com
