Thank you for your courageous presentation. My four children are in between the ages of 30 and 40. I began hearing about this topic in the last year and began attending school board meetings. All these details I never experienced as a parent. I am in a season of educating myself on this topic. Though my children are grown, this is having a negative impact on our community.
