@tedcruz I'm very confused how his rhetoric divides a nation, but yours is acceptable.

Meet my buddy Carter who has been battling rhabdomyosarcoma. Unfortunately, this amazing family is now having to focus on quality of life over curative treatments. I want to fulfill 2 of his bucket list items! Meeting @taylorswift13 and going to a Lakers game. Who can help me?!

@ashley_conine Haha....truth... apparently teaching, grad school, moving, and creating life didn't leave any room for Twitter 😂

@Conine3rd Highlight of my day: teaching with you...not the highlight of my day: seeing those pics of my pregnant self

My goal is to teach children how to think, not what to think, and how to fill the world with empathy and compassion, not hateful rhetoric and name-calling. Im proud to be a "loser" teacher.

[Tara Bordeaux @Darkroom920]

As a “loser” teacher, I promise I teach students their voice is more important than mine, & their thoughts should be their own @DonaldJTrumpJr. But you’re right. They SHOULD be taught to think freely, logically, & empirically. Also - how to respect others & avoid hateful rhetoric
