The parallels to the tragic problems amongst all NGBs is frightening. USASF and Varsity should be protecting these children rather than being concerned about their brands. https://t.co/1vQ87LamsA

Enough is enough is enough. Gun control may not completely stop these shootings but why in the hell wouldn’t we and our politicians do EVERYTHING in our/their power to make it harder for these tragedies to occur. We need change. Not tomorrow. Not in the next cycle.

I am broken. I’m still a mess. And, my children are still alive. That’s not something that parents of 19 children in Texas can say today. I literally cannot fathom what those parents are feeling.

My daughter responded, without missing a beat: “Don’t worry, I won’t get shot.”
As soon as the door shut, I lost it.

I rarely drop my kids off at school - work gets in the way too often. Today, it worked out for me to drop off of my 3rd and 5th graders. I pulled up to the roundabout, they opened their doors, I instinctually said: “be safe.” (I’ve never said that to them at school drop off.) 4/7

My oldest (7th grader) said that they practiced once and it was good because it was during PE in the locker room so there are no windows to worry about.
It is so maddening and so sad that these are the conversations we must now have with our kids.
That was not all.

Our youngest (3rd grader) quickly rattled off their school drill, which included hiding “in the best place you can find,” not moving and staying away from the door and windows. She said it was “fun.” The innocence and purity was so clear.
