Krista Ramsey

Krista Ramsey seems like a very intelligent women who really knows how to write. I recently read her article 'Raising kids to embrace the world, then they do'. This article was about taking your kids to the airport to fly off to college and you're just staying strong and then as soon as you get back into your car- the tears start coming. She also touched on how kids are always complaining and smoldering under loads of high school homework and parents continue to tell them that it is worth knowing and learning later on. Parents also continuously tell us that there are amazing jobs to have, places to see and live. And then we finally listen- we go to college somewhere in a different time zone or spend our summers somewhere far away and finally realize that it was worth it. After reading Krista's story I think teens take a lot of what we have and what we are given for granted, our parents have to deal with how moody and how much we complain and yet it still breaks their hear when we leave. All in all reading this story made me want to be more thankful and be a better daughter.
