on Finding Solutions: Arts Education
It is very important for art and music classes like that in school. It helps children to dream and have creativity. If there is no art in school then we might not have all the great artists, singers, song that we know and love today. These classes let kids get their "feet wet" to see if they want to continue doing art in their life. I learned how to write poems in one of my art class and I think it made it so that I love the writen word and it helped me in all my future studies and help my grades in school. Plus it has helped my jobs that I have chosen to do.

on Challenges for the National Guard
My hubby was hurt in basic and has to fight tooth and nail for any help. But on the other side my father in law who is faking every thing has gotten everything handed to him. This is not right! There should be better steps for soldiers when they come back. I work for the national gurard as a civ (Civilian) and I am proud of all the soldiers that fought or fight for my rights, but some of them are abusing the system. I really think that my father in law is one of theose people that the AP artical is talking about and it makes me so angry when people abuse the system.
