It is like the great philosophers have written - hold ye in steadfast ways that ye shall be true to where you came from. Bullies on the playground grow up to be big bullies and that is not good. And then when the parents show up with their fat checkbook it is like they are just trying to buy their children out of trouble. Sadly today's society keeps asking that girls keep their acts together and to do it on their own. But history is rife with incidents of those who get always get and those that don't seem to do much but just hover right below keeping their act together on their own, Sadly a lot of the parents who buy their kids out of trouble have never visualized the paradoxes of their actions and it just fosters this whole notion of "not." These platforms have to be sustainable. You can talk and smile and be your message but if the platform can't transcend the interview room then it is all for naught.
