    “Elizabeth, frigidly stretched,
    On a spring day surprised us
    With her starched dignity and the quietness
    Of her hands clasping a black cross.”

    “Someday soon, we hope that all middle and high school will have required courses in child rearing for girls and boys to help prepare them for one of the most important and rewarding tasks of their adulthood: being a parent. Most of us become parents in our lifetime and it is not acceptable for young people to be steeped in ignorance or questionable folklore when they begin their critical journey as mothers and fathers.”
    —James P. Comer (20th century)
