Laura Bush
I was the same way after graduating with a degree in education. I started to teach and I was wondering: do I really know how to teach?
Laura Bush
I don't really feel like I have to have a debate with my husband over issues.
Laura Bush
We seldom give each other advice-I think that's the success of 25 years of marriage.
Laura Bush
We all, parents, educators, community leaders, and every... citizen, need to come together to find new ways to engage children with the natural environment.
Laura Bush
Maybe it is the media that has us divided.
Laura Bush
All people need to know how AIDS is transmitted, and every country has an obligation to educate its citizens. This is why every country must also improve literacy, especially for women and girls, so that they can make wise choices that will keep them healthy and safe.
Laura Bush
When you read with your child, you show them that reading is important, but you also show them they're important - that they are so important to you that you will spend 20 minutes a day with your arm around them.
