Growing up i did attend an elementary school that was very family centered and would try to include having parents as guests. the fondest memories i have is that during holidays like christmas lower grades like from 1st grade-3rd and 4-5th graders would have holiday choir class performances and would have parents come to see their kids perform, and with performances there was also talent shows that parents would come to as well. i remember fondly being in 5th grade each class would have a dance performance in front of parents nd the whole school, staff included and it was a very fun time to look back on; like learning the choreography with other classmates and seeing it all unfold. overall it was a joyful yet youthful experience and i'm glad that my parents were there sometimes to see some performances.

the memories i've had and dealing with seperation was something that very rare but as i got older i realized that, feeling that seperation from family isn't always physical and can be feeling  mentally separated from family. as a child i would feel seperation physically from my parents if i were away from them for a couple of days, and i remember being 10 and feeling so sad and missing them when they were away on a trip.

This Artifact Well day is something represents my culture, well in general with any cultures i feel as if it represents in a way of celebrating our loved ones who have passed on into the afterlife, In spanish it is called "Dia of De Los Muertos" meaning day of the dead. and celebrates and just in prayers for those who have passed and in remembrance. it holds a special day and not many celebrate it, but with my family we celebrate it by making all kinds of foods, like tamales or pozole and many delicious desserts as well, and we also decorate the pictures of our loved ones that have passed and have candles and flowers next to and surrounding them.

What Society tells me about my culture is that we are only good for harvesting things and that we're taking away millions of jobs away from others and makes my parents generations and past feel as if judged. another thing society things as when it comes to women owning their rights and loving their bodies and only for themselves and society sees it as oh well they're full of themselves or conceited when in reality it is not, as woman we are finding ourselves and loving it. by supporting those truths by just living the best life we can and all the downfalls and hard situations that helped my family and woman in general become stronger.

Hi, Guadalupe.
Reading your post boosted my confidence that we shouldn't be afraid as women to be happy and embrace our bodies. Social Media as given a perspective on how women should look like but in reality we could look like however we want and embrace it. -Diana M.

The Obstacles i have faced throughout my childhood through teen years, were very good but not the best i did have a good childhood growing up, but as soon as my teens hit it was a very long dark and crazy path dealing with family emotional abuse that i've been very much proud to overcome and slowly heal from it now in my adult years even though i'm still young and 21.  i think overcoming things and life itself no matter the age we're always going to be unfolding new layers and old and healing our trauma, learning new ways of coping whether it's journaling, painting anything for the matter. we're always growing and changing with life as we go and sometimes we don't notice even the little changes we make.

i can honor this growth and new transition into pushing myself and getting through any situation by letting myself to take a minute to jus breathe and put life on a pause, it's very much important in my opinion to always put yourself and needs first.

One of the main Social Injustices that still keeps me up at night and still to this day is something that hasn't been equally resolved is the police shootings and not holding them accountable for their wrongs just because they are in higher power, ever since the tragically George Floyd passing and many others, this has been going on for years and many people and including myself are very much tired of seeing so many people pass and all police. get would being suspended while on pay which is not right at all. through out all last year i've attending many protests and wanting to see change in the system and better laws, because the system is horrible and the foster system as well and would very much so for all the people who have passed or have had trouble with the police to rightfully so get their justice.

Hello Guadalupe, Yes! police brutality is a real thing!  People need justice for these horrible doings that Police do. We need a better system on how to control the Police department. -Diana M.

Holding bad cops accountable is so important!!! And understanding the differance between holding them accountable and receiving justice for what they did.

Overall i believe all the information i've learned within. this class and writing these journals i've learned more about myself, that having all the patience is virtue in the world of child development and working with children in general, for a few years i was so back and fourth on what i wanted to do as a career and people or family would try to force me into doing something completely different because of the money or would shut my idea down of working with kids because it wouldn't bring in alot money and to me i love kids i've always had and decided it's something i've always seen myself doing it's amazing journey to witness growth and help learning toddlers grow.
