There’s a lot we don’t agree on in this country.

Love isn’t enough -- especially when you have kids. Love doesn’t pay the bills or pick up the domestic load at home.

There was a change of power in the White House this week and it only seems appropriate to talk about politics, specifically how we can discuss politics with those who don’t necessarily align with our views.

Do you think we need to agree with people in order to respect them or befriend them? Maybe you’ve been unfriended by someone who doesn’t see eye to eye with you politically, or your kid has come from school saying disparaging things about another kid’s family because of who they’re voting for.

I can’t think of a better way to close out our college series than with a conversation about WHO our kids want to be rather than WHAT they want to do.
