I passed a classro0m today and overheard the following comment: "The State requires teachers to be licensed, but we don't need licensing to be a parent!"

The comment was made by the teacher, a coach, who was training a group of adults in sports coaching.

I don't know if he meant to ridicule the idea, support the idea or just get the group to laugh.

As I continued down the hall, a line that I heard from a Living Torah video, played in my mind, "You have to educate her from when she is little, that her purpose is to make a Jewish Home".

We don't need to be licensed, because we are already qualified.

G-d gives us children because he believes that we can raise them.

We, who follow in the path G-d created for us, educate our children to be parents.

If we don't, we're betraying G-d's trust.

If we do, we raise licensed parents.
