In her words, she stated,
”DEAR PARENT, TRAIN YOUR KIDS WELL. LOVE YOUR KIDS AND TEACH THEM LOVE. LOVE, NOT ONLY TO THEMSELVES AND THEIR SIBLINGS, BUT ALSO TO EVERYONE AROUND THEM. TEACH THEM KINDNESS, TEACH THEM EMPATHY. YOU, AS A PARENT, STOP BEING WICKED TO PEOPLE AROUND YOU. YOUR KIDS ARE WATCHING, AND THEY WILL SURELY PICK UP THIS BAD TRAIT FROM YOU.”
