Remember the movie Legally Blond2? When the congresswoman says to the blond, it doesn’t waht you are going to say, it is your words against mine. They believe what we say, what we want them to believe. They do not care; you can’t make them care” she seemed to inform the blond.” To which the blond answered: “Watch me!” She took the challenge. The movie ended with congress passing the bill that no one would care to pass at one time about the caring of pets.

WHY? Not only because of conflicting agendas in Washington, the lack political will power but also the complacency of the public. We are all partly responsible for the lack of financial knowledge and skills of our children after they go through our K-12 system:

Because we continue to allow it to stand that way.

Like the congresswomen said: “No One Cares! People believe what we tell them.” Not enough people care!”

And even if there are people who say they care, they do not really care ENOUGH to go the extra miles to do what it takes to get their concerns noticed and get things moved or started!

We at AgahanView is starting a movement by inviting everyone to raise their hands and say to the same congresswoman :

“WATCH ME! I CARE!”; ask others to join and say “WE CARE!”. If we start and not give up and continue to join hands, forces and voices - pretty soon we will have WASHINGTON LISTENING to us. We will be able to put them on notice: that if they do not start doing what is right for and by our children and their children, we will boot them out there! And they better believe us.

Meanwhile we need to do our part. For after all it is also our belief that the primary party responsible for the education of our children is the parent. We as parents cannot provide or give what we do not have. So the first steps we offer to parents in the AgahanView community is Financial Parenting.
