Through the Thou, man becomes I.—Martin Buber, I and Thou, 1965[1]
Over the course of conducting and analyzing the research that informs this book, I became a mother—twice over. And while cliché, this experience changed me. For in addition to looking at life through the lens of an educator, I began to see it through the eyes of a parent. Like most parents, I love my two girls more than I could have ever fathomed. And more than anything, I want to raise them in a way that nurtures their unique spirits and enables them to thrive and grow into the human beings they were born to be. But I also realize that my husband and I will not be the only two adults raising these girls or shaping their experiences of the world. In fact, for a significant chunk of their lives, they will spend more waking hours in schools than they will with us. In these settings, teachers will be the adults who raise them, influencing their development at pivotal moments.
