I really feel every kid needs a class to teach 'life skills'. This class would teach about money, relationships, socializing, social media and respect and what does respect mean. I also feel it should be a required class to move to the next grade. Entering Middle-School is a perfect time to teach it
Very negative impact on personal skills, interaction with others, Parents are to lax in checking on and limiting screen time. Get those kids outside playing with friends!!
I have a teenage daughter without social media. She has the option to have social media and declined. She stated that it’s distracting and that it bothers her how much her peers are using it.
It represents the heart of Sisters that has always been a western town with logging , cows and horses . we also have one of the most popular rodeos on the west coast Sisters Rodeo !
It’s befitting of our culture, our way of life. The Sisters Rodeo has made this town prosper..There is no “danger” putting this on the round about, that’s a silly reason to not want it there.
I live in Bend where we have many roundabouts, where we have various artwork, and I've not seen a situation where I feel drivers were distracted, even in our high traffic roundabouts. In my opinion that's a red herring. I think the statue would be an asset to Sisters promoting its history.
They don't know how to think for themselves!

ReplyAbsolutely,get outside!
ReplyDuh! Ya think? Take their smartphone away for a few hours and see what happens, a total meltdown. It's not a habit but an addiction, wake up parents!
