8:37 am
that's fame. it's different than being a hero. i thought i have so many heroes better for them. there's a line of heroes and we talk about when they're famous instead of when they're a small kill. it's a true story. when rosa parks was 11 years old, a boy came by, shoved her down. she popped up and shoved him back. the boy was white. you didn't do that. the mother comes back and says i'll have you put in jail for life. what she does is she stands up to the mother, more importantly stands up for hess and said your son bothered me, i don't want to be bothered anymore. she said the mother and the boy never picked on her again and i want my son to hear that story, i want my father to hear that story. >> if you look at her, the fact
8:38 am
she stood up then is indicative of what you do on a bus. >> you show them and the kids understands that. my young son was being bullied a couple of weeks ago in the cafeteria. my older son was reading the book. he said you need to be like rosa parks and stand up to the bully. my younger son said i need to be lie rosa parks. i love it. we've read doris kerwin's book. didn't know this story that when abraham lincoln was a little boy he came across other boys who were putting hot coals on top of turtles. >> it's one of my favorite stories. when bray ham ling con was 150 years old, he comes pound these turtles. they're putting hot coals on the turtles. he has to figure out what to do. when you're a little kid or 4 years old, sometimes it's hard to do the right thing but someone has to.
8:39 am
he stands up and says take the coals off the turtles, my son said, dad, i want to be like him. i want to help people. >> abraham lincoln is known for writing. >> he writes his first essay about being kind of animals and to share those stories i always want to give my kids good lessons, but the best lesson you can show them is give it. i believe ordinary people change the world. i don't care where you went to school, how much money you make. that's nonsense to me. i believe regular people and the affect of change in the this world. >> so there's a common theme here, standing up to what you thifrmgt is not right. >> i am amelia earhart is about knowing know bounds. abraham lincoln is about standing up for others, rosa parks, standing up for herself.
