How do Child Day Care Staff Evaluate Margo Logan's Teaching on Recognizing and Reporting Child Abuse?

In uncluttering and organizing my paperwork I ran across comments made by class participants in the class I teach (for the last seven years) on recognizing and reporting child abuse; and thought my reading public might be interested to know what child day care staff think of me in the way and in the manner I gift my knowledge and expertise to them; how I respect them.  I've been uplifted by the many great hearted people I have met through teaching my class. They show me folks are hungry and thirsty for truth telling and are gratified to learn that their intuition and knowledge is high class. 

When I worked inside DSHS the managers told us that day care providers were dumb so dumb we really needed to have materials written at a fourth grade level for them.  I've met many educated, well read folks coming through my class.  In fact every class we each share a recommendation for a book or a film for each other to perhaps read or see.  There, indeed, are many high class individuals who come through my class.
