Juan on Juan on Juan: ?

I spent a wonderful afternoon at Everest Academy talking about how ordinary citizens can provide better alternatives to the measures proposed in House Bill 5043. Most, if not all, of the speakers insisted that developing the proper perspective regarding reproductive health should involve both the parents and their children. In my capacity as resource speaker for both the I AM S.T.R.O.N.G program and I Keep Love Real, I suggested that the interaction between parents and their children should take the form of a continuing conversation as opposed to magisterial lectures dripping with all pomp, verbosity, and the promise of fire and brimstone that indignant and well-meaning parents are wont to deliver in the heat of the moment.

Sadly, the continuing conversation that I had begun in my tv show, Juan on Juan, has to end. Despite the fact that the show had been performing beyond expectations, I chose to stop doing the show precisely because I wanted to spend more time nurturing my growing family. My advocacy, which is really about the choice to love, begins at home. There is no question in my mind that as much as I love having a forum to promote intelligent discussion of my favorite causes, I love my family more. And so, with as little pomp and circumstance as I can muster, I bid a fond farewell to my burgeoning career as a tv personality. Thank you to all the people who came on the show, and to all the people who, despite the horribly inconvenient time slot, faithfully followed the program.

And now, more ordinary than ever, I continue to support life by helping my family grow in love. What a blessing!
