"I went to a small private elementary school in Pacific Palisades called The Village School, and the quote “It takes a village to raise a child” was used in many a speech there. I believe it was even written on a wall. It’s not that I don’t believe in it. I believe that it takes parents and grandparents and aunts and uncles and mentors to shape a child’s education, and I believe that teachers come in all shapes and sizes. I am grateful for the strong community around my husband and me and feel blessed that the “bean” will have a multitude of friends and role models. But it doesn’t take a village to carry a pregnancy to full term."
