    Thanks for posting this powerful video on your blog. You’re right…it IS a must-see for all parents!

    I’d also like to add it is a must-see for all educators and legislators, too. Every state should have a required vision screening disclaimer for parental notification, or “Amy’s Law,” and every child entering kindergarten should have an eye examination by an eye doctor.

    Our children deserve the best. Vision screenings are out-of-the-question. Comprehensive eye and vision examinations are the answer. :)
