OUR VOICE COUNTS<\/b><\/p>\n
Dear Hispanic\/Latin U.S. families:<\/p>\n
Our community, as a whole, is living in challenging and strange times. More than ever we need to be united, looking out for each other, and listening to factual information that\u2019s being provided. As a parent, father of six, my wife and I need to make sure that our children are respectful and obey us for the sake of our friends and family members. Because as fun as it can be to go outside, visiting family\/friends, we need to take this more seriously than people are doing so.<\/p>\n
\u201cChildren, obey your parents. Parents, be firm with your children. But overall, just have fun with your family.\u201d \u2013Herbert Romero<\/p>\n
One day the weather is getting warmer<\/p>\n
And you feel a nice summer breeze coming ahead.<\/p>\n
But then school gets cancelled<\/p>\n
And the news shows hundreds in Italy are dead.<\/p>\n
With more incoming cases happening in Blaine County<\/p>\n
This is now reality, so please make sure to stay home.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t go out with your friends and laugh it off<\/p>\n
Because maybe then you might even bring it back home.<\/p>\n
As a young adult who wishes to be out just like you do, please be taking these instructions seriously. It is important in times like these to make the best of what we do have in our homes. I know this can be easier said than done, but for the sake of our parents, our friends, and other family members, be courteous of their health and wellbeing as well. We are in this together.<\/p>\n
\u201cTaylor Swift once said, \u2018No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.\u2019 So, let\u2019s be good and take care of one another during this time of need… but from a distance.\u201d<\/p>\n

NUESTRA VOZ CUENTA<\/b><\/p>\n
Querida familias Hispanas:<\/p>\n
Nuestra comunidad, est\u00e1 viviendo tiempos dif\u00edciles y extra\u00f1os. M\u00e1s que nunca, debemos estar unidos, cuidarnos y escuchar la informaci\u00f3n objetiva que se nos proporciona. Como padre de 6 hijos, mi esposa y yo debemos asegurarnos de que nuestros hijos sean respetuosos y nos obedezcan por el bien de nuestros amigos y familiares. Porque tan divertido como puede ser salir al exterior o visitar a familiares\/amigos, debemos tomar esto m\u00e1s en serio de lo que la gente lo hace.<\/p>\n
\u201cLos ni\u00f1os, obedecen a tus padres. Los padres, sean firmes con sus hijos. Pero en general, divi\u00e9rtete con tu familia.\u201d \u2013Herbert Romero<\/p>\n
Un d\u00eda el clima se est\u00e1 calentando<\/p>\n
Y sientes una agradable brisa de verano venir<\/p>\n
Pero luego la escuela se cancela<\/p>\n
Y las noticias muestran que cientos de personas en Italia est\u00e1n muertas.<\/p>\n
Con m\u00e1s casos entrantes en el condado de Blaine County<\/p>\n
Esto ya es realidad, as\u00ed que aseg\u00farate de quedarte en casa<\/p>\n
No salgas con tus amigos y te r\u00edas<\/p>\n
Porque tal vez entonces, incluso podr\u00edas traerlo de vuelta a casa.<\/p>\n
Como adulto joven, que desea salir como usted, tome estas instrucciones en serio. Es importante en momentos como estos, aprovechar al m\u00e1ximo lo que tenemos en nuestros hogares. S\u00e9 que esto puede ser m\u00e1s f\u00e1cil decirlo que hacerlo, pero por el bien de nuestros padres, nuestros amigos y otros miembros de la familia, sean corteses con su salud y bienestar tambi\u00e9n. Estamos en esto juntos.<\/p>\n
\u201cTaylor Swift dijo una vez, \u2018No importa lo que pase en la vida, es importante ser bueno con la gente. Ser bueno con la gente es un maravilloso legado para dejar atr\u00e1s.\u2019 Entonces, seamos buenos y cuidemos los unos de los otros durante este tiempo de necesidad… pero desde la distancia.\u201d<\/p>\n
