Oh my gosh, little girls do not "plot" lol. Boys can be little monsters who terrorize the class (both sexes) in every way. this is factually true. it's crazy how much so many women hate girls.
I really enjoy this podcast, I just wish the episodes were longer. I listen to it on the way to work (at a preschool) and it gives me energy and inspiration.
