        (I understand that’s not the point of the original tweet but) Every game designer reading this was like: “Jane MG homeschooling? That is going to be badass! Wonder if I’m too old to be enrolled?!”

        I was appalled at the idea of metal detectors in school five or so years ago. Now: bring it. #keepmykidssafe

        Whenever my 14 year old wants to stay in the car when I run an errand, I tell her to lock her door. She then recites, "lock your doors. Stay away from the windows. Lockdown, lockdown." It is a reality of school life now.

        We had Nuke drills as a kid. I suppose there are a few “bunker schooled” out there.
