Michelle supports all the policies, especially the Parents Rights Policies of Governor Youngkin's regarding Schools.
She is watching how the current School Board has invited a LGBTQIA+ focused organization into the Clarke County High School & Middle Schools to talk to Students, without even asking parents if they want this group speaking to their children. Pediatricians should be the first healthcare providers talking with their patients as child any psychiatrists use as the Standard of Care for all children, physicians ALWAYS rule our physical health related issues causing behavioral issues, BEFORE a mental health issue is discussed or diagnosed.
Michelle is running because she's wants parents & children to have access to not only Lt. Governor Sears policies, which she champions on School Choice but, Michelle also wants "Money Follows Child" implemented. If we had the money for each student in its own fund & not put into one big fund, there would be more freedom for Students' Education but likely extra money would be identified & returned to taxpayers.
As a Pediatric RN, Michelle remodeled Fosterchildren after children were missing. Decades later, we now know what happened to those poor children Michelle fought to save.
Michelle said "Nursing training allowed me to easily identify problems in bureaucratic system which led to system not protecting children, like it was tasked to do. When overseeing children we must always air on the side of safety & protection."
Michelle also serves as Nurse Expert Witness. She has helped win million of dollars for children injured in hospitals, in medical malpractice cases. The money helps with the care for these children's life-long injuries, which are a result from hospital staff neglecting the children when they were under the hospital's care after surgery.
Michelle decided to write this book with her husband "Rog" Smithwick. Children who participated in their farm's Pony Camps - "Smithwick's Hall of Fame Pony Camps" which often led to parents having similar questions on how to get their child moving forward with horses, such as, buying a pony, going to horse shows, developing greater horseback riding skills, etc.
There is one chapter dedicated to helping children with disabilities using therapeutic horseback riding.
Michelle is running because she's fed up with people telling kids there's something wrong with them, as they go through normal growth experiences. She believes children should always be encouraged that they are wonderful, no matter their shape or size or look - even if they have disabilities. Michelle, like most people, does not want children suffering with life-long sterilization from hormones and surgeries because they are going through normal peaks & valleys in life or, possibly consuming food over-dosed with hormones such as synthetic estrogen & progesterone which offsets boys natural testosterone, which happens to contain the boys' needed growth hormones.
Sadly, social media & some TV shows are trying to rewrite history, inserting Critical Race Theory & again, indoctrinate children with talk about sexuality - robbing them of their childhoods.
Current School Board does end-round around Parents, Grandparents, Guardians, Taxpayers & Gov. Youngkin's Executive Order regarding Parent's Rights & School Transparency.
School Choice Policy - Money Follows Child Creating Line Items for Each Child's Education Fund.
