Director's Statement
Katrina was inspired to write this story because she started to consider every major life decision that needs to go through some kind of acceptance process. When applying to college you must show a report card for proof of good grades. When interviewing for a job, you must provide references to show proof you are qualified. When applying for a mortgage loan, you must show a credit score to show proof you will pay it back. So what would it look like if parenthood required the same approval process?
