The dinner table falls silent as children compete with phones for their parents’ attention.

Online, we only want to share opinions that our followers will agree with.

Tickets: Premium: $40 for ticket, book, priority seating and priority book signing line. General Admission: $10 students | $20 General Public. Available at www.paloaltojcc.org/ End
