SOMETIMES WE DON’T REALIZE THE IMPACT WE HAVE AS ROLE MODELS FOR OUR CHILDREN

BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – I wanted to share with everyone a great story that I was recently made aware of about one of our Deputies and a class project that his daughter did describing what she wanted to be when she grows up.

I think sometimes, each of us in our hustle and bustle lives takes for granted or forgets just how big an impact we have on our children as role models, but this story truly grabs the essence of just how much our kids pay attention to our actions and how our love for what we do can transcend down to them.

Recently, Jasalin Hope, the daughter of Brevard County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Justin Hope and his wife Tina, had to write a paper about what she wanted to be when she grows up.

Eight-year old Jasalin shared with her teacher and class that when she grows up she wants to be a Field Training Officer (FTO) just like her Dad who is assigned to our Training Precinct as one of our Field Training Officers. In her paper and accompanying picture she shares with everyone how FTOs save our citizens and how the world would be dangerous and filled with “bad guys” if not for FTOs.

Jasalin is clearly proud of her dad, as are we and wants to follow in his footsteps.

As if wanting to follow in her dad’s footsteps wasn’t awesome enough Jasalin also drew a picture of her and her dad together that included two American Flags to show just how patriotic she is.

Sometimes we send our kids messages through our actions, about things that we never even realize. Regardless, if it is about being patriotic, loving our career, treating people with respect and fairness, or loving our family we have to always remember that we are role models for our children and that we are responsible for raising the next generation of parents.

Great job Jasalin, mom Tina, and Dad and just so you know we are extremely proud of your Dad and all of our Brevard County Sheriff’s Office members who do everything they can to protect our citizens and community!
