Dr Laura Padilla-Walker changed my life.
Her 8 AM Child Development class I never missed made me wonder if maybe I should switch my major.
Her Adolescent Development class made me know I was for sure in the right major.
Her Moral Development class made me think and write and learn in a WHOLE NEW WAY!!!!
She almost convinced me to stick with research instead of nursing  (quite a feat!)

And she made it so I now can't get married. hahaha

She was a brilliant researcher....still is of course.

And while I was in one of her classes she had a study published about video games.


In this study she found that VIOLENT video games are REALLY REALLY harmful.
