Description

Have you seen someone with a disability in public and weren’t sure how to support your children with respectful, inclusive dialogue?  We don’t want to be offensive, but we also want to help our children understand the world. Well, Whitney Kallenbach and I dove into ways to address this topic with your kiddos as well as when it varies, i.e. a child versus an adult.  We had an honest conversation about questions we were both bringing to the table, along with personal experiences. Whitney works with veterans with disabilities and has a daughter who wore leg braces as a corrective device. Her experiences have changed how she intends to address this with her children.  I’m so excited for you to listen in on our raw conversation about how to be inclusive, respectful, and use person first language. Hop on over to www.voicesofyourvillage.com to snag your free list of books that include people with physical disabilities.  For the month of May 20% of all my sleep consultation proceeds go to Every Mother Counts, an amazing organization fighting to lower the maternal mortality rate at home and around the globe.  Head on over to www.seedandsew.org/packages to sign up for your sleep consultation today! https://seedandsew.org/ Music by: https://www.bensound.com/

Let's get real, this whole raising tiny humans thing is wild. That is why I created a place where parents, caregivers, teachers, and experts come together to create the modern parenting village. We can support one another on this crazy journey so it doesn't have to be this hard.
