How to Raise Inclusive Children
To fill the educational and moral voids created by anti-DEI policies and book bans, it's more important than ever for parents to strengthen DEI's foundational values of compassion and fairness for ALL humans at home.
To help, our brand focuses exclusively on providing parents with practical, step-by-step instructions to proactively and efficiently prepare kids for the real world.
Parents need answers
It's parents who need answers to the inevitable questions their kids ask about what's happening in the world. And it's parents who will be having follow-up conversations, deciphering mixed messages, responding to shifting school policies and ultimately, steering the moral compass of the next generation.
3 Key Questions We Answer:
1. How do I shape my child's perception of the world and their place in it?
2. What are some age-appropriate ways I can teach my child the importance of respecting all identities, including LGBTQ+, immigrants, race, religion, financial status, disability, world culture, age, and gender?
3. How can I educate myself about various identities, cultures, and experiences so I can I set an example of inclusivity for my child?
