Description

Maybe you know what it’s like – your kid sees another kid at the store or in school that is different from them, and they don’t know how to act. They try to look at them out of the corner of their eye, maybe they giggle, or they loudly ask you what that thing is they sitting on and if they can get one. Sure, it’s embarrassing, but it’s in no way a reflection of your parenting. Rather than shushing your child and moving on like it never happened, you can take this as an opportunity to teach your children about inclusion. In this episode, we had a conversation with the infamous Laura Wifler, co-founder and executive director of Risen Motherhood. On top of producing content for Risen Motherhood, Laura is also an author of multiple books and creates resources for moms, kids, and families. Laura has a daughter with a rare genetic condition – in this episode, she shares some parenting tips to help teach children on how to react around others with disabilities, practice acceptance, and maybe even make a new friend! Enjoy! In this episode, we discuss:
  • How to train your kids to act around children with disabilities – and find similarities instead!
  • How inclusion has improved (or not improved) in church.
  • Moving from tolerance to acceptance.
  • How to have conversations about inclusion with your children with regard to the LGBTQ community.
  • Why it’s important to have friends who are different from us.
  • How Laura manages all the things in her life – because she is one busy lady!
