Manage episode 449936085 series 3609932
On this episode of Teacher Mom Talks, we’re talking about one of the most powerful lessons we can pass on to our children—love and acceptance. Today, I dive into why talking about the 2SLGBTQ + community to my students and children is so important. As a teacher and a mom, I've seen firsthand how embracing diversity and understanding can shape the empathetic leaders of tomorrow. In a world often divided, it's crucial to equip the next generation with the mindset of inclusivity.
Join me as I share my experiences navigating conversations about gender identity and sexual orientation with my students, from supporting a transgender student through their journey to celebrating Pride Month in a meaningful way. I'll also talk about how we handle these discussions at home, ensuring my own children grow up knowing that love is love.
Expect heartfelt stories that showcase both the challenges and joys of teaching about the 2SLGBTQ+ community. Whether it's a kindergarten chat about having two moms or junior high students educating me on pride flags, these moments have been truly enlightening.
So, pour yourself a big cup of coffee, kick back, and let's have an open, honest, and uplifting discussion about why learning to love is the ultimate lesson we can teach. Tune in and remember, we’re in this together!
