Things to Remember “Parenting is about us, the parents. We do not need to try to make our children into something but instead, model the behavior that we would like our children to learn.” “We are all the best parents for our unique child, and we all do great things.” “Time is a huge privilege, and we must acknowledge that.” “Everyone and every child deserves the same access.” “Parenting and being a caregiver are two distinct jobs when they merge; that's two full-time jobs!” “We talk about disability as one of the many facets of who my child is a whole and complete human.” “It reduces our ignorance when we are genuinely curious about other humans as humans.” “The number one determiner of how a child will feel about their sibling's disability is how the parents feel about the disability and what they are projecting.” -Kelley Coleman Click here for more from Jeanne-Marie, Your Parenting Mentor.
