19: Raising Kids Who Include Others

Sometimes life can get a little lonely: when we move to a new town, start a new job, go to a new school. But all it takes is one person reaching out to help us feel like we belong—and that sense of belonging has a huge impact at any age. This week, Emily’s talking about how to raise kids who include others, because being an includer is the best way to create a kinder world. And she’s invited a very special guest on the show: her ten-year-old son Brady! Emily and Brady talk about what it was like for Brady to be the new kid at school a few years ago, how he felt when others included him, and how he’s tries to keep an eye out for kids who might feel alone like he once did.    **Thank you to our episode sponsors!** POLICYGENIUS | You could save $1,300 or more per year on life insurance!
