The Lucky Few

221. A Letter To The Parents Of Our Kid's Peers


Listen Later

Friends, today we’re talking about school and friendship in a different way, this episode is to the parents of our kid's peers. We’re sharing our thoughts on having conversations every kid deserves to have about disability and why it’s important. We think about our own childhoods and our first interactions with people with disabilities. How we as parents can make intentional choices about the way we talk about disability with our kids. We share some encouraging moments we’ve seen other parents approach including our kids with Down syndrome. Let’s keep shifting those narratives parents, whether you have a child with Down syndrome or not!
