How do we treat our kids like full human people without treating them like adults and forcing them to grow up too quickly. Let's talk about it!
Treating our kids like full people simply means that we welcome all of their humanness and don't try to minimize or talk them out of their experiences. It means that they deserve as much respect as any adult.
There is not a topic that's off limits with my kids. There is a spectrum of the amount, intensity, and way information is shared.
For hard topics:
Tell the truth
Follow their lead
Share what's developmentally appropriate
Welcome follow up conversations
The amount of information we share with our kids grows with them as they age. It doesn't have to be an all or nothing the minute they become curious about a certain topic.
