24.01.2022 Good one to watch and talk with your kids about

23.01.2022 This excellent article offers parents concrete advice on how to "raise empowered young adults who have empathy for others and a clear understanding of healthy c...onsent." Although it may seem like a complicated concept, especially for younger kids, it’s much more accessible than you might think. In this thoughtful piece, four editors have compiled a list of ways to talk to kids, from age 1 to 21, about consent, appropriate touch, and empathy for others. Their hope is that parents and educators find this list of action items and teaching tools helpful, and that together we can help create a generation of children who have less rape and sexual assault in their lives. For children age 1 to 5, they suggest simple things -- for example, teach your kids that 'no' and 'stop' are important words and should be honored" and allow children to talk about their body in any way they want, without shame. For children age 5 to 12, they recommend [encouraging] kids to watch each others’ facial expressions during play to be sure everyone’s happy and on the same page" and [teaching] kids to look for opportunities to help." For teens and young adults, they maintain that "education about 'good touch/bad touch' remains crucial, particularly in middle school" and that it's important to teach them that their feelings, desires and needs are no one’s responsibility but their own. They still need to practice kindness and respect for everyone around them. To read the full article, published on The Good Men Project, with all of the tips for each age group, visit http://bit.ly/1oHk4jz There are also several excellent books that are helpful for talking to young children about body privacy and touch including Your Body Belongs To You for ages 3 to 7 (http://www.amightygirl.com/your-body-belongs-to-you), "Those Are MY Private Parts!" for ages 3 to 6 (http://www.amightygirl.com/those-are-my-private-parts) and An Exceptional Child’s Guide to Touch, which is especially geared toward children with special needs, for ages 3 to 7 or the equivalent developmental age (http://www.amightygirl.com/an-exceptional-children-s-guide-).

08.01.2022 Here's a puzzle. Finnish children spend comparatively little time at school, don't get homework and yet receive one of the best educations in the world. Curious? Watch how the Finns did it in this clip from Michael Moore's compelling documentary film 'Where To Invade Next?'

08.01.2022 How to talk to your daughter about her body, step one: don’t talk to your daughter about her body, except to teach her how it works. Don’t say anything if she’s lost weight. Don’t say anything if she’s gained weight. If you think your daughter’s body looks amazing, don’t say that. Here are some things you can say instead:... You look so healthy! is a great one. Or how about, you’re looking so strong. I can see how happy you are you’re glowing. Better yet, compliment her on something that has nothing to do with her body. Don’t comment on other women’s bodies either. Nope. Not a single comment, not a nice one or a mean one. Teach her about kindness towards others, but also kindness towards yourself. Don’t you dare talk about how much you hate your body in front of your daughter, or talk about your new diet. In fact, don’t go on a diet in front of your daughter. Buy healthy food. Cook healthy meals. But don’t say I’m not eating carbs right now. Your daughter should never think that carbs are evil, because shame over what you eat only leads to shame about yourself. Encourage your daughter to run because it makes her feel less stressed. Encourage your daughter to climb mountains because there is nowhere better to explore your spirituality than the peak of the universe. Encourage your daughter to surf, or rock climb, or mountain bike because it scares her & that’s a good thing sometimes. Help your daughter love soccer or rowing or hockey because sports make her a better leader & a more confident woman. Explain that no matter how old you get, you’ll never stop needing good teamwork. Never make her play a sport she isn’t absolutely in love with. Prove to your daughter that women don’t need men to move their furniture. Teach your daughter how to cook kale. Teach your daughter how to bake chocolate cake made with six sticks of butter. Pass on your own mom’s recipe for Christmas morning coffee cake. Pass on your love of being outside. Maybe you & your daughter both have thick thighs or wide ribcages. It’s easy to hate these non-size zero body parts. Don’t. Tell your daughter that with her legs she can run a marathon if she wants to, & her ribcage is nothing but a carrying case for strong lungs. She can scream & she can sing & she can lift up the world, if she wants. Remind your daughter that the best thing she can do with her body is to use it to mobilize her beautiful soul.
