[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just came across this tiktok that I found very helpful as a parent, and I thought I'd pass it along.

I definitely think the whole eight-minute video is worth a watch for those who want to help their kids have a better educational experience, but for those who aren't on tiktok, the ten things are:

1. Teach them how to delay verbal opposition.
2. Teach diplomatic/non-violent conflict resolution.
3. Teach them how to be bored. (for example, don't give them a screen for a couple of hours during a car trip)
4. Teach them how to accept the answer no from a teacher. 
5. Make them responsible for their own property.
6. Teach them how to check in - teach them to take the initiative to communicate with you about grades, upcoming deadlines, etc.
7. Teach the importance of being reliable.
8. Model kindness, generosity, and empathy.
9. Depending on economic situation, get them involved in activities (especially ones that don't involve screens).
10. Treat their teacher like a human being. [/quote]Every item on this list is an aspect of whiteness.  Expecting black and Hispanic children to do these this is racist.  Do better.[/quote]
