Overview
āA powerful resource for caregivers trying to raise courageous girls . . . Itās my go-to and my how-to.āāKwame Alexander, New York Times bestselling author of Light for the World to See
Renowned sociologist Dr. Janice Johnson Dias has devoted her life to nurturing and training girls to become change-makersāwhether through her investment in her daughter Marleyās humanitarian projects or through her work with the GrassROOTS Community Foundationās āSuperCamp.ā In these unprecedented times, her work has never been more urgent, as parents find themselves asking: How do we teach our children to change the world?
Ā
Dr. Johnson Dias knows that self-realized girls are created through intentional parenting. And so she asks parents to make deliberate choicesāfrom babyhood through adolescenceāthat will give their girls the resources and foundation to take hold of their own futures and to create sustainable social change.Ā
Ā
Unlike other parenting experts, Dr. Johnson Dias doesnāt urge parents to focus solely on their children. Instead, she tasks them with a personal challenge: to find their own joy. Just as Dr. Johnson Dias brings her own jubilant passion to parenting, mentoring, and teaching, she inspires caregivers to do the same.Ā
Ā
Using cutting-edge research and Dr. Johnson Diasās own experiences, Parent Like It Matters offers information and strategies for making discussions of racism and sexism a daily practice, identifying heroes and mentors, educating yourselves together, and uncovering your girlās passions and what issues drive her the most.Ā
Ā
Parenting is enormous work; it can be as overwhelming as it is fulfilling. Within the pages of Parent Like It Matters, parents will find the invaluable tools they need to raise resilient, optimistic girls who determine for themselves what their world will look like.
