In an increasingly complex world, this course empowers parents to have thoughtful, age-appropriate conversations with their children about political and social issues. From topics like race and gender to activism and current events, you’ll learn how to foster open dialogue, encourage critical thinking, and guide your child through challenging discussions with confidence.

Today’s children are exposed to political and social issues earlier than ever, often through media or peers. This course provides you with practical tools to help your child make sense of these topics in a way that aligns with your family’s values while fostering empathy and understanding.

“It's never too early to talk to your child about politics... Kids live in a connected world and are constantly interfacing with political messages, so discussing politics with them is a way to engage authentically. These conversations are also a great way to let them know the value system you use to critically engage the world.” – Hoyt Phillips
