To respect the dignity and preferences of each family and to make an effort to learn about its structure, culture, language, customs, and beliefs.
I love this Code of Ethic, especially the use of the phrase: respect the dignity. It is so important as a teacher to embrace all children and their families.
I think the key word here is “to learn” while we are obligated as professionals to respect others’ differences, it takes greater effort to want to learn about these differences as a way to help us better serve these families.
