 Conversation With Families  [WLOs: 1, 3] [CLO: 3]

Parents or caregivers are the most important people in a child’s life. Families can be an invaluable source of information about the child, and the educator must understand that families need to know that their knowledge and insights are important.

This conversation may not always be easy, especially if the educator is sharing information that the child is not reaching critical milestones.
