Acknowledge the differences

Encourage your child to ask questions
Do not avoid the child’s questions or silence him when he talks about the differences in the body, for example, because this would generate the conviction that dialogue on these topics is prohibited.
List fairness as a human value
Exaggerating the description of racism as an unjust practice builds a barrier between your child and the world and results in the formation of racist tendencies in him

Introduce your child to other cultures. Bringing in products from different cultures, such as foods, movies, and stories, is a way to help your child reduce prejudices and encourage him to form friendships that are inclusive.
