Mother of one
“Many times parents think that it’s them, and that they need to be that significant adult in their [child’s] life and to influence and to support — where really it goes back generations — that it takes a village to raise a child. That is so very, very critical. And when we look at indigenous communities, that has been the philosophy for a very, very long time and for smaller communities. So for parents, I encourage you to really think about how do you seek out either formal programs where you can seek out a formal mentor.”
