The aim of Bringing Tradition Home is to present traditional values and cultural practices to help parents, grandparents and other caregivers to raise healthy children in today’s society. The program has been developed based on the traditional values from the Seven Sacred Teachings of the Ojibway which we have adapted to our x̄á’isla traditional ways.
The first session will be based on Respect— a feeling of admiration and deference toward somebody or something.
- The learning objectives are as follows: Participants are able to:
- Describe the role of respect in their own child-rearing practices.
- Explain the importance of Aboriginal values as a foundation for parenting.
- Describe the tradition of respect in Aboriginal child-rearing.
