Hi, a warm welcome to silkysteps.

What sort of situations have you encountered that involve a parent discriminating?

The equality act 2010 on adviceguide.org.uk

Have you ever heard, seen or been involved with situations that exampled how boys are better than girls, girls are better than boys. Maybe only girls wear pink, only boys wear blue, dolls are for girls or cars are for boys - stereotyping and gender discrimination

Parent requests a child not uses some of the dressing up resources
Parent requests adult influence over a child's choice of friendships
Parent asks for their child to be excluded from an activity
Skin colour is used negatively in conversation.
Negative observations are made about individual children's development

How would you stand up for each of those individual children's rights, find out the reasons for the discrimination and politely challenge the parents by using language and knowledge that lets them know we are all unique and entitled to participate?

Who supports you in this role? a manager, supervisor, named colleague?
