It is important to teach all children about both their own and other cultures, backgrounds, and religions, to create a diverse and understanding community. With understanding comes acceptance, and it is important to create this understanding by allowing children from all cultures and religions to share their experiences and what is important to them and their families.
As a foster carer, you have a duty to enable the children in your care to explore their own heritage and background. Participation by the whole family in whatever capacity will promote your child’s self-worth and acceptance into your family environment.
