I have embarked on a new profession with very little knowledge of how it is actually run. During the past eight weeks reading post, blogs, and resources provided have enlightened me to which direction I am passing. I would like to thank everyone for commenting and challenging me to think out side of the box or to simply know that a box does not exist. Some of you are already in the profession and this has given me hope that I will be as passionate in this field as I am in my current profession. I was told if I love my job I will never work again. Moving forward I wish for all of you to exceed your own expectations. I would like to see a podcast one day with you stating your love for the profession. Good luck with everything.

I'm Just Being Ethical (in my Future voice)
Ethics: A system of MORAL PRINCIPLES
NAEYC
P-2.6 As families share information with us about their children and families, we shall consider this information to plan and implement the program.
As a parent of a child with special needs this is important to me because my child was nonverbal until the age of 6. At that time she only spoke a few words. They wanted to use a speaking device with her at school but we were not going to use it at home. They changed her education plan to be consistent with what she was doing at home.
I-3B.2 To do nothing that diminishes the reputation of the program in which we work unless it is violating laws and regulations designed to protect children or is violating the provisions of the Code.
We have to watch what is said in public about your work place. We never know who is at the next table and you are representing the company with negativity.
DEC
Professional Collaboration
3. We shall honor and respect the diverse backgrounds of our colleagues including such diverse characteristics as sexual orientation, race, national origin, religious beliefs, and other affiliations.
Everyone has a different perspective or beliefs. This does not make you right and them wrong its is just different. Sometimes we have to sit back and pay attention to others. We just may learn a thing or two.
