To help educators distinguish between disrespect and developmental voice as Black girls begin asserting autonomy, asking questions, and engaging critically.
As your body changes, it’s normal to look in the mirror more. You’re not being vain — you’re learning to see yourself with love.
To help adults recognize that when Black girls begin expressing opinions, asking questions, or setting boundaries, they’re not being “disrespectful” — they’re developing voice and agency.
This module invites parents and educators to support that growth by responding with curiosity, not control.
