Social-Emotional Competence<br />

And Family Relations 10<br />

The child’s world today is a global village, and children will have to understand<br />

what it means to live with others who look and sound different, have<br />

different cultures and values, and practice different religions. In the<br />

September 11 (2001) disaster, more than 5,000 people from 80 countries perished.<br />

If our lives and the lives <strong>of</strong> our children are not to be shrouded in conflict,<br />

we will need to learn understanding, tolerance, and respect for others….<br />

It has become a place where we need to support each other and our children more than ever before.<br />

(Greenman, 2001)<br />
