In a world where conversations around identity are becoming more essential than ever, author and youth advocate Victoria Range-Carr releases a groundbreaking new book, The Things Kids Learn About Today: Gender Identity and Expression. This compelling, compassionate guide empowers parents, educators, and caregivers to have meaningful, age-appropriate conversations with children about gender identity and self-expression.
With over 20 years of experience in social services and child advocacy, Range-Carr understands the power of communication—and the damage caused by silence. Her new book is more than a manual; it’s a movement toward open dialogue, respect, and healing across generations.
“This book is not just about gender—it’s about being heard, being seen, and being loved exactly as you are,” says Range-Carr. “It’s a resource for every adult who wants to build stronger, more emotionally safe relationships with the young people in their lives.”
Blending professional insights, storytelling, and inclusive language, The Things Kids Learn About Today follows the stories of four children—Johnnie, Mare, Don, and Ella—as they explore their identities in a safe and supportive environment. Their experiences serve as powerful teaching tools for families navigating similar paths.
The book includes:
- – Simple definitions of common gender-related terms
- – Strategies for creating emotionally safe conversations
- – Guidance for parents, caregivers, educators, and faith leaders
- – A special message to children encouraging pride in their identity
- – A comprehensive list of trusted LGBTQIA+ support resources
Why This Book Matters Now
As debates around gender identity continue in public discourse, many families are left wondering how to support their children without fear or misinformation. The Things Kids Learn About Today fills that gap—offering truth, clarity, and compassion in a time when kids need it most.
“This is the book I wish I had as a child—and as a parent,” shares Range-Carr. “It’s not about having all the answers. It’s about starting the conversation and leading with love.”
