A private school located in Manhattan has recently issued a 12 page guide to students and staff suggesting that they use “inclusive language,” staying away from words like mom and dad and parents.

The Grace Church School is an Episcopalian School that teaches grade K – 12 and and issued the guide as part of the school’s mission for inclusivity of students, families and faculty from various backgrounds.

The school suggest in the guide that students utilize words like, “folks” “families” “guardians”  as opposed to the typical reference of mom, dad, or parent. Instead of using the term “babysitter or nanny” they suggest using the term, “caregiver”
