Children start asking questions about the origin of families from around the age 3+ and when said origin is unconventional it may be a difficult topic to explain. The Educate Me Ethan series serves to help parents better explain these hard topics to their children in a way that is easier for them to understand. The first installment of the series is called Ethan's Secret and in this book we broach the topic of surrogacy and how although unusual to their young minds it is actually a very normal and admirable thing in today's society. We would like to shed light on surrogacy and bring awareness as to how it helps families all over world. From the perspective of a child we are able to talk children through the stages of confusion, inquisitiveness and finally acceptance.
