In this episode of Pinot and Parenting, we had the pleasure of speaking with filmmaker Olivier Bernier. Olivier speaks about he and his wife’s journey with their son, Emilio, from his birth through to his start of preschool. Olivier outlines the challenges they faced with the New York City public school system when their son with Down syndrome applied to pre-kindergarten. We also discuss his new film, Forget Me Not, in which he and his wife turn the camera on their family as they navigate the often segregated school system to secure an inclusive education for their son.    For more information on the Olivier Bernier and his film, please visit:  Forget Me Not | About The Film (forgetmenotdocumentary.com)   For more information on back pocket essentials, please visit: Backpocket Essentials Toddler Parenting Course | Thriving Toddler
