Common misconceptions
- Believing only certain genders or races do certain helper jobs (firefighter = man, nurse = woman, etc.) — this term explicitly disrupts that
- Confusing 'helper' with 'someone who is nice to me' (a helper has a specific role / service)
- Believing helpers are only the famous-uniform ones (forgets sanitation workers, grocery workers, the school custodian, bus drivers)
