RE: The Social Birds & the Bees: The socialization of gender, a toy store ethnography
Since becoming a mother I have seen how much gender roles are being forced onto children, it really engrained in past generations, how they speak and act around them. My kids are my kids, they can do and be who ever they wish to be, this is one of the reasons why I have kept them from mainstream school also, because people are not even aware that they are restricting their freedom by what they say etc. Such an important topic @alchemage and you wrote about it so truthfully xx
That's beautiful that you're incorporating it into your parenting. The children are our future and how we treat them will reflect in their behaviors. Thank you for treating your children like people! <3 And thank you for your kind words. <3
