You’re a parent. You’re a feminist. But are you a feminist parent?
Feminist parenting is about more than helping your daughter speak up in class. We need to work on our expectations for boys, too. And all children. If we don’t make a MAJOR shift in the way we think about gender and kids, we’ll continue to see the same inequity in the classroom and the boardroom for years and years.
We MUST start with the next generation.
And we must shift our own expectations.
