Gaining Mom-entum on Gender, Part 2: Binary Shminary

Listen Later

Welcome back to Gaining Mom-entum! Meghan and Abi dive right back into their conversation about gender. This week, they focus on the gendered nonsense they’re trying to be aware of and combat in parenting their kids. (Here’s looking at you, Paw Patrol!) They talk about the insidious gendered messages that society passes onto children and why talking about feelings makes their job as parents easier. They finish off with a discussion on creating a safe space for children who are non-binary. As always, thanks for listening!
