Navigating Tough Conversations About Pronouns with Your Kids (w/ Ryan & Bethany Bomberger) - Ep. 112


Listen Later

In our culture, the use of preferred pronouns has become ubiquitous among Gen Zers and beyond. As a parent, you may have noticed this trend and wondered how to approach the subject with your children, especially your younger ones. It's crucial to start having conversations about pronouns and gender identity very young as many schools have embraced an agenda to "break the binary" in kindergarten. 

Ryan and Bethany Bomberger, co-founders of the Radiance Foundation, recognize the importance of addressing this issue and have created valuable resources to help parents navigate these conversations. In this episode, the Bombergers share their insights on the topic and discuss their groundbreaking books, She is She and He is He, which aim to reinforce simple, biological truths about gender. Ryan and Bethany emphasize the significance of bridging the gap between personal worldviews and addressing difficult topics with confidence.

Episode highlights:

  • The importance of addressing the issue early.
  • The "Break the Binary" initiative in kindergarten.
  • The importance of reinforcing simple biological truths with young children.
  • The rise of the “T” in gender ideology creating a contradiction in the LGBTQ+ community.
  • The dangers of hormone blockers and cross-sex hormones on young individuals.
  • The deceptive nature of the transgender ideology and its impact on society.
  • The role of Planned Parenthood in promoting gender confusion.
  • How parental rights are under assault.
  • Long-term studies on the effects of sex reassignment.
  • Finding freedom in embracing one’s biological gender.
  • The power of love, truth, and faith in guiding children towards their authentic selves .

As parents, it is our responsibility to engage in honest, open conversations with our children about the complex issues they face in today's world, including the topics of pronouns and gender identity. By equipping ourselves with the knowledge and resources necessary to navigate these conversations, we can help our children understand the importance of embracing their biological sex and the freedom that comes with living authentically as the individuals God created them to be.
