There are many suggestions when it comes to feminist parenting. I found a list of some qualities of feminist parenting on “Bustle.com.” I would like to take a look at a select few today.

The first thing that feminist parents do differently is demonstrate a respectful relationship with their partner. This means they share housework evenly, split the power dynamic, and set a good example in respecting their partner. This idea shows children how to be part of a respectful relationship. It also teaches their children to stand up for themselves and what a healthy relationship looks like.

This article also talks about toys and activities should not be considered gender-specific. This suggests that parents should let their children play with toys and participate in activities of their choice. It is avoiding society’s pressures to label them as one another. A feminist parenting lets their son take dance classes and their daughter play with a tool kit. This does not mean the parents have to force their kids one way or another, but to play naturally and freely. This allows children to learn that they can do whatever they want.

One of the most important things that feminist parents do, in my opinion, is be body positive. They work to have good self-image and encourage their children to love themselves. It is focusing on the good in themselves and others. Feminist parents want their children to learn to love themselves in any stage of life and to appreciate how others look regardless of negative stereotypes. Feminist parents teach their children to accept and love people as they are.
