When it comes to raising our daughters the teachings come naturally. We inculcate what we have learned as women throughout our lives, we share ideas and even physical conditions, but when it comes to a child, things change.
To educate a child under the idea of an egalitarian world, of kindness towards both genders and freedom of choice, children should be raised in the same way.
The researchers carried out an analysis made of psychologists, sociologists, economists, neuro-scientists and subject specialists, to learn how to raise feminist children.
These are the points to highlight to promote a new generation of children, with equal conditions for girls.
-
Boys can cry
Children can and should cry too. After 5 years, children begin to receive the message that crying is not right, getting angry. Instead, girls can grow by showing their human sensitivity.
-
Let it be
No study shows that newborn babies have a preference for some type of color. Children’s toys and clothing have marked the gender gap visibly, affecting the decisions of each child.
You must allow your child to choose games or activities without conditioning the gender; Just as a girl is allowed to play soccer, a boy can also study ballet.
-
Teach them to care
We believe that the characteristic of protection and care is intrinsic to the female gender, however, a child can also take care of others. This will show you to have more empathy and, in the future, help with family tasks.
-
Make friends
A study by Arizona State University showed that boys and girls begin to separate from the last year of preschool.
-
Do not use the word girl as an insult
It is parents who instill traditional gender roles, because they fear that they will make fun of their children. How do they do that? With phrases like “You run like a girl.”
-
It is not no
From the earliest age, children must learn that when someone does not want to play, the game must stop.
Teach him that physical contact requires the approval of the other person.
