Summary:
Feminist
parenting
creates unique challenges. As women experience the unique powerlessness of motherhood, they also hold the uncomfortable power of acting as advocates for and as agents of socialization and social control over their children. Fathers may feel the desire for feminist
parenting
whilst experiencing a backlash and a lack of support, while some parents may attempt to resist the binaries of mothering and fathering in their feminist
parenting
journey. Feminist parents may attempt to resist
gender
binaries; they may submit to them while attempting to foster critical dialoge; they may struggle with the display of their own femininity and masculinity or, for some, its perceived lack. This book attempts to cast a lens on the messy and convoluted ways that feminist parents approach
parenting
their children in
gender
aware and
gender
fluid
ways.
