@KingdomScrolls the assumptions you are making about my way of parenting just from me asking about how to change a bedroom is actually astounding.
You have no idea about how old my daughter is, the way i’m bringing my daughter up, you have no idea whether i have been subject to domestic or sexual abuse, you are taking a tiny snippet of my life and a tiny paragraph of writing and running with it.
Not that I should even have to explain myself, as the way i choose to bring my daughter and my son up is none of your business or concern, but my children will not be forced into specific gender roles.
I could argue, in fact i will, that i wouldn’t even consider using blue paint at all if i was that set on my girl being ‘girly and cute’ or railroaded into being vulnerable and silenced as you so put it.
My daughter can wear whatever she likes, she has been in her older brothers room for a couple of years now, exactly the way he had it, with decals of trucks, diggers and the like with blue curtains, a rug that has a digger on it, she has been read to using the same books about machinery and the way things work that my son had interest in.
Likewise my son now reads my daughters peppa pig books/puts on her dressing up outfits albeit way too small, he sings to frozen and which is stereotypically a ‘girls’ film.
My daughter has clothes with dinosaurs on, she wore hand me downs from her brother.
So don’t you dare come at me saying that i’m drip feeding her gender specific roles and teaching her to be compliant, vulnerable and trapped because she will be none of those things.
Go and sort out whatever is making you this picky and making issues out of absolutely nothing when you have no idea about me.
Many thanks.
