So my 5yo will only wear dresses now (having previously hated dresses) as "girls wear dresses, boys wear trousers". She has only once seen me (her mother) in a dress. At my wedding.
She now won't wear blue.
Comes out with statements such as girls can't do X job. Only boys can be doctors (her grandmother is a doctor, and her GP is female). Or only mummies stay at home to look after children (Dh was SAHD last year for one year).
There's also been talk about boys making comments about seeing the girls pants and commenting on their "fat" legs and tummies. I have made the teacher aware to pass on to the lunchtime supervisors.
Im actually horrified. I try to talk about it with her but apparently I know nothing. Her teacher denies all knowledge.
She also sees me shaving my legs and arms and talks about her hairy arms and how women have to be hairless. She's 5!! I can't not shave though - I'm incredibly hairy (have had much laser hair removal on my face and still tweezers daily) and have previously had harassment in the street due to it, and cannot cope with that currently.
What do I do?!
