Stereotyping Kids from Childhood

Parvinder kaur Mom of a 6 yr 3 m old girl 5 years ago
stereotyping is what which is being there since so long, back to our parents and their parents and their parents. Even in developed countries,during baby gender revealing, they use pink and blue sort of stuff to reveal the gender. That means it is there in our every gate of mind. This is some sort of thing which is prejudiced. if a baby wears headband that definitely means is a girl. and if it doesn't happen, our frst question then why is he wearing so.
Change can be brought in from the very basic thing. pink and blue can not define being girl or boy, as blood vl be red only, cannot bring in any change in its color then who vl decide a proto color to define gender.

unconscious biasing is totally unacceptable for kids.
Babies food,sleep,parenting,joy, sorrows, education are not determined by gender.
how a colour or toy or a behaviour can decide what my kids gender is?

I totally disagree with this.. anyone from child to adult can choose any colour be pink or blue..

I don't blv in the so called Society concept of "Pink for gals" & "Blue for boys." How can we differentiate between colours? It's so ridiculous for us to teach our kids that Pink is for gals n Blue for boys. We say that girls n boys r equal n on the other hand we ourselves r teaching that they r not equal. My daughter is 5.5 yrs old but I have never discuss all these with her. She herself decide which is her fav color n m happy that her fav color is not "Pink" but "Red"😊 Small things play a very big role in our life n I think this small differentiation of colors can do the same with kids.

children are very impressionable. we should try to never apply our reservations and judgements on them. they should decide them for themselves. if anything, in the very early days around 1915~, blue was actually a girl's colour. who knew!?! let kids be kids!
