Parenting as a protest against hate
Although not a new phenomenon, there seems to have been an increase in incidents of racism, sexism, xenophobia, ableism, LGBTQ discrimination, sexual assault, bullying, and hate crimes as of late. As an activist, I feel compellede to get out there and help change the world. As a mother of 3 young boys, I feel immobilized in my desire to be an agent of change by my family obligations -- or am I? Attachment Parenting allows me to contribute to world peace by raising the next generation to fight hate with love and understanding. And that is potentially the most important job that anyone can be called to do.
