[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Our generation worked so hard to expand the notion of what it means to be female--you can be strong, ambitious, loud, athletic, aggressive, whatever--and now it seems like kids are putting "female" in this small, weak box and identifying anything outside that stereotype as something other.”

OP here. This! It makes me so sad. Womanhood is so powerful, and I know I have set an empowering example. That is partly why I am confused. [/quote]

+1. Don’t stand for this OP. Please have some [b]serious conversations[/b] with your DD about where she’s getting this and why it’s so attractive to her now. She needs guidance and [b]moral clarity[/b] from her parents. Please do not leave this for her to “figure out” on her own. She’s entered a cesspool and needs help before she is completely sucked in.

Do you have recommendations for conversion therapy?[/quote]

Don’t be an ass. “Conversion therapy” is not an issue because there is nothing to convert. OPs young tween is “experimenting.” [/quote]

why do you need serious conversations and moral clarity about experimenting?[/quote]

PP here and excuse me, I misspoke. OP did not say that her child is experimenting. She said that she is “confused.”  Are you seriously telling me that parents should not step in with mature guidance and moral clarity when their child expresses confusion, especially about an issue this fundamental to their very nature?[/quote]
