Both women and men should be socialized to believe that they can
choose to have their status as parents be the defining aspect of their identity
without fear of being judged and labeled as a helicopter parent or loser who doesn't know their own name. Women and men should also be socialized to believe that they can
choose to
not have their status as parents be the defining aspect of their identity
without fear of being told that they are incapable and incompetent as parents. And, in the case of women,
without being told that they fail at womanhood and femininity because they identify as being more than a parent.
Hence, my posts in this thread. Yours, not so much.
