All children need to be raised with balance, loving affection, and discipline. Children thrive on things like routine and structure. No matter their gender, all children need to be taught to embrace their strengths, handle their weaknesses, and overcome the stereotypes that might be attached to them based on sex or gender alone.  If you have a daughter, it’s important to recognize that she will have her own stereotypes to overcome. As a parent, it’s your job to help her find a balance of femininity and strength. She can be kind, compassionate, and helpful while flourishing in assertiveness and ambition, characteristics historically thought of as masculine. 

If you’re expecting a baby (or considering having one), you may have some reservations. It’s typically thought that a couple will be only happy and excited when they find out they’re expecting—but this isn’t always the case. In reality, many couples have a great deal of fear when it comes to having a baby.
