Boys Vs. Girls: The Societal Stereotypes Of Toys, Gifts, and Clothing

Morgen and Trisha touch on the societal stereotypes we feel our children are pushed into. When shopping, the girls' section is all pinks and purples with flowers, ballerinas, and what is deemed feminine. The boys' section is all blues and greens with trucks, Dinosaurs, and superheroes. The same goes for the toys the kids are given. Girls are expected to play with dolls and have tea parties while the boys are given trucks and robots. The societal norms are more than just gift-givers going with social influences; it starts at the stores we buy from. As mama's with girls, Morgen & Trisha want Charlie & Remi to be empowered and not too influenced by societal stereotypes on what is considered feminine or masculine. The same goes for Auggie when he gets older.
