I just finished reading Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's book "Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions". This small book should be used as a parenting checklist in today's times. The author weaves beautiful words and includes very relevant examples while giving us fifteen suggestions about how to raise a feminist daughter or I would rather say, a feminist child, for I believe that some suggestions given by her are equally relevant for raising up boys.
I have already been following a few while bringing up my little one and some are not applicable to me (like normalizing the fact that your spouse participates in your chores). Yet there are still a few suggestions that I need to remember and imbibe in my behavior. I think that should be my task for this year.
Next on the list... "We should all be feminists" by Adichie.
