Ep 47: How to Practice Social Justice Parenting Today
"It’s possible for you to both teach your child to survive systemic oppression and nurture them to be a future steward of the Earth, compassionate community builder, and conscious change agent. And you can begin this seven-generation marathon of liberation work right here, right now."
Episode Summary:
In this episode, you and I are going to explore what social justice parenting means and what it actually looks like in practice using a framework I’ve been using with families for 15 years. You’ll see how the two components of the framework fit together so that you can begin applying it to your daily parenting at your own pace.
Episode Outline
Social justice parenting is raising your child to be both street smart (surviving) and liberation smart (free and thriving).
Social justice parenting is raising your child according to your values and being informed by child development science.
An example of what social justice parenting looks like in action.
Two components of the social justice parenting framework: first deconstruct it and then do it.
“Deconstruct” means naming the author of the parenting script you’re pressured to perform to.
Do means re-aligning your next parenting decision with your values and promoting your child’s development at the same time.
Social justice parenting is a concrete way for you to reclaim your agency.
Social justice parenting is a concrete way to bridge the gap between your social justice intention and action.
