Support Your Daughters

Here is a video that everyone, especially dads with daughters need to watch.

#LikeAGirl

It takes the phrase "_________ like a girl" and asks kids of different ages to act out the statement.  It might be "throw" like a girl, "run" like a girl, or "jump" like a girl.  It's amazing how differently older kids act out the phrase compared to younger kids.  The younger kids do everything normal because they don't have the stereotype of what a girl is "supposed" to do.

The video is a great message to parents that being a girl is not a shortcoming or disadvantage.  Being a girl is simply being a girl because the child is a girl!

Please watch the video as it will really open up your eyes to the stereotypes this society places on girls.
