As much as we tell our kids they can be or do anything, external messages may slip in. Gender stereotypes we thought we’d retired long ago are still reinforced in popular culture, online or even the playground and teaching our tweens to recognise these gendered norms is the first step. How can we raise this next generation differently and how do we teach our tweens that no one is built for any one box?

Join host, Dylan Lewis, for an insightful chat with Meshel Laurie and Sean Szeps, who are each raising fraternal twins. They talk role models, toys and how to have those tricky gender-identity discussions with your kids.

On this episode of Navigating Parenthood: Growing Great Tweens, brought to you by HCF we look at the gender stereotypes still impacting our kids.
