Beautiful, Amber. As my children are 11 and 9, I feel so so much of this and I too worry I am not doing enough to combat misogyny at every meal! ha! Thank you for sharing these snippets of your life here.
"Mustering this trust muscle isn’t always easy. Refusal to help set the table, for example, tempts us into future projection. What if our kids turn into helpless, ungrateful beings incapable of even the basics of decorum? What if we are contributing to the status quo because we didn’t do enough to combat misogyny at the breakfast table?" YESSSSSSSS. My thoughts EXACTLY. 😘

Thank you, Malwina. So happy to hear this resonated. We're in it together--combating misogyny at every meal!
