What we covered

Gender-based violence (GBV) is a major problem in many countries around the world, and it is particularly prevalent in countries where traditional gender roles are strongly enforced. GBV affects people of all genders, but it disproportionately affects women and other gender minorities. As parents, it is important to understand how our parenting styles can be used to help fight GBV and create safer, more equitable environments for our children.

The first step in using your parenting style to help fight GBV is to understand the nature of the problem. GBV can take many forms, from physical and sexual violence to emotional and psychological abuse. It can also involve unequal access to resources, economic exploitation, and discrimination in the workplace or in other areas of life.

Once you understand the scope of the problem, it is important to think about how you can use your parenting style to address it. This can involve having conversations with your children about gender stereotypes and gender roles, as well as teaching them about the importance of respect and consent. You can also model healthy relationships and gender equality in your own home, leading by example.

In addition to teaching your children healthy values, it is important to be aware of the gender dynamics in their social and educational settings. Are there gender disparities in their school environment, or gender-based bullying or harassment? If so, it is important to address these issues with your children and with school administrators, in order to create a safer, more equitable learning environment for all students.

Finally, it is important to be aware of the resources available in your community for those affected by GBV. This could include shelters, support groups, and legal assistance. It is also important to be aware of organizations that are working to end gender-based violence, and to support their efforts in any way you can.

Using your parenting style to help fight GBV is an important step in creating a safer, more equitable world for all genders. By teaching your children healthy values, modeling respectful relationships, and advocating for change in their social and educational environments, you can make a positive difference in the fight against gender-based violence.
