Patti Cancellier, education director with Kensington’s Parent Encouragement Program, said the topic of gender comes up in her classes frequently. “Usually it’s around the idea of pink and blue jobs at home,” she said. “We always recommend that every child, no matter their gender, learn as many of the family jobs as they can in preparation for life.”
Cancellier shared other suggestions on how parents can make sure they don’t show gender bias.
