dc.description.notes | "Research shows that families, and in particular parents, are young children's first and primary source of information about gender. Thus, parents have a unique and powerful opportunity to help prevent violence against women by modelling respect and equality in their relationships, challenging rigid and harmful gender stereotypes, and promoting diversity. This paper summarises findings from a survey of parents of young children and discusses the implications for helping to drive generational cultural change, in the context of the latest research. 858 parents of children aged 0-3 years old were surveyed in January 2017 regarding attitudes towards gender equality, violence against women, treating boys and girls the same, traditional gender stereotypes, how household and parenting tasks and decisions are divided, whether children's wellbeing and success are influenced by gender stereotypes, whether gender stereotypes affect men and women in their future relationships, different types of childhood play, and comfort with a son or daughter crying. Though the survey showed that 92% of parents believe girls and boys should be treated the same in the early years, it also indicated that the level of comfort many parents report in relation to their young children engaging in a particular activity is related to whether that activity is considered gender-appropriate. However, 79% of the parents reported wanting to take action to challenge traditional gender stereotypes." | en |
