Childism Exposed: The Hidden Framework Behind Gentle Parenting
About this episode
Monique and Krista discuss the concept of Childism and its implications for parenting and culture.
Monique and Krista unpack "Childism," the emerging critical theory framework that views children as an oppressed class and traditional parenting as a form of adultism. They examine its strong influence on popular Gentle Parenting leaders like Sarah Ockwell-Smith and Dr. Becky Kennedy, and how it mirrors Critical Race Theory. Discover how this ideology is quietly shaping education, culture, and parenting—and learn how to respond with a distinctly biblical worldview that honors both the dignity of children and God-given parental responsibility. #Childism #Adultism #BiblicalParenting
