here's a thread on what's happening when shitty bigoted parents rage about gayness in films π§΅
anyways just let your kids be who they want and try different things and don't pass on the guilt/shame from past generations that needed to gaslight all of reality that "no it's not us who are wrong it is YOU" βοΈ
here's a thread on what's happening when shitty bigoted parents rage about gayness in films π§΅
ask any exvie youth pastor about that and then let them cook
imo that's exactly what alot of evie X-ian parents want from church youth groups..
to do the parenting they don't know how to do, to give their kids SOME chance at learning new/younger language, but NOT in a way where the parents also have to grow & learn
so instead they throw a fit and declare it is Disney/Pixar 's job to limit their content and cater to ignorance so they can sustain the illusion that they are
GoodParentsβ’οΈ a little while longer
these parents, who cry out that a feature film should be changed to cater to their limited ideology, *absolutely know*
that if they tell their kids that Disney/ELIO are "off limits for our family", or whatever bullshit they spew to excuse it?
will only make the kids MORE curious about it π
(above post should end w/)
best versions of *US*
not only is he going against his past choices in the aforementioned films that DO give families language for growth past their adults
he's caving to pressure from *underdeveloped* adults and aiding them in locking their kids into bigotry π€¬
that keeps us from being the BEST versions of
back to the OP
when Pete Doctor - who to be clear has directed ALOT of GREAT films for Pixar around emotional growth, specifically
Brave

Inside Out (& #2)

posits that GIVING FAMILIES LANGUAGE AROUND LGBTQ+ issues is a **BAD** thing?!..
as (very likely ALSO emotionally immature) kids & adult children
(if we don't address it, usually in therapy)
those memories serve as guardians to that gap in our consciousness
the fear of feeling the same shitty way we felt when some adult shamed & guilted us to get what THEY need from us
you know what gets put in the gap in consciousness where language around LGBTQ+ language could be
little passive-aggressive, snarky comments to "keep us in line" with what the PARENT wants
or in the worst cases? full on fucking *meltdowns*; our adults displaying their own emotional immaturity
but
your child will NEVER be a carbon copy of a parent *AND* be healthy
parenting is not just replicating oneself (tho sure, that happens)
it is providing an environment where a *brand new* -self can grow and learn to nourish itself with what *THAT* self needs, not what the PARENT needs
we find new ways of expressing ourselves, new language that was NOT provided to us by our communities and adults
and often our parents have no way of dealing with this healthily
the only way they knew to parent was to REPLICATE themselves π
but if your language for expressing yourself is ONLY rooted in copying your adults you are limited in expressing yourself
and alot of folks (including me) who grew up in these limiting environments eventually find that the only option for inner peace is breaking out of those limits
they don't separate sexuality & gender *because* validating that language shows that their adults' language was inadequate
which causes fear in them that *they're wrong*, that *their* adults are wrong, that in not giving their kids *certainty* about gender binary identity they're failing their kids
the only words I inherited to essentially push down THAT feeling was "sodomy is a sin"
evie X-ians don't have language to dissect personally identity down further than
'man bucket' (OK)
'woman bucket' (OK)
'anything else' (bad)
I was emotionally immature for way too long as a young man, & in my immaturity I had many unidentified FEELINGS about non- straight-presenting folks that I had no way to express
most could be boiled down to unexplored fears
but I ALSO had a sense of "what is so bad about all that?"
I was raised in evangelical X-ianity
and my adults' passed on to me that it was a 'sin' to be homosexual
(they didn't pass on language around being 'lesbian', 'bi-sexual', 'trans', 'queer', or 'non-binary' because they didn't have language from THEIR adults about any of that)
this is the true cause of the *parent's rights* narrative
some parents don't wanna hafta *learn new words* to explain reality to their kids (even though the words are widely available to curious minds)
instead they'll hold kids hostage in a limited worldview to replicate the bigotry they trust
well done!
I ain't gonna be on a baking show but I can make a kiddo happy π
