Ainsley, like many 7 year old girls, wants fashion dolls. I have boundaries set up around most fashion dolls saturating the toy section. I am not giving my kid a toy that is hyper-sexual (Bratz) or sends a distorted message about love (Disney Princesses), have distorted body proportions (Barbie), etc. But, I’m a mom who […]
Ainsley is 7 years old today. I’ve been a mother for 7 years. This, honestly, isn’t how I thought it would go. As a child, I thought I would say “yes” to everything when I became a mother. Until someone handed down a bikini for my 3-year-old and I threw it in the trash. I’m […]
Holy Canoly the paper that comes into this house. Last year I was unprepared for the plethora of paper that came into the house from school, work, home work, Sunday School and church activities. My daughter was emotionally attached to every single scrap she drew a letter, number or picture on. I had no strategy […]
Last week was heavy with emotionally charged information. So Sexy So Soon is a lot to digest before we get into something new. It took weeks for me to get over the shock from reading that book enough to write about it. Receiving such information and acting on it isn’t easy. Today we’re going to […]

When my mother came to visit this summer I asked her, “Mom, was I rebellious as a Kindergartner, a 6 or 7-year-old? Did I argue back about every single thing?” “Not until you were 14,” she said. See, that’s when I was expecting to have to deal with adolescent rebellion – when my kids were, […]
You’re probably thinking, “why do we have to choose between abstinence education and protecting our children from hyper-sexual media? So Sexy So Soon: The New Sexualized Childhood and What Parents Can Do to Protect Their Kids very clearly explains that this is not the choice we face, it’s the choice we have already made in […]
In the battle over our children – parents versus child rapists and child pornograhers – who would you place your bet on? It seemed child pornographers and clubs like NAMBLA, the North American Man Boy Love Association, whose declared “hobby” is to rape children were winning. With 300,000 known predators the FBI was monitoring, but […]
By Tracee Sioux “Kids close your eyes!” How many times do you find yourself trying to protect your children from harmful and destructive images while watching family television? Two years ago, while watching television, I was assaulted with an image of a woman wearing a see-through nightgown, nipples protruding and visible, erotic soft lighting, floating […]
The ACLU is suing a school in Kentucky which divided its middle school math students by gender. The girls whizzed by the boys so they stopped teaching the girls. I’m torn on gender-divisions in public schools, as you’ll hear in the podcast. I’d love to hear what you have to say after listening to this […]
Either you love Kate Gosselin and are amazed that she can keep it together in the face of twins and sextuplets or you’re a judgmental heartless hag. At least, that’s my personal experience with Kate-haters judging from my Kate Gosselin, Time’s Person of the Year post. There’s an article in Woman’s Day by Jennifer Rainey […]
It’s been my pleasure to share Ainsley, Perfect You with The Girl Revolution readers. You may have different ideas about religion or God or the nature of the Universe.
