Mom of Four Shifts Away from Gendered Labels

Holli Grasmeyer, a mother of four, has decided to move away from using the term "boy mom" after witnessing its evolving connotation on social media. Initially, the term resonated with her as a way to celebrate her identity as a mother to sons. However, Grasmeyer began to feel uncomfortable as the label took on a "weird" twist in online discussions, often leading to divisive narratives about parenting styles and gender expectations.

In her reflections, Grasmeyer expressed concern that such labels could inadvertently reinforce stereotypes and limit the broader conversation around parenting. She believes that motherhood should be inclusive and not confined to gendered identities. By stepping away from the term, she hopes to foster a more open dialogue about parenting that embraces all experiences, regardless of the children's gender.

Grasmeyer's journey highlights the importance of language in shaping perceptions and encourages other parents to consider the implications of the labels they adopt.
