The article reflects on a parent’s experience with their son’s love for the color pink, which initially received minimal pushback from peers. However, this shifted when a child told him that boys shouldn’t wear pink. In response, the parent of another child recommended they encourage confidence and assertiveness by telling the boy, in a playful way, to disregard such narrow views. This highlights the tension between childhood expression and societal expectations regarding gender and attire, aiming to empower children rather than stifle their preferences.
