Raising daughters email list

[mpeel]

:help

I am looking for an ap/alternative parenting list specifically for raising daughters. I am on one currently but it is not AP and is very mainstream (no homeschoolers, etc.) If you know of one, please let me know. If not, I am going to start one, so let me know if you are interested in one. TIA

I am interested as I now have a 2yr old girl after having all boys. Could someone tell me what is involved in an e-mail list and how it works. I've heard of them but have never been on one.

[granolamom]

I am very interested, I have three girls 16, 14 and 9.

Let me know what I need to do.

Yes, yes, yes!!! I have a 4 year old boy and my little girl is only 7 months, but it is a topic close to my heart. Please PM me or sign me up: caudata@optonline.net.

Sounds fabulous - thanks for doing this work! I'd love to get it bowerseve@yahoo.com

[CorasMama]

I couldn't post on the poll, but I'd love to join!!! PM me, please.

Thanks for doing this, what a fantastic idea.

[gretasmommy]

Michelle-
What a great idea! I have looking for things to read to help my daughter, now 10 months, develop a strong sense of self so that she doesn't struggle as much with the pressures our society places on women these days. As much as I would love to be able to shelter her forever from these influences, I know that I cannot.
Thanks for starting this group! Please PM me with info.

I have creasted Raising Strong Daughters Naturally (RSDN@nurtured.com). Here is the description. Information on signing up follows.

"This is a forum for all parents regardless of race and religion interested in raising their daughters to be strong, confident women. We will discuss issues of health, education, spirituality (patriarchal and matriarchal), discipline, self-esteem, etc. Men joining should be prepared for detailed discussions about menstruation, sexuality, etc. The presence of men will not inhibit these discussions. You should practice attachment parenting to some degree. You should be prepared to raise your daughter to break stereotypical molds currently set for women in our society. If you are interested in keeping girls in stereotypical "traditional" roles and not raising them to choose these paths on their own, you need not join. The purpose of this list is to develop strong daughters capable of choosing any path they desire in life."

I e-mailed this information to my aunt who is momma to 6 kids (2 girls). I hope you don't mind. I'm getting ready to join myself. :) Thanks. :)

[kazmir]

I'm in! I have an almost 3 yr old dd and a baby on the way.

Thanks for posting this and setting it up.

[lovemykid]

Yes, very interested. One DD age 9. Let us know what we need to do.

[lovemykid]

Oops, just read your instructions... Sorry....
Can you explain the difference between subscribing to the list and subscribing to the digest? I am new at this and am :confused:

[Kylix]

I'M INTERESTED!!

I don't have any kids yet and don't know if I'll ever have a daughter (may be blessed with many boys, who knows...)

No matter, I think about what it would be like to raise a strong daughter alot. I would love to be on this email list to sort of glean some ideas off of you ladies and maybe even offer a few of my own. Hey I am a strong daughter myself, if I do say so myself. ;)

I have 3 girls, and while I would be interested in something like this, I'm spread pretty thin right now.

[Kiddoson]

I am interested too! Pm me :)

[artgirl]

I'm very interested. I've got a 5 mo. old.

[TieDyeMom]

Count me in! My dd is only 4 mos old but it would give me a good strong start! Keep us posted!

[DiaperDiva]

I would love to join. I have a 2 yr old dd.

[DiaperDiva]

Have you thought of creating a Moms of Girls thread in Finding Your tribe?

Might be easier than setting up an email group, since we're already here :D

[mpeel]

The instructions for joining the group are on the first page of the thread. Or, send a blank email message to rsdn-request@nurtured.com with subscribe as the subject.

I did not do a thread as I do no have time to daily surf the message boards here. I run a business and homeschool. If it does not come to my email box, I may not to it for days.

Thanks.

[merpk]

Signed up already.

Kind of like the idea of a list better than another thread that will disappear in a few weeks when we're all played out ...

Thanks -

My mom freaks out that I let my dd (7 1/2) watch me try to relactate. Justice gets as excited as I do when there is actually milk coming out. I want to teah her all about AP parenting!

(smart, strong and beautiful- that's what i say to my dd every day!)

[Spookygirl]

I am very excited about this! I would love to be able to talk to other AP mammas about raising strong, healthy and powerful daughers!!

[Irishmommy]

I've been trying to get unsubscribed and it says it can't find me. Well it finds me abour 4 times a day!! Someone please help!!

[stacey31]

I would definately be interested! I am homeschooling Anna(6) and Sophia(5). Please add my email to your list
iwdip@yahoo.com

[mpeel]

You have to add yourself at rsdn-request@nurtured.com put subscribe in the subject

[heytootsy]

What a fantastic idea!!! My daughter is 2 months old, better to start young! Thanks for doing this

[fourlittlebirds]

Will the messages be archived anywhere?

I signed up, too, my daughter is 22 months old.

[hvl25]

I have 2 older boys, ages 9 and 4, so all this girl stuff is new to me. Any my way of parenting is totally different from the way I was raised. I would love it. I just moved and tried starting my own yahoo group locally but have had no luck.

[abimommy]

Sounds like a great idea. There have been threads about raising sons in FYT..I dont know why we haven't had one about daughters. I have a 2 year old dd.

You can always request a thread be archived so it isn't deleted.

[Piglet68]

I'm going to move this thread to FYT for more exposure...

[Mom_2_3_girls]
