Every day children are exposed to gender expectations. These expectations are presented to them in a multitude of media. Aside from these different mediums that will be discussed within the blog, children are exposed to gender expectations by different adult role models that are present in their lives. In some instances a child who grows up in a “single mother household” may take on aspects that are deemed feminine as well as those that are masculine. Whereas a child who has two opposite sex parents in their home may only take on their specific gender roles. Every child, every household, and every outcome is different.
