 Moms
& Mentors
As adult women, we are all role models for the young
women and girls around us whether they are our own daughters,
stepdaughters, nieces, granddaughters, or daughters
of friends and coworkers. Every interaction we have
with them impacts their lives and ours. And, as a parent,
you have the most influence on your daughter. Your attitudes
and opinions about everything from exercise to activism
effect her enormously. If you encourage and support
her efforts to be adventurous, to do sports, to explore
her own creativity, to fight against sexism and to fight
for her beliefs, it makes it much easier for her to
do those things.
GirlsCanDo.com is a web site that you and your daughter
will both enjoy. For her, there are contests to enter,
stories, polls, interviews--plus books, programs, music,
and movies. And whether you are looking for something
interesting for her to do next summer, a wonderful book
or cd to give her, a movie to watch together, or great
gift ideas for her birthday, we hope that you find hundreds
of ideas, inspirations and resources.
