I'm oscillating between overwhelming joy and crushing anxiety. I'm not sure what type of world I'll be bringing this child into, but I'm still deeply excited.
Does anyone have resources on parenting books by communists? I'm anxious and I want to feel like I'm doing something, but I don't want a parenting book written by some consultant fuck, if I can avoid it.
Thanks, JohnBrownsBooty. It's good advice and I'll keep that in mind.
And congratulations! The anxiety fades over time and the joy gets bigger. Despite the horrors of creeping fascism and climate collapse, I don't regret our daughter.
Good to know. If we're not training the next generation, someone will. At least I can read the manifesto as a bedtime story and conduct arms training.
I've been reading Mao to my girl I'll probably switch to less explicit theory when she's more cognizant and focus on critical thinking and morality (don't want to "assign" her an ideology) then when she's older I'll help her pick it back up.
