Little Dyson is only 5 but he’s got his mind made up about wearing dresses and jewelry– and his parents are good with that. Their story is interesting because it’s rare, especially for a Black father (sorry, it’s true!), to support his young son’s feminine ways. His mother was inspired to write the book, ‘My Princess Boy’– a much needed effort to promote anti-bullying.
It’s a story about unconditional love and allowing a child to express himself freely, without consequence and in-house backlash. It’s an example of the way the world should be. Don’t you agree? We encourage you to watch Dyson and his mom, Cheryl, interview on ‘New Day Northwest’, a Seattle talk show (vid below). His big brother has some very encouraging words as well. Darling, actually. They also talk about how accepting his teachers, classmates, and school are of his preferred way of dress. *sniffle* It’s such a beautiful thing. Pop the Trunk for that and more…
