## Resource

Two Australian influencers have been trolled online for revealing their son’s favourite colours are pink and purple. The influential mums hit back, saying the shaming of little boys for liking pink and purple could very well be the beginning of raising a misogynist.  US actor Jenny Mollen has come under fire for posting a series of photos on social media of her embracing her 12-year-old son, whilst lying in bed. The incident has sparked debate about boy mums and when to let go.  The Mums' Group is a podcast from Outspoken Media.
