The Wonder of Girls This group is for parents of girls and anyone else dedicated to raising happy, intelligent, creative, beautiful, empowered girls.
Because different people have different definitions of "empowered," this group will accept lenses written from both feminist and Christian (or other religious or traditional) perspectives, as long as they celebrate the joy and wonder of girls.
NO adult or spam lenses allowed. This group is moderated.
