Happy Nonbinary Parent's Day everyone!

Just like how Mother's Day is the second Sunday in May & Father's Day is the third Sunday in June, the third Sunday in April is Nonbinary Parent's Day

I was originally hoping to have some fanart of nonbinary parents from one of my fandoms here, but while nonbinary characters are definitely becoming more visible in fiction, there aren't a whole lot of (canon) NB parents that I'm aware of. If anybody knows of a fandom with canon nonbinary parents, let me know

Anyways, here are some links and goodies for anyone who wants to celebrate!

Here's a lullaby that uses parent names other than the typical Mommy or Daddy for parents to sing to their little ones

Did you know oak trees are both male and female and belong in the family Quercus ("queercus") ;) And that they help their offspring by sharing nutrients and fungi? 🌠

Nonbinary Parents Day - 3rd Sunday of April

Mothers Day - 2nd Sunday in May

I have no interest in getting pregnant, but I'd be sooo happy with a pregnant wife

I don't feel like breastfeeding (ughhh *shivers in dysphoria*) but bottlefeeding when mommy is far away? YES

Bringing life to this world? Nah, I'll pass. Taking care of a child who just came to this world? YES

I require your assistance. One of my nonbinary characters, Koro (they/them) has, in my novel, just had a child with their husband. Since the child is very much a newborn for the whole duration of book 1, I've simply been calling Koro a parent as the narrative voice. However, book 2 takes place a few years later, and the kid will definitely be talking.

So, my question is,

What do your children call you?
