This week we asked: What does political and social activism look like for natural parents?

Read more about activism on our resource page, and enjoy this week’s articles on the theme.

Please keep in mind that our NPN readers are a diverse group with many passions and causes, not all of which align with everyone else’s. We welcome a multitude of viewpoints.

  1. Great photos! I often took my older daughter to the polls with me, but don’t have any snapshots of us there. I think a NIP shot would fit nicely, but I don’t have one of those, either.

    Ah well, thank you to those that did find shots to share. I love NPN WW!

  2. Love those forward thinking babies! I don’t have any photos of political activism either…unless you count the Great Cloth Diaper Change as social activism :)

    Would love to have had a photo of my ballot when I voted to repeal prop B…and re-legalizing gay marriage. I certainly had both kids with me for that ;)

  3. Great photos. I love seeing kids taking part in activism!

  4. Great pics! I wish I had been more creative with coming up with a photo for this week’s theme. Now I’m thinking of several that would have fit. I’m having difficulty with the Linky today, so here’s mine:
