[quote=Anonymous]I'm wondering if anyone has noticed a difference in maturity between boys and girls during the early years. I have one of each and both have been more or less the same in some respects. Boy was a little faster on the gross motor and girl on the verbal, but not a large lag between them -- like 2-3 months. Where I really notice the difference is with emotional independence. The girl separated easily from us at an early age. The boy, less so. If you have a boy and girl, have you noticed anything like this? Or do you think it's just individual temperament? Do you think boys have a more difficult time adapting to first transition to preschool, etc.? (If there are any preschool teachers here, I'd love to hear your thoughts!)[/quote]
