[quote=Anonymous]NP and I don't see how earlier posters were trolls. It really is a question of both teaching your child that most things aren't "girl" or "boy" but helping them come to see that many people in society do feel that way and they'll have to decide how they feel in that context. We have good friends whose son loves glittery nail polish but he eventually decided just to put it on his toes because in K and 1st grade he got made fun of and at least this way it was hidden by his sneakers. More power to you that your son is confident enough to want a pink backpack, but are you prepared to support him if in October he realizes that he isn't yet strong enough to stand up to the societal norms and instead wants a Spiderman backpack?[/quote]
