[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like the 3rd grader thinks it's her role in these situations to "police" your son. She doesn't realize that it isn't appropriate. I've seen lots of girls this age with similar behavior (usually towards their own siblings). It's not unusual. That said, it sounds like at these ages the two of them don't mesh well together. So you either need to keep your DS home with a sitter or bring a sitter with you to take on the role of "policing" (not that your son needs it - rather the girl needs to be told be an authority figure that it isn't her role). Don't worry about it too much. In a year or two (or three) the dynamic may change enough that they can be in the same room together without an adult present. Right now though, it's clear that they can't.[/quote]
