[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I chaperoned a field trip yesterday for my 4th grader. I only have boys so I only get groups of boys when I do these things. [b]They never make the field trip groups co-ed, for some reason. [/b]I watched somewhat longingly at the girl parents chaperoning their groups of girls, who for the most part listened and followed along. My boy group was running in the walking areas and I had to stop a few from climbing things. No big deal but they require a bit more physical supervision. Then I noticed that the girl groups had some more subtle rivalry. A girl would be excluded from a seating arrangement or a conversation. Ugh. Stopping kids from climbing a fence is much easier than that! There are pros and cons. I love my boys and I would never have wanted anyone differently. I wouldn't have minded an addition of a girl, though. [/quote] Because most girls that age don’t want to hang out with boys. Bodies are starting to change, etc. [/quote]
