[quote=Anonymous]OP, your child is almost 8. You are several years outside the range where it is appropriate for you to help him navigate playground dynamics. You are hellbent on seeing this as a "pushy girl, bossed around boy" dynamic with no evidence for the dynamic other than there being girls and boys and conflict about a swing. If the kid telling your kid to use a different swing had been male, likely you'd be framing him as "aggressive" and be asking for how to coach your son to deal with bullies. Either way, he's starting what, 2nd grade? Your role at the playground now is transportation, not participation. Back off.[/quote]
