[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have boys the same ages as yours and yes, I let them wrestle/playfight/tackle each other. Yes, it inevitably ends with someone getting hurt or upset. The thing is, I don't think I can stop it unless I keep them fully separated all the time. Boys this age (at least mine and their friends) are irresistibly drawn to physical play. The best I can do is set ground rules to make sure no one is truly injured in the process. [/quote] You sound like one of those “boys will be boys” sexist types. If your girls were ‘irresistibly drawn to you physical play’ would you stop them and tell them to behave themselves? I know you would it’s a rhetorical question. So why different rules because they have a penis? Shouldn’t they be held to the same behavioral standard “we don’t hit or fight” that girls are held to?[/quote]
