[quote=Anonymous]I think we are in agreement. OP's kids are over-sensitive to roughhousing, PPs delivered some good advice and OP was very receptive, and this should not be limited to sensitive boys - as you said, an 8 yo girl should also not be crying on a regular basis. My issue is that some people are calling this 'girly' behavior that isn't 'boy like' enough. Yeah, there will always be inherent differences in boys and girls as a whole, but we shouldn't shame the outliers for being 'too girly' or 'not girly enough.' I hope it's clear I am not saying 'boys need to be more like girls.' Address the issues at hand without adding the baggage of gender expectations. [/quote]
