[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Barking is not just weird. It’s so pathetic that mothers of sons are acting like the more reasonable explanation of this boy feeling entitled to insult this girl is impossible.

Girls aren’t “sluts.” Were none of you actual girls?[/quote]

I have a teen boy and as a woman who was once a girl and a decent human being I would never refer to anyone as a slut, much less a teen girl. That's despicable and wrong on so many levels. It just speaks to their hatred of women and girls.

But please don't think that every boy who does something dumb like bark is doing it to insult a girl. They are kids and do dumb shit. If I heard my son barking at a girl, I'd tell him to never to do that again and that it's not acceptable, of course. But it's really not that deep.[/quote]

If your son does this, the problem is you, your husband, and his friends.  I also have sons who don't behave this way.  If I even saw their friends behave this way it would prompt a very uncomfortable talk for them.  And I might even mention it to the kid's mom if I knew her well enough.  My sons have learned what is appropriate behavior and what is not.  So have my daughters.  It's our job as parents and we need to take it seriously.[/quote]

My kids accuse me of being Greg Heffley's mom in Diary of a Wimpy kid.  I kind of take it like a compliment.  She's involved and loving.  Her kids make mistakes and she guides them.  It's our job.[/quote]
