[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's great, but let's be real.. boys are stronger than girls, so it's easier for them to shovel the ice.  DH said he had a hard time breaking through the ice, so he got a chain saw and that seemed to work.[/quote]

So, what? You don't think the kids that were out there deserve recognition? Just because your daughter and husband couldn't hack doesn't mean that these kids that could - and did- don't deserve a shout-out. [/quote]
What about "I think it's great"  doesn't say that they don't deserve recognition.

My point was that it would be difficult for girls to do it because they are weaker, and yea, my 61  yr old engineer DH probably doesn't have the same strength and stamina now as some of these "young men".

Also, I have a 20 yr old DS (who is away at college right now) who did help when he was home. So, it's not like I hate on young men or something. jeez.

And my 17 yr old DD also shoveled snow. Even I, a petite female, shoveled snow.[/quote]

Your conditional, "but let's be real" shows us what you really think. 
Who cares if it would be harder for some girls to do it? Really? Is the only thing that matters is whether more girls can get out there and do it? Right now, it's this group of boys who are doing good work and deserve the compliments. [/quote]
