[quote=Anonymous][quote]I have insulted no one, just asked questions and talked about how my goal is to raise a strong girl but am worried that may be a bad fit in how maybe little girls are expected to behave? I honestly don't mean to offend.[/quote] OP, it really has nothing to do with gender. I have a boy. He has close friends who are both male and female (somewhat unusual for an 8 year old, but he does). When picking kids to invite over, I consider two things: (1) is this kid a nice person generally (I have no reason to doubt your daughter meets that criteria); and (2) will this kid be able to play with my kid with minimal need for intervention from me so that I can get some other stuff done and so that DS can work on socializing with just the other kid (it doesn't sound like your daughter would meet this criteria). Work on it with her. I am sure she is a great kid and this is something that can be worked out.[/quote]
