When my daughter plays with her dolls, she’s a mommy with a baby or her Barbies are friends going shopping. But when my son plays with his Legos or stuffies or pretty much any toys, someone is getting killed and the police/military have to come in. It’s definitely a creative outlet, but a very violent one. In his real life interactions, he’s the sweetest little boy, but someone always has to die and or get arrested when he’s playing with his toys.

Are you joking? Is that because your child has only army men and ninja toys to play with? If this happens when your child plays with doll house, farm or school little people set the play themes should not skew to murder and violence. If it does that is absolutely not normal. What does your child watch on TV?

Ah, leave it to the experts of DCUM to call out perfectly normal childhood behavior as abnormal. My child exclusively watches PBS cartoons and occasionally the news. His toys are the aforementioned Legos and stuffed animals. He used to make guns out of pencils until I bought him a nerf gun. He sometimes takes his sister’s dolls as prisoner. One of her dolls is an evil mass murderer according to him. In other words, he likes to play many variations of cops and robbers.

It’s totally normal role playing for little boys according to my child psychiatrist sister. Where did you get your MD/PhD?

But I’m sorry to disappoint you that he isn’t a gender confused little boy who wants to wear princess dresses and do makeovers on his sister’s dolls. That you’d probably be a-okay with.

PP I'm sorry, but that is not normal behavior. I'm not a psychologist, but am an early childhood specialist who and evaluates children for a living. Boys aren't inherently violent here at cause they are boys. Maybe cut back on the news. Really I think you should be a bit more concerned.

No one said the boy was violent. You just made that up. If you can't distinguish fiction from reality, you don't belong in a role caring for children.

You don't think pretending to be a mass murderer is violent?

Omg, you are really dumb. I’m the mom of the “violent” boy. He’s not pretending to be a mass murderer. His Lego police officers apprehend and arrest the doll and bring her back to the Lego police station, where she is then tried in court. It’s completely normal creative play for a 6 year old boy.

You are not an early childhood specialist. Otherwise, you’d know that elementary school age boys like to roughhouse and play cops and robbers and other “aggressive” games. It’s not societal. It’s inherent to their natures. And it’s unhealthy to try to curb their rough creative play.


You’ve obviously never read any literature on the subject, so stop pretending you’re an any early childhood specialist. Yeah right.

Here’s an article I suggested googled, with actual specialists sharing their studies:

https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/bring-it-boys-may-benefit-aggressive-play-flna1c9477173

It might be a better starting point for you to understand the basics of boyhood creative okay.

You’re also clearly not a mom of boys, otherwise you’d have seen your sons and their friends doing something similar. So why are you on here with your opinions about boy friendly creative toys?

Your misandry is gross.

Okay that's your assumption and your wrong on both accounts as I am a mother of boys and do work with children. Why would I lie? If I saw a child only playing how you describe your child does with only themes revolving around murder it would definitely raise some eyebrows. Clearly you are very defensive because something is weird here here or you are troll because what you are writing is absolutely crazy. For example, shooting pencils as guns is not inherent to boys nature.

He's a BOY and likes traditionally boy things (i.e. his story lines are superheroes, firefighters, PJ Masks saving the day, etc.), so please don't suggest getting him actual Barbies. I know how DCUM gets lol.

lol what are you afraid of?
He might turn gay if he touches a female doll?
