I think the difference between raising and boys and girls is inherently different, just genetically designed differently. My son, when he was a toddler, everything for him was a weapon; every stick or car was a sword. My wife just couldn't understand it. It was foreign to her. My daughter came along and nothing was a weapon. Everything was a fairy or a princess. Everything was about clothes and fashion. Obviously, those are just my kids. It honestly doesn't matter. Boys and girls are just very different and should be celebrated. I think the make-up of a boy and a make-up of a girl are just that you have to recognize and take advantage of and do stuff in that arena, don't try to push them in a different arena. This is my daughter, and this is what she loves.
