we should expect the same outcomes but using different mechanisms. Its a disservice to allow boys to not excel because "boys will be boys"

This is true- but much like an adhd label- gives silent permission to not keep standards and boundaries and do the extra work boys sometimes require. As they say- we love our boys and raise our girls. Girls are kore disciplined because they are

Thank you for being the voice they need! Society can be so cruel to boys.

Thank you for this! as a mom of 2 boys I have been so frustrated by this culture not understanding boys and expecting them to behave just like girls or its seen as bad behavior. I do not excuse poor behavior in my boys and teach them kindess, empathy, and discipline. They can be well behaved and still be more energetic that is normal childhood development for them not bad behavior.

I had a super active little girl and the preschool teachers were so so cruel to her and us. Wanting diagnoses and saying there were issues.

Best book explaining this is “Why Gender Matters”. Every parent and teacher should read it

I appreciate this, I am an only child and my first child was a girl. When I had boys I was surprised how much more active they were than her.

school was created for just boys in the 1900s and it has stayed largely the same. if boys then could do it then boys today can do it no?

I made a comment on a teacher’s TikTok (basically shaming boys over their bathroom pass being more tattered than the girls) I said how my son has had nothing but female teachers since kindergarten and he noticed they almost always play favorites with the girls. And how we need more men in grade school education. And that school is not set up for how boys are wired. And I am getting ripped apart in the comments. All the women attacking me because they assumed I’m a man (I am not) or assumed my son is a trouble maker (he is not. Never been in trouble once, straight a student) or that I am a toxic “boy mom” I also have a daughter and she noticed the same thing 🤷‍♀️

my son is currently only 16 months old, and we plan to homeschool. what would be a good technique to allow him to act like a boy without punishment, but still teach him how to focus and get work done?

Thank you! I am with you. Those gender differences can also be seen in academic performances. How about you mix ages? Boys enter schools one year later? The differences would be smaller?

True. There is no reason for people to fight the facts.

Thank you so much for this!! My son just turned 3. I always thought something was wrong because sometimes he would start a craft or puzzle but then a minute later be up running around. We read books and 2 minutes later he’s off to do something else. I always thought why can’t he pay attention to the task. Thank you so much 😊

Ive had 2 girls & about to have our first boy this month. I keep training my brain to understand raising him will be so much different. My girls talked so early & easy to teach. I know he will walk sooner than them but talking will come later. I have to keep this all in mind, thank you for sharing!

what are some daily exercises for my toddler boy to do to stay active and I've even heard do before bed? he also has a sister that is two years older. I've been thinking about doing morning dancing and exercising, I just need to get my bum to it. I think it would be good for me too 😆.
