Comparing my dad to your dad

When I was little, as boys we would always argue saying things like, "My dad is stronger than your dad!" or similar such things. I'm curious if girls ever did the same? Did you compare moms instead? What characteristic did you often compare?

I never did that but who knows other girls may have. I probably *played* mommy at some point , like feeding a doll or something. I didn't know boys did that, interesting 💪

@Coralmist I think it had to do with wanting to be strong like our dads...if our dad was strong then we would be too. Maybe kids these days aren't like that?

@zerostarshine Well I bet some still do😌 I know that they do like to talk about their strength. I used to sit for five boys, and one of them said to me, Look at these guns! Lol at 11. And he flexed his arm.

@Coralmist I remember doing that too...when I didn't even have "guns" lol

@zerostarshine Lol he really didn't either..he was kind of being silly 😛 But it's interesting what kids observe and talk about
