You can tell me, do you treat your children differently depending on gender?

Maybe not intentionally & of course they should be taught some different lessons (and lots the same.) Do you, subconsciously or unsubconsciously find yourself treating/ raising them differently?

I hope not I tried my damn best to raise my daughter just as a kid not a gender.

@JimboSaturn You only have the one? That is great but sometimes it sneaks in any way. 😥

Yes just one. I don't think it snuck in, but of course if it is subconscious I wouldn't know. I really think I didn't she is not very girly or really boy like, she is just a cute kid.@Winenot

@JimboSaturn No I guess I mean do you treat them differently at all. If you had both a boy and girl would you treat them completely the same? Same expectations, same privileges etc.

JimboSaturn · 51-55, M

Absolutely, exactly the same.@Winenot

@JimboSaturn I love how people with one child or children all the same sex can say this with such absolute certainty! 😁 Those of us with different genders, occasionally stumble.

Well I just think I would. I don't see how the gender would come into play at all. I don't even know any examples of situations where I would treat them differently. @Winenot
