Games for boys and girls
If you ask an adult what to give the girl, then in most cases the answer is "doll". Activated stereotype. Bringing up a boy or girl, the parents usually rely on their own ideas about what should be a man and a woman. So in our culture are considered feminine traits care, tenderness and softness, and to typically masculine include force, the ability to stand up for themselves and ambition. At the same time, instilling a diaper boy that played with dolls only girl, and forbidding the girl to climb trees, adults forget that their task was to grow no footballer or a driver, a nanny or mother, and, above all, human.
If girls do not have the propensity to play in the kitchen or stroller skating, then you need to understand why this is happening, but in any case not reproach for it and do not forbid your favorite cars. Because the program all the girls must be quiet and take care of the children "or" the boy must insist on, and always win "in the head and can be forced to invest. The question is, will tell whether this is thanks for the grown-up child, torn by internal contradictions.
Often parents believe that the boy was playing in "devochkovye" game will become too feminine and acquire different sexual orientations in the future. And girls are forbidden to play with the boys in cops and robbers or fence, and almost forcibly poked dolls out of concern that it will come out of a bad mother.
Fears of parents are usually quite unjustified. The child is not immediately aware of the boy or girl and he really challenge others to help with proper sexual identification. That's only for this is quite enough to dress the child in accordance with the floor, in a moment to explain that boys differ from girls and enable parents to recognize the behavior as masculine or feminine. Otherwise it is better simply not to interfere.
Danger is not a boy playing with dolls, and defiantly take him or make fun of doll play with the girls. The child must deal with the opposite sex and be able to understand him, and this, again, it's easier to do through the game. Otherwise, the parents themselves pose the problem child of the confrontation at the floor and subsequently grown girls can begin difficulty in communicating with men and vice versa.
