RE: Hey social media, stop telling me what’s wrong with boys!

in #parenting7 years ago

That was an excellent article @shareyourstory !

I enjoyed reading it, it was like a breath of fresh air in a sense.

I have two boys and a girl and I've had a few problems with my boys getting into trouble at school for simply being boys. They are for the most part very well behaved kids, so when they do get into trouble I always investigate as much as I can and they mostly get in trouble for completely trivial nonsense.

It's becoming like normal male behaviour is something to be suppressed and it's becoming almost shameful.

I love your views on how we need to connect more with our kids too, especially in this rapidly changing world.

Society beats them down and I see it as my job to be there for them and build them back up.

It must be tough being a kid these days.
