I just read a blog about how a mom feels like she’s stifling her son because she has to apologize for her son’s behavior when he is just “acting like a boy” and “being rough”. She doesn’t think we should be telling our sons “hands off” and to “calm down” so much when playing with friends. I’m not going to feed the trolls by commenting on the article, so you all get my two cents.

Firstly, why does this have to be about gender? Second, no. You definitely should give your child lots of opportunities to run, play wildly (in his own space) wrestle (with dad, uncle, some other willing kid), but no they do not need to be rough when they play with other kids. Let them be physical. Race, kick a ball, even swordfight with sticks, but no pushing/smashing into each other/wrestling is needed for a good time. And if it is, do it with your brother at home because it isn’t happening at my house. My son wrestles with his daddy, not his little friends. I do not need hurt kids here.

Working with little kids, I feel like one of the most important parts of my job is to teach them that no and stop need to be respected. The only touching that needs to happen is a hug, and only if the other kid is willing. Being rough without regards to other kids is teaching kids that consent doesn’t matter. (Yes, I do take it that far.) I believe that if you let kids be rough and continue when the other person says no, stop, or even just looks like they aren’t having fun, you are teaching them to be rapists/abusers/jerks. Seems like I’m escalating quickly to that extreme, but I really do believe this. Boundaries need to be set every day, sometimes even minute to minute. You may not be rough with your friends. Also, good luck to you if your child is going to school and you didn’t give them the skills to play without being rough. I’ll agree it’s harder with some kids than others, but gender has nothing to do with it.

Yes - 100%. Teach consent from the start. If my son touches me when I’ve ask him not to I remind him that it’s my body and I get to say where and when it’s touched and he needs to listen to me because he’d want to be listened to if it was him. Usually this comes up if he’s trying to tickle my neck (a spot I don’t like anyone touching) or if he has germy hands in my face (wash your hands first, please) or if he’s trying to bounce on my tummy when I’m not feeling well.

He is 4. I know I’m going to have to constantly repeat myself about this stuff for a long time for it to click. I do it when I chaperone field trips and during play-dates too. “Ask your friend if they want a hug before you hug them and be gentle”. Sometimes he’s just excited and riled up, other times he’s pushing boundaries to see how far he can go. My husband also sets physical boundaries and backs me up when our son is too rough. It’s good for him to hear it from both of us.

And it’s good to give him consent to hug and kiss and snuggle us, too. I want him to know love is always available to him. We do a lot of hugging and snuggling here.

I hope that by modeling consent the lesson will expand as he gets older. That he’ll know it’s not OK to touch or be touched when a friend or he expresses they don’t want to. And by my husband and I backing each other up he’ll hopefully see that it’s important to stand up for someone else who he sees is not being heard.

Society’s obsession with the “post-baby body” has got to be one of the most insidious and harmful things.

Like, why do we hate maternal bodies so much? Why are mothers’ bodies and how we feed our babies so threatening to so many people?

Why do we keep infantilising women by expecting women to look like young girls when they’ve just given birth?

As women we need to really push back against this form of violence against our collective self-love.

Lately I’ve been getting most of my pep talks from Mister Rogers.

mintypineapple

Great. Now I’m disappointing Mr. Rogers.

nudityandnerdery

Nah. Mr. Rogers wouldn’t be disappointed. He hopes for the best for us, but he knows life is hard. And he knows you’re doing the best you can. And he’s proud of you for that.

The phrasing here is important, too. “The healthiest life you can possibly have,” frames it as a necessarily subjective standard. I feel like I rarely see this framed in such an open and inclusive manner. “The healthiest life you can possibly have,” is a construction which empowers you to make the best choices for your current needs, not the best choices against an external, objective demand. Making a choice to set different priorities based on your current capacity is very much within that standard. Not sure he meant it that way, but given all we know about Mr. Rogers’ sensitivity to such concerns, I’m betting its no accident.

Sexual violence on college campuses is a major problem we need to address. Emma Watson had some words for everyone this week while at the UN. (x)

My husband and I are surprising our 6 year old by taking him to Disney for his b-day tomorrow. We’ve been in the car for 4+ hours and he still thinks we are on our way home from school. He keeps saying “looks like we’re almost home!” 😂

Bless his heart.

Update: we arrived to Disney World, he thinks we took a wrong turn and is very concerned about who is going to feed our cat.
