Diane, wonderful answer - pick your battles. Of my four, 2 boys, 2 girls, 11, 12, 13 & 17 - they have played with it all. No baby doll or skateboard is sacred. And I have to say they are pretty well rounded kids. My boys are gentle with babies and...
I don't have boys, BUT like you, I allow my daughters to play with traditional "boy" things like hot wheel cars. I think it's great that you are comfortable enough to allow your son to experiment with all sorts of different colors and forms of pla...
My 3-year-old son loves pink nail polish - and I am happy to paint his nails pink, despite the comments I get from other family members (mostly his grandparents). I tend to try and encourage as much experimentation with all types of toys as possib...

I'm not terribly fond of pink, so it's unlikely that I'll ever dress my son in that color. But if he wants to wear it when he's older, that's up to him. His father wears pink dress shirts and ties. I haven't a clue why someone would be bothered by...
My husband was against them having baby dolls but they'd play with them at church. I don't particularly care. My sons are 4 and 2 and they're "all boy." Every stick is a sword or gun. They love dirt and puddles.
When I cook they love to help me i...
