Boys have a nack for getting into trouble more often then women, and women aren't as big a risk takers. <br /><SNIP> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Alas, as any parent who has had a daughter start driving lately can probably tell you, the girls are catching up to the boys as risk takers, as well as many other areas. And girls are just as likely to suffer from the group mentality syndrome. I've seen it. Equal opportunity doesn't just apply to the workplace... Used to be it wasn't lady-like to pull the stunts the boys did. Now they don't care. <br /> <br />I have no trouble picturing a van full of girls stopping on a RR crossing, then tearing off in a fit of giggles as the engineer looks to change his shorts. <br /> <br />[/quote] My point exactly! But my bottom line was if you work with them at an early age - by the time they are 16 or 17 - you will have a better chance of them not doing something really stupid, than if you just treat them as, well you know. <br /> <br />Mook <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I don't know Larry, i jsut can't picture women doing this kind of thing. Howveer, Group mentality doesn't solely affect men it affects women aswell, But I think i'm repeating myself now. <br /> <br />If anyone really wants to work with their children the golden years are 3, 4 and 5. That is the age where they are the most perceptive and will learn; <br /> <br />How to socialize <br /> <br />How to society functions <br /> <br />Taboos, and things that are not appropriate. <br /> <br />Those three years are when a child is the most receptive of all of them. <br /> <br />However, however, however. <br /> <br />Id is powerful, And it unbalanced Can reign. Raising Girls and Raising Guys are very different. I sometimes wonder what it would of been like having a brother- the competion, it's like 2 males bucking their head, would there be fights? I doubt it, I don't resolve any of my issues using violent actions. But thats jsut me- <br /> <br />i know what it's like to live with a girl- Shes you know- a girl. Nothing as hard as expected, I jsut have to haul out my bomb shelter once a month, but thats about it. Once you get used to the fact everyhting is my fault, it's simple simple stuff. <br /> <br />Women are much easier to raise, to teach, then men will ever be, they are more perceptive for longer periods of their life, and benefit much more from a school environment.
