This used to be a normal childhood experience. Now it’s disappearing. And an overly loud and obnoxious chunk of society pretends basic biology doesn’t exist.
Let your kids roughhouse. It’s good for them in more ways than one.
Watching my twins, almost 7, roughhouse the other day. Puberty isn't anywhere close, so my daughter still holds her own.
But one day that physical gap is going to rear its head, and I won’t have to explain it. She’ll experience it, boys are simply stronger.

Even IF she wanted him to take her on a proper date and pay for it, ultimately she's asking him for his labor. This is the same thing, without the monetary middle man. Not to mention it has wholesome written all over it.
@Bythisaxeirule_@JackPosobiec Yea, that's a problem. If a new party gets in and does something about it, I'll be happy for them. Maybe we can use it as a blueprint. I'll remain sceptical until then.

I'm not denying shit sucks, my point is, you either find a way to deal with it. Or you don't. That's life. That's always been life.
We have a way of denying basic truths in our culture that drives me crazy.
