Tell me something good about little boys!

[Squiglet]

I've just dropped my daughter off at her friends party, a little boy called Arron. Her other friend Pablo was there, and when they all went to school together, they were nicknamed the three amigos because they were always together... Sadly Aaron move to another school last year, but Pablo and Tia are still good friends.

What unnerved me most is just how difficult and badly behaved the little boys were. Pablo is one of the most loving little boys I have ever met but he just never stops! Really it's quite scary.

I have a friend in the UK also, and last year we went to her son's birthday party and the little boys were just downright naughty, horrid and difficult too... So its not a cultural thing...Its definitely a boy thing.

Now the baby I am carrying is a little boy and it got me all worried about having a little boy... Tia is such a good child and so well behaved, thoughtful, kind and loving... And I just spent half an hour in tears, because I just couldn't cope with having a child that's a little monster and I haven't met a little boy yet that hasn't been.

So as there seems to be a good deal of mother's of little boys on here, tell me something good about little boys... Please? Not babies though, they are always cute and cuddly... but 2+ sort of thing, when they become little people.

My boys are golden.

They really are, Mason is so loving and sensitive, always wants a hug and to tell me he loves me
Brody is really cheeky and adventurous, not quite as into hugs as his brother but golden just the same

I love my boys!

Hi I've got a nearly 6 year old boy. He's loving, kind and thoughtful. Mainly to me tho, him and his sister argue like cat and dog but then again what kids don't lol. He tells me he loves me at least twice a day, he's helpful and is brilliant with the little un.

I find the problems are when he has too much junk food - he goes hyperactive and horrible to me and his dad.

Maybe its the same with the ones you know- their diet can have a big effect.

I know Austin's still young but he's sooo cheeky, I love that side of him. He's going to be a complete handful as soon as he can crawl but I'm actually looking forward to it.

Maybe when your son os here you'll feel different? I'd rather have my cheeky monkey than a quiet baby.

I felt like that when i was expexting Conal although we didn't know he was a boy i was sure i didn't want a boy and only a girl would do.

When he is here and you look at him you will fall in love with him and forgive him anything, it's all about how you raise them too, i can tell Conal is going to be more of a handful than Willow but hopefully not too much of a monster

I also felt this way when i found out i was expecting a boy..Haydeni s the first boy in my family for 24 years..there had only been girls born up till now so i had no idea what to expect..i guess i thought he would be a lil monster running riot too...but i love my little boy and wouldnt change him for the world..hes loving and cuddly and when he gets older i'm sure thats not going to change.

i really think its the way they are brought up to be honest
and you have a lovely daughter you've obviously done a good job with.. theres nothing to say your son won't be the same.

I had the first boy for 2 generations in our family. He's now 13 and is loving and affectionate, well behaved but not too well behaved iykwim I've learnt more than I ever want to know about about skateboards and computers, I don't have to fight him out of little skirts or dissuade him form wearing 3 ton of make up, his school shoes are always sensible and his hair is just wash and go I don't have to worry about older men, (although he got chatted up by a 16 year old girl last week to the amusement of DH)

All in all - pretty good I think

My baby's too little to offer a persnal opinion but I can second that Mason (the only little boy I know really) is a lovely child.

Very patient and polite but a real sense of fun. My mum was totally taken with him last week. She said he was so lovely with the babies, and never got cross....even when they were punching him

You'll be fine

I know Nathans only 7 months so not really had much experiance but after having 2 little girls its heaven. The girls tend to winge and moan all the time and Nathan is so nice! Hes such a laid back pleasant baby He eats well, sleeps well and is just a joy to be around.

Josh was a really good boy till he found his back chatting voice , he is just cheeky and has his own views and a pain in the butt at times. But he is now coming up for 7 and is still into hugs and kisses which I am glad he hasnt grown out of yet. Think he will always be a Mummies boy (if I have my way he will be ).
Cant speak for Seb yet but if he follows in Josh's shoes he will be just the same . Once you see you little boy it wont matter about all the worries you have, they will go straight out the window.

Dylan is only 4 months old but when we go and see my friends twin boys (6 years old) they are loving and gentle with him..very intrested in everything and very loving to their mom.

I saw a post on here ages ago saying that boys were easier than girls as they were less moody..will find out for myself in a few years

i dont think its just a case of girls are good and boys are bad. its how you bring them up that determines whether they will be well behaved or not.
im going to make sure i bring nathan up as best i can and hope he grows up to be a good boy

 

[rusks]

at the baby and toddler group i go to i find the toddler boys are more gentle and caring with the babies than the girls, the girls are rough and some are evil!!

obviously they are always exeptions its how you bring them up too and what environment they live in makes a difference to their behaviour as well.

I suppose its the fear of the unknown... I know girls... and despite the fact that sometimes my little girl just won't shut up (shes a bit of a chatterbox), she is just so much better behaved than any little boy I know... Its not helped by my MIL telling me that she found it much easier to have a daughter than her son (mu hubby) which is a shame, because my Hubbies wonderful.... you couldn't ask for a better man.

I'm also weary because I didn't fall in love with Tia straight away... It took a few days for us to get used to each other, and I am scared that I won't bond with a little boy... But then its probably pregnancy hormones making me panic.. I can't ever imagine loving anyone as much as I love my daughter

I keep telling my OH I want a girl... I wouldn't know what to do with a boy's bits!

He grunted back I knew what to do with his to get myself into this situation... BIT DIFFERENT!

Guess I'd just have to learn

I didnt know what to do with them either at first but you dont do anything with them, except keep 'it' clean and when you put the nappy on point it downwards. Oh, and be prepared to be peed on

I know my boy is still very young but I think a childs behaviour has a lot to do with the parents temprement. I know that doesnt go for all cases

My little man is fab, he is very close to me and when he puts his arms around me for a hug and a kiss he makes my heart melt. Yes he can be a litte bugger but all kids are whether they are boy or girl.

Boys are generally closer to their mums
