When and if I have kids, I would never freak out on them for wanting to pretty much just explore and have fun. I think the parents over-reacted way too much. Like we talked about in class discussion today it's not like their son knows or is going to be gay in the future just because he wears dresses now. I just feel like parents are too over protective and freak out way too much. You don't start learning and realizing sexuality between boys and girls until you hit your teen years.
Another example of parents freaking out too much, was the whole mom having a heart attack about her daughter being called princess. I understand some people are really against it. But that's like someone calling your child cutie when you both know they aren't. I don't think it is that big of a deal unless your child literally thought she was a princess and actually dressed as one and expected to be treated like one. But a lot of people don't know either, like they do it to children everyday as more of a comforting thing, so I guess both parties should take their pre-cautions. But I just feel in both situations the parents freaking out was not necessary.
