Lee, what a great question. To be honest we've raised our children exactly the same. DS#2 went through a stage of playing with his sisters dolls and that was fine with us. My boys are actually totally opposite in the sense that my eldest is messy and hates cleaning up whereas DS#2 is neat & tidy and loves helping me with doing some of the housework. DD#3 is very girly but will also get outside and play in the mud and pick up worms, much to the disgust of DS#2. It's amazing how siblings can be so different to each other, they just develop their own personalities and I think we have just taken things from there.

Regards,
Dianne
