A dummies guide to raising boys |

If there's one thing I've learnt whilst raising my boys, its that they are the total opposite to girls. I mean thats pretty obvious, but when I think back to when I was their age, I was the total opposite of them. Here are some things Ive learnt along my 
journey:
- Boys are like pigs. They are happiest when rolling in mud. Or oil. Grease... sand.... dog poo even lol
- Poo, to boys, is like finger paint. Its not dirty, it doesnt smell, and it looks great painted on walls or mushed into carpet. It also makes a great fashion accessory to their older sister's barbie dolls and makes a great necklace on the dog.
- As much as we try to steer them away from it, their family jewels will always be their most prized possession and favourite play thing.
- Food tastes best when dropped on the floor. The 2-second rule doesnt apply, 2 minutes is fine also.
- The wall is their canvas
- A punch in the arm is as nice as a cuddle, when being given to other family members.
- Make up was never intended for faces, it was intended for use on walls.
- Sanitary pads make great shoes, and tampons are a great toy for the cat to play with
- A toilet roll is best flushed down the toilet whilst full
- Milk tastes better when drank straight from the carton
- Dont bother buying soap mum, I'll wipe it off on my pants instead.
So if you're pregnant with, or have just had a little boy, brace yourself. Youre in for a fun ride!
how true it is. My son is 4 ( soon ) and I have noticed how totally different boys are to girls in sooooo many ways. How come no-one told me before hand. None of my sisters who have several boys mind you told me a thing about what to expect with boys.( My girl is 16 soon )
