What in heck kind of parents forbid an 11 year old, either sex, to climb
trees? The kid will not only go out an dclimb trees, put will probably
try to climb the biggest one in the neighborhood...as far as your son is
concerned, don't worry about him...expecting kids to be clones of you is
unrealistic...we raised 5 kids, 4 boys and 1 girl...each is different
than the other and each is different than their parents...some share our
interests, some do not...that's life...it makes for a much more
interesting family...
