1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: Well and Woody podcast many what's harder raising boys or

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: raising girls? Now, there's obviously no right answer here, but

3
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 1: I am very interested to hear how people.

4
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 2: Justify it, and I like hearing this. We've got Jerome

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: here is Gollum thirteen one sixty five. Jerome, you've had boys,

6
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 2: you've had girls. You've had four boys and two girls.

7
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 2: What's your opinion, Jerome?

8
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 3: The girls are much harder, a lot more money, but

9
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 3: much more.

10
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 4: Rewarding in the end.

11
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 5: So expensive but rewarding, is that right?

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 4: Okay?

13
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 3: So I've got four kids from my first marriage. They

14
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 3: live in Israel. Yeah, and all my boys talk to me,

15
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 3: but my daughter's the only woman that actually calls me.

16
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 3: Then and then on the other hand, last week she said,

17
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 3: I want to come and visit you and see my

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 3: half brother and sister.

19
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 4: Two and a half grands to come a visit us

20
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 4: in a couple of weeks.

21
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: Okay, So girls, girls are harder, more expensive, but more rewarding.

22
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 4: Right.

23
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 5: Gee, whiz, how's that for a synopsis? Jeez, you've got

24
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 5: the more expensive gender. Wood's got that nightmare.

25
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: Let's go. Let's go to Peter here. Peter, what do

26
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 2: you think it harder to raise girls.

27
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 3: Definitely girls.

28
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 5: Why why Peter.

29
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 3: Oh man, I've got three girls and one boy. Yeah,

30
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 3: and the girls that attitude that they have. Yeah, three

31
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 3: year old, a three year old up is just it

32
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:36,320
Speaker 3: just gets worse and worse.

33
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 2: So do you think I think the girl was easier

34
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: from zero to three because honestly, like Remy has been

35
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 2: a dream. So she's going through a four month progression

36
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: right now, which is a bit of a nightmare. But

37
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 2: like I feel like early on I hear that girls

38
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 2: are really easy but then become a bit harder later on.

39
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: Is that your experienced, Peter?

40
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 3: I think just first children are easy and then they

41
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 3: having more Gosh.

42
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 5: They such weird.

43
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 1: Sorry, Peter, you you made that decision in your own time.

44
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: There was no child coaxing you to conceive again, that

45
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: was your goal. Yeah right, okay, So with Peter, what's

46
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: the what's the toughest thing you've had to deal with

47
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,359
Speaker 1: with your daughter? For her to be that deemed is

48
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: that difficult?

49
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:21,959
Speaker 3: I think the internet is really stressful with girls.

50
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: Just things, things that she absorbs there that you can't

51
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: sort of protect her from.

52
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yep. That and just trusting people who were talking

53
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: to her. That's really big and like, my boy can

54
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 3: go out and I don't stress so much walking home.

55
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 5: But that doesn't make her difficult. That just makes it vulnerable.

56
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 3: But that's you said. What's the most difficult part. Difficulty

57
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 3: is like the attitude, that kind of thing.

58
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, God, you don't remember my sister was a teenager

59
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 5: that was tough.

60
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 2: Times, slaming doors, slaming doors.

61
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 5: I don't think I spoke to her five years.

62
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's a good way to do it, I

63
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 2: reckon she.

64
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 5: We just would you like ships in the night?

65
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because she was a tough patch.

66
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 5: It was tough.

67
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: Let's go to Annette here.

68
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 5: It didn't happen, It happened the five year period.

69
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, selective memory and that which one do you thinks

70
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 2: harder boys or girls to raise?

71
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 4: I think boys are, especially as a single mom, definitely.

72
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 5: Oh wow, okay, okay, talk to us in it. Why.

73
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I separated, so my son for five and ten,

74
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,839
Speaker 4: I have a bit of a gap. Yeah, so at

75
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 4: that age they were sort of okay. But as they

76
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 4: grew into young men, I found it a lot harder

77
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 4: because it was very hard to relate to how men

78
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 4: relate with each other. So I couldn't explain it was

79
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 4: a situation.

80
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: What was the toughest What was the toughest sort of

81
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: situation there that you have to sort of try and

82
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: reach into in it, it's.

83
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 4: At school, like the way boys relate to each other.

84
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 4: It's school and those social environments versus how girls.

85
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, don't talk, we shut down, we shut down.

86
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 2: We just have a wrestle. Just just tell them to get

87
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 2: in there and have a wrestle everybody.

88
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 4: But I don't like that. You need to talk it out.

89
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 2: No head hitst wrestle.

90
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 1: What's your tactic then? And then we'll put the wrestling

91
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: into one side weekend. What's your what's your what's your

92
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 1: tactic in it? To get your boys talking? I don't

93
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 1: know if you listening to the show, but I'm very

94
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: passionate about this stuff, getting getting men to do because

95
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,359
Speaker 1: that's a huge part of everything that's right in the DNA,

96
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: and this show is getting more boys to talk more often.

97
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: So what's just for other moms out there this thing?

98
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: What's your tactic to get your boys to talk?

99
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 4: Yeah? I try to explain, like you know, when because

100
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 4: boys do rough house right and other men say, oh,

101
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 4: it's normal, and I'm like, well, I don't think it's normal,

102
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 4: Like you need to find out why. And I try

103
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 4: to encourage my son. You know, if someone sort of

104
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 4: like bullying him, why do you think they're bullying you?

105
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 4: Do they like even if it's a friend, even if

106
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 4: it's a friend, which confused me. And he goes, oh yeah,

107
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 4: like you've had trouble at home with his mom. And

108
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, so maybe you just need to say, look,

109
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 4: what's going on, like why are you doing this? And

110
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 4: give them the up to you to say, oh, yeah,

111
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 4: maybe I shouldn't have done that. I've just had a

112
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 4: rough night or something very hard.

113
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 2: I think your boy's lucky to have you as a

114
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 2: single mum, because there's more boys need to be getting

115
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 2: told that rather than this knob over here is than

116
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 2: he should have wrestled with him. Honestly, young boys need

117
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 2: to be heard. Ask him, mate, why why do you

118
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 2: react like that? That's really good in it?

119
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, nice in it, really good stuff. Lovely to hear

120
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 5: from you. Mate.

121

Speaker 1: You can have spinal these pillow for your calls afternoon.
