Hey, this is Sam.

This is John.

Your OG OK Storytime podcast hosts. And we got some delicious juicy stories coming up. But if you want to hear that deliciousness, you know, just stick around for a two-minute break with a word from our sponsors. This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. My husband refused to play Barbie dolls with our son. That's really uncool, man.

I should probably do that.

And there is a trigger warning for emotional abuse.

O.P. says, this is my first time posting on Reddit, and I need advice regarding a situation

that feels weird.

My 33 female, little one, five male, has been wanting to buy Barbies and a baby doll for the last few weeks.

The daycare he goes to before and after school has these things and he enjoys playing with

them and wanted some of his own. I'm of the belief that there's nothing wrong with boys playing

with stereotypically girly toys, just like there's nothing wrong with girls playing with

stereotypically boy toys toys such as Hot Wheels.

I thought my husband 43 male and I were on the same page about this.

By the way, this comes from Worrybird She.

Hi, I'm Daniel.

And Daniel, would you like to introduce yourself a little bit? Yes, sure. Daniel, don't be scared to project. Oh, cool. My name's Daniel. I'm a psychotherapist. I live in Los Angeles, and my focus is on attachment repair. I work a lot with adolescents, and I see people in private practice. And I'm a big student of Buddhist psychology. Thank you so much. And he's here to give some

advice. Not advice. We just talked about some feedback. Yeah. And we're going to get into the story.

Yesterday, we finally got the chance to get to the store so he could get what he wanted. And our

little one was ecstatic. He used his own chore money to get a Barbie car when she was most excited about a boy Barbie and a girl Barbie.

This was great, and I was very involved in helping him pick them out.
