@Vanessa: Not all boys are alike either, and I hope Trent isn’t expecting his sons to behave exactly like himself.

Nothing wrong with noting the differences between boys and girls, but I hope Trent isn’t expecting his daughter to behave exactly how his books say. Not all girls are alike.

And as his only daughter, I hope Trent doesn’t give her a complex by constantly pointing out how different she is from her brothers.

Does Trent’s wife have the same issues relating to their sons?

It’s human nature that what we see in other people’s behavior is influenced by what we want to see. If you go in thinking “Boys are like me, so they’re easy to understand, but girls are weird and different,” that is what you’ll find.

‘I was once a little boy myself…’

Yep, ’cause little girls are alien creatures, and there’s no way you can possibly understand them without quite a lot of time reading books. Sigh.
