Little boys are different. They show affection by wrestling. For them, nothing quite says I love you like a sneak pounce attack. Daddies know this and often make allowances for this physical behavior. The trick is not allowing it to get too wild. Nobody should get hurt from overly aggressive love touches, so extreme rough housing is not tolerated by either side. My dad and I had an understanding. If I asked him to stop he would, but I could only say stop when I meant it. I was not allowed to cry wolf. My boys are beginning to understand these limits. Sometime they get too rough with each other or me, and we have to take a timeout to calm down, but most of the time the wresting is fun for all.
