should a therapist tell parents to make their child play with gender specific toys only.?
like the parents take a girl in for therapy,who likes to be a tom boy & play with boy toys, and the therapist has told the parents that the child can only play with"girl "toys. is that ethical?
well they took the child in for anger therapy,so i really don't see how or why the therapist would suggest this? is there something i'm missing? its a grandchild of mine
its not my child though,& believe me if i had a therapist tell me that ,i'd have the child out of their in a flash i just want to know if i'm right in thinking this is odd.
true , there are things i know i don't know about, and i have been minding my own business, they are my family i want to help which is why i'm not throwing a fit or going in yelling, i 'm asking because it seems odd & i don't want to be "poking in" their business, but it concerns me for such and abrupt thing . from anger issues to suddenly stopping the child from playing with certain items. it just seems odd

If there is some question about the gender that the little girl thinks she is, then encouraging her to play with "girl" toys might be appropriate.
In the same way, if a little boy wanted to wear high-heel shoes and wear make-up all the time, and say that he was going to be a Mommy when he grew up, perhaps having him play with boys at boy games would be appropriate.
Is it ethical .... depends why the parents are asking the advice of a therapist in the first place, and do they want to follow that advice or not?

What a therapist does or does not do is up to them. As a parent, what they do is up to them as well. I find no reason for a child to be forced to play with gender specific things. My daughter is a tomboy, she is well rounded and adjusted. I hardly doubt this child's anger issues have anything to do with toys, but rather their enviornment. Children mimic what they see.

I'm a therapist. It's not a question of ethics. The therapist is making a recommendation. The parents are free to reject it.
All the best.

Did the therapist actually say that? Or did he/she maybe suggest removing toy guns and weapons and replacing them with something a bit less violent?
Since it's not your child, I'm suspecting Chinese whispers at work here.

That is quite mean.
He is messing with your child's free will if he does that.
There is simply nothing wrong with a girl to play with boy toys.
Some girls don't want to be a "girly girl" who likes pink.
Some girls like blue, me for instance I don't like pink.
A girl needs to experience different things.
I hated barbies when I was young.
I didn't play with boy toys though, I played with bratz i think.
but that's not the point
The old fart who is messing with your child doesn't seem like a proper therapist.. :L

You and I don't know what is missing because we are not the parents. There might be something very specific going on here. Just because you are grandma doesn't mean that your son/ daughter is disclosing every information to you. My advice is to MYOB.

Etremely unethical. I would send him a email with your thoughts on it.
