DS loves to play with his action figures and is most recently into Star Wars and playmobil pirate figures.
He loves to play goodies and baddies with them which usually includes them fighting and the baddie being put in prison etc. Even the playmobil toys he got for Christmas came with swords and guns and I'm just wondering if this kind of play is healthy and normal?
He's a kind gentle and sensitive boy and not agrees I've in any way but I'm worried this type of pretend play is not good.
Why are boys in particular so fascinated with fighting and killing baddies with guns etc?!
Is this a normal stage of development and how is best to deal with it and tone it down? Or am I over reacting and shall I just let him use his imagination and play?
