and this is what happened:
"So, DD has got really interested in bones, muscles, what's in the body etc last few weeks. Yesterday we got lots of great books with pictures out of the library and she decides she wants to be a bone-fixing doctor, sawing up bones and pinning them together. Brilliant. Today she volunteers this to the GP, who tells her most orthopedic surgeons are men and it's much too difficult for women to make it. FFS"
I mean, really??!!! What sort of message is this?!
Anyway, I asked my friend if I could post this here as I am really interested in what other people have to say about it.
