i love to wrestle! when your boys are all glistening and tired and heavy breathing, their skin red from rolling around on the floor and the victor has taken his spoils, does anyone get rewarded with special attention from you? or you’d only watch them? would they ever play too rough with one another and you have to intervene in some way, scolding one, comforting the other, or do you expect them to sort it out amongst themselves?🧢

Hey Blue Ball Cap Anon 😊

What a lovely scenario you’ve painted!

I would absolutely love up my boys (if I had boys), tell them how perfect they are, how proud I am to have such good, strong, obedient boys. And then, of course, give them treats. And just like everyone, different things are treats for different people, so they would be tailored to suit each of them.

I imagine the loser being so upset and flustered that any additional real punishment (like being sent into the corner or being dismissed) would feel… mean. And that’s just not my jam. I imagine comforting the loser and asking him how he could do better, what will he do to please me more, etc.

As much as I love to watch, I also like to be right in there too. So I wouldn’t ever just leave it to them to sort out. I’m too hands on for that.

Thanks so much for the question!

Hugs,
