Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

Parents respond differently to sons and daughters in their behavior related to gender roles. Parents tolerate mild aggression in sons to a greater degree than in daughters. Fathers are more likely than mothers to treat sons and daughters differently. For example, fathers punish their sons more, but accept dependence in their daughters. Peers are critical of and punishing toward peers who engage in gender-inappropriate play. The segregation of playmates based on a child's gender also helps solidify a youngster's emerging sense of membership in a particular gender group.
