Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

Boys prefer rough-and-tumble play and generally are more competitive and dominating in their interactions. Girls' play is more cooperative, prosocial, and conversation-oriented. Girls' interactions with one another are typically enabling which means that their actions and remarks tend to support others and sustain the interaction. In contrast, boys' interactions are often constricting which means that one partner tries to emerge as the victor by threatening or contradicting the other, by exaggerating, and so on.
