If he's a young kid, nothing wrong, he wants a father-like relationship. Consciously or not.

TheOutsider	Posted Jul 10th, 2009 at 5:54PM Eh, probably not. You're a parent, not a peer. Help him to harness that energy into more productive things that don't include "violence", if just pretend. Rated: +1Vote for this!
kendu	Posted Jul 10th, 2009 at 6:38PM yeah well you should start it off and do invite other kids like his age to finish it it might be a enjoyable memory for him he is a child Rated: +1Vote for this!
singer1960	Posted Jul 10th, 2009 at 6:54PM Sure...Why not..... I have not peeked at your profile yet...So I do not know if you are male or female....But at 10...He is still a little kid...and he wants to play with you like one....So join in on the fun....Grab one of yours...Hide behind the door....And when he comes around to find you....Let him have it...and run......But make sure that he does catch you time to time...Or else the fun just runs right out of it Best of luck to you Rated: +1Vote for this!

Handle	Posted Jul 13th, 2009 at 12:36AM Yes'm you should. If you intend for this family to be apart of you in the long run then you have to form bonds, and while not trying to be a 'replacement mom' you should interact in fun, personal ways so you can form a healthy relationship in this context.
