THE BOY WHO LIKED TEA PARTIES

Joey likes to play with his friend Jill. They dress-up her dolls, have tea parties, and dance around the room in fancy hats. His parents encourage him to play with Billy, but Joey doesn't enjoy sitting outside in the hot sun and pushing trucks around in the sandbox. When Joey admits he has more fun with Jill than Billy, his parents seem unhappy. Why don't they want him to play with Jill?
