I hope that they indulge her in both of her joys. I remember how much my son surprised me when he started grouping his toys together into families, regardless of what they were actually 'meant' for. (We had plenty of Mommy, Daddy and Baby trucks for example.) I will say that I never encouraged him towards the more typical, violent toys marketed to boys (seriously, who wants their three year-old watching the Iron Man or Transformers movies?), and maybe he was more into families than death squads because of that, but he's still very 'boy', you know? One of the biggest things I discovered about gender as a parent is that if you let the kid alone, as long as they're CIS they'll end up showing all the normal behaviours of their gender anyway--just maybe not all the culturally sanctioned ones.
