Answer 1

The reaction of the moms, who laugh and say "Boys will be boys!" in response to Mathias hitting Timothy with a truck, would best be described by **gender roles**. This phrase is often used to reinforce traditional expectations regarding male behavior, suggesting that such aggressive or reckless behavior is typical or acceptable for boys.
