I saw a list on Pinterest of 15 Things a Mom should teach her boys (found here, for your reference). I didn't like/agree with all of them, so I wrote up my own.
Found this on pinterest and I just have to comment. So many concerns with this graphic- why only moms, and not parents? Why boys and not all children? Why is "sexy" the first word on a list of important things to teach? And are you really putting God first when He only made the fifth spot on the list? I had to quit reading here. We can do better! Feel free to delete my comment, but please consider :-/
Uhm "sexy men...." then later says "keep words clean and thoughts cleaner" Not to nit pick but the contradiction & call me prude but I can't say sexy around my kids that's just a tad odd.
I think probably because they're alot of moms raising children on their own now days, and as a single mom of a Son who is my life I do have to have the answers and pray about this alot. It is easier for a woman to know how to raise a daughter I believe..... and I honestly see nothing wrong with this ! Im responding to a comment made earlier, about why is it for just mom's and son's and not parents and children ect.... I can honestly see this was ment to be helpful, meaning and for a single mom with a Son, which is great, I also like alot of other quotes I read ment for Dads, ment for both parents, children and families..... so to the reader it's all about your point of view, I find this to be nice, sweet and caring.
