Which parent do you think will have the greater influence on how a boy will end up treating a woman when he grows up? Is it how he observes his father treating his mother and other women or is it the treatment he sees his mother(and other women) accepting? Or could it be that both parents influence equally? Would like to hear other opinions,especially the men.

wave Great topic!

I am a woman and sadly have no children yet. I did observe what happened with my brother. My parents were wonderful, had excellent values and communicated them well. That said, when my brother got to be a young teen and started experimenting with dangerous drugs and treating my mother disrespectfully, my normally wonderful father did nothing. This was bad for her and worse for my brother. I think my father lived vicariously through him so he could somehow rebel against his (and I hate this term "nagging") wife. He allowed my brother to break rules, disrespect and hurt my mother. Now my brother can't keep a girlfriend. He doesn't have any respect for women. So, the point is fathers must back mothers always and not allow their sons to be disrespectful.

Best of Luck!

I grew up in a 2 parent family My mom had a great influence on how I treat women, even though I was closer to my dad. My dad treated my mom with respect and love. So I would give a slight edge to my mom, but both had great influence.

Good question Tainogirl.

Hi-Twave I've been lucky and had equally loving parents so I can't speak from experience regarding the negative aspect of your post. I supose traditionally a boy will look up to his father for male guidance but should that be bad guidance, the child should be able to judge that from what society states to be right or wrong regardless of weather the mother is submisive to ill treatment say.

The influence of both parents is vitally important but should one of them be more damaging then this will have the major negative affect on the child. But whether this imprints on the mind and is then repeated by the child in later life or used as an educational tool for change, it all depends on the individual, the amount of damage done and their own intellect I supose.

Superb topic.

I was raised by my father, his mother until she died being my matriachal influence.

I was singled out at school because I had no mother as such. In the end I was excluded from my high school and sent to boarding school.

Which were the best years of my life. With my own children, I have maintained that they have a relationship with their father and they are close to him. For them it has had greater benefit that they are with both of us. For me? I was better off with my father than I was with my mother.

He has been a great influence on my life, loving, hard, kind, tough. He had to do a job of two parents, like many lone parents do. He is the best, handsome, lovely and I inherited his fighting spirit, his smile, his eyes...

He raised me with a passion, a drive as for him he had to prove to the world that he could do it, it was rare for fathers to get full custody 30 years ago. Amazing, beautiful man, that I adore.

I know this was about a boy. But I wanted to tell you about a girl.

I don't think any gender of parent has an influence, as long as their is one person in a childs life that loves them and cares and helps them on their way...
