for your future son

Lifestyle Relationships

In the spirit of the “for your daughter” thread, let’s hear it for the boys :slight_smile:

What are things (values, skills, mindset etc) you’d want to teach your sons, if you ever have them? or are teaching, if you do have them?

Somehow I think it’s easier to think about what we want to teach our daughters, because we were once little girls; whereas when it comes to boys, I’d have to think about it just a little more–but that’s just me. What about you all?

Tell them repeatedly that if they expect wives to help in financial matters of the house, she expects him to help in household chores equally as well. Aik nokri kar k ehsaan nai karna pooray khandaan pe keh baqi din paray raho aur biwi bahir kay kaam bhi karay aur ghar kay bhi

I dont think a woman would ever want their kid to be like her father-in-law; he fraternizes with the enemy.

Re: for your future son

To think for himself. Make his own decisions in life and earn an honest living for his future wife and kids.

To respect all women, and not just those he's related to by blood.

To treat his wife the way he would want a man to treat his daughter. Help around the home if she works too and instil those values in his kids as well.

Re: for your future son

  • Cooking, cleaning, etc are not a woman's job - they are life skills and you **will **learn them. I will not have your wife think I raised a slob.

  • Be resourceful and stand on your own two feet - never be dependent and always be the one people can depend on.

  • Giving back to the world you live in is part of your purpose in life.

Re: for your future son

Respect women!

Girls like boys who respect them.

Re: for your future son

What would you want to teach your daughter? Given the responses here, it seems like people have no shortage of what they'd like to teach their sons (mostly along the manner of respecting women), but the responses in the DIL thread were mostly light hearted.
