THAT'S A MAMA'S BOY

God, bless and keep you; I am very encouraged about what you are doing with your son. Keep up the good work.

You both gave encouraging comments! Do you feel insulted when your son or daughter are called by their peers with a parents name of Mama's boy, Daddy's girl, or visa-versa. I never did feel insulted, but I could see at that time my son was a little hurt over his peers calling him that. He's fine now of course, but those remarks did hurt him at one time because it was made to be-little him. I gave him lots of love.

Miisrael I have a little one who is growing up fast before my eyes. He'll be turning 4 real soon. I hope no one calls my son a 'Mamas boy' because it is an insult meant to hurt, but children will be children. I do like the spin you gave on this blog post and it is a different way of looking at something that is meant to be negative. Much love sister and keep up the good work with your son. How old is he now?

Thank you Jen. It can hurt our little men. My son is grown-up to 19 years old. He's trying to keep a clear head and pursue himself in music producing.

First Earl ...It takes a man to admit a great love for his mother. Often, men (just speaking in general not the whole population!) feel it's a weakness to say the word I love you. Love doesn't make men weak, it keeps them strong. I'm sure you are a terrific Momma's son. Now Irma.. I agree with you in every sense of the word. I find that their mother may feel that become weak sons if they show love. Please I mean no negatives to any mother. However, I've seen mothers who just show very little love to their sons. I think sons need just as much or even more love to be shown from their mommas. Dads too, can love their sons in the same manner. Appreciate your responses.

MISTRAEl,here is something to tell your (very handsome shy son)to teach his son..."and you are just jealous". Or even tell them your self that this may come up and just over look it because, "they know that you are so special".

We all know that children can be cruel to their peers and most of the times they do not really mean it therefore they soon forget it an are right back playing with each other while we adults are still upset.

I am just the opposit as I have two girls. All of our children are Mamma's boys/girls so I believe what is meant by "Mommy's boy" is when Momma refuses to turn her son over to be an ADULT or accept he can live without her still trying raising him for the rest of his adult life.

I will never stop calling my two children my children who are now both in their 40s. But, I will never stop treating them both as adults with their own familys and lives of their own.
