Male education: what should each father teach his son?

Some people think that the mother plays the most important role in the upbringing and life of the baby, but there are things with which the father can certainly cope better. This is even more important when we talk about the son.

From an early age, the boy is sent to a kindergarten, and then to a school where 90% of the cases are brought up by women. As a result, the child lacks male education.

We will tell you about the things that a father can teach a boy.

Explain why it is so important to be able to win and lose

Who, apart from friends, is the best company for the child in various games and contests? Of course, Dad. This is a good time for the development in the boy of masculine qualities. During the games, the child will be able to feel the taste of victory and understand how much effort is required to get it.

For a father, such games are a great opportunity to explain to his son that defeats are unavoidable. If he falls, he should just get up and keep going, because there is nothing shameless in the failures.

Explain how to properly treat women

The mother can also tell her son how to treat women, but only the father is able to show it all by example. It is very important that the son learns this from his father, not from friends or, even worse, from the Internet. Take your son with you when you buy flowers for his mother. Do it so that he sees how you politely communicate with unfamiliar women, for example, the cashiers in the store. Not too difficult, is it?

Talk to him like a man about love

This advice follows from the previous one. Let the son learn from you about this feeling during a man's conversation, when the time comes. For a teenager, this will become a valuable gift, especially if the father tells about his first love and first date and that he should not rush, but rather wait for the right girl who can light a spark in his soul. Such conversations are extremely useful for mutual trust.

Teach him how to stand up for himself

The father is the only person who can teach his son how to be strong, firm and be able to protect himself. He can teach the boy to determine when to respond so that the enemy is afraid to approach him, and when not to succumb to provocation. The father can explain to his son and show by his own example that kindness is not a weakness.

To help the child form his views on the world

You do not even need to do anything special. You just have to be near the child and talk to him. The boy must understand that there is not only a mother with her requirements and expectations, but also another person with a different approach.

Of course, when it comes to education, parents must adhere to the same views. But from the point of view of views on the world, their philosophy can be very different. Thanks to the father, the child will be able to understand that there are several points of view for the same phenomenon, to learn to analyze and form his own point of view.

Help your son understand that love can be manifested in different ways

Even a 6 month old child can feel the difference between the manifestations of the love of the mother and father. Unlike mothers, with their arms and caresses, fathers prefer active games. Mums usually feel a quiet horror when they see it all, but the child gets a new experience, and also a lot of visual, auditory and tactile sensations.

To teach him male studies

There are things that look like magic to most women. This, for example, kindling a fire, hammering nails, repairing a car. Even if your son is 100% "urban" child, there is no doubt that the ability to rekindle the fire will come in handy in the future. In any company, the skills described above will add 100 points to your son's reputation.

Help him improve routine skills

Of course, we are talking about tying a tie, shaving and the ability to iron shirts. Although today the answer to any question can be found on the Internet, it's hard not to recognize that it will be much better if the son finds it from his father. Moreover, who, if not the father, can show the boy that men can also cook. Well, at least, in order not to die of hunger.
