Probably all mothers of boys dream of raising their sons to be self-confident, strong, brave and successful people.
But this doesn't always work out.
And failures are often associated with mistakes made by a woman in raising her son.
There are two popular parenting strategies that do not produce the best results.
It is necessary to maintain a balance. Extremes are bad. Unfortunately, many mothers forget about this.
So, what are parents doing wrong when raising a boy?
Overprotection
Of course, any good mother strives to protect her child and shield him from problems.
However, it should not come to the point of overprotection.
A mother should at least occasionally give her son freedom of choice in certain aspects of life.
If a woman does everything for her child, he will grow up dependent.
He will be afraid of making mistakes. And the presence of such fear does not allow one to act and achieve success.
Sooner or later, a boy must learn to solve problems on his own.
Excessive strictness
Not wanting to raise a wimp, some mothers become too strict.
A parent's desire to raise a "real man" is understandable. However, it is important to understand that being overly demanding and constantly criticizing is bad.
Allow your son to be weak and emotional sometimes.
Don't forget the importance of parental love and affection for a child.
