Positive Role Models

It's important for your son to see men who treat women well. This means, helping the women in the house with household tasks, doing the dishes, complimenting, laughing together, and even appropriate disagreements are healthy in front of children.

If your son does not have a healthy role model as a father, find another man (uncle, grandfather, neighbor, etc.) that will show him these things and then help him understand the importance of treating others with respect.

Your son will soon mimic the male role models in his life.

It's important to teach him to...

Respect women's ideas and thoughts and they should respect his in return.
Respect women's giving nature by showing appreciation and verbally showing gratitude.
Respect women's bodies by appreciating their natural beauty without enhancements. It's also important to point out the desensitizing nature of someone's perspective when they view pornography. This tends to warp the man's perspective of reality and intimacy and open doors of insecurity, feeling under-appreciated, and creates an intangible comparison for women.

That's enough for now on that topic...more will come later! :)
