Someone once called me a mommy’s boy.
That is correct. I am a mommy’s boy. I have always been close to my mother. My mother is a wonderful woman, and I can only wish that I could be like her. For that matter my daughter is daddy’s girl. She too is very close to me, and we enjoy a
wonderful relationship.
Since when did it become wrong for people to love their parents? Parents and children should love one another. If parents and children don’t love one another, something is wrong. There are many bad family situations. However family or parenting as such
is not the problem. Family and parenting can, and should, be done better.
So some people think that children raised in loving homes are spoiled and good for nothing. My daughter is competent at any number of things. I never had to be strict with my daughter. She has always been a good kid. I don’t even have to motivate her,
she motivates herself.
Is it spoiling the child to raise her with love? No it is not. It is in fact very strengthening to the child. The child develops a good self-image and has confidence in herself. The message she hears from her parents is, “You are good, you are lovable,
you are worthy of good things.” And that can go a long way to helping the child to have a good life.
So yes, I am a mommy’s boy, and I think that that is a good thing. A woman as good as my mother deserves to pass on her legacy. Parents and children should love one another, and more people need to be encouraged to do that. And raising a child with
love is a valid thing to do.
