The relationship of a son towards both his parents is very complex. A son may feel a close bond with his mother, yet see his father as an adversary and competitor. When a son sees his father having a female relationship he will ultimately try to either model or reject his fathers example of relationships with woman. These are some of the underlying issues that go on. Having a son can be one of the greatest joys you will ever experience, but it is also a bit scary when you realize that you are his primary role model.
