The relationship of a son towards both his parents is very complex. A son will likely feel a close bond with his mother, yet see his father as an adversary and competitor. When a son sees how his father interacts with his mother he will either attempt to model his father's behavior or reject his father's example of relationships with women. From the parents' point of view, having a son can be one of the greatest joys they will ever experience but also one of the greatest challenges. Balancing the need to offer freedom to your son while placing appropriate boundaries may be an area of contention.
Though Grandpa was a quiet man, he taught his lessons well.
He showed me ways to understand with stories I still tell.
The first time I had lost a game, he told me what to do.

To My Son,
I hope you know how much I love you so.
I might embarrass you from time to time
By giving lots of love and needless kisses,
You are NOT alone. Hold onto hope. Find peace in your heart. I lost 15 years and 3 weeks with my son. No contact, minimal updates. I was on a bad path, sent my son to his father (I wanted...
BEFORE you came, my little lad,
I used to think that I was good,
Some vicious habits, too, I had,
But wouldn't change them if I could.

A father sees his son nearing manhood.
What shall he tell that son?
"Life is hard; be steel; be a rock."
And this might stand him for the storms
I never want this to go unsaid,
So here in this poem is for it to be said.
There are no words to express how much you mean to me,
A son like you, I thought could never be.
I'll never forget the day I found out I was going to be a mommy. I was scared to death since I was only 16. I didn't know the first thing about being a mother. Then all that fear went away. I...

Oh, how the years go by.
Oh, how time can certainly fly.
From once just a thought in faraway dreams,
now into my arms and in my eyes gleam
My first born will be 22 in a couple of months. I thought for sure he would be home for a long time to be. I miss my son's face and laughter everyday. I get jealous when I hear someone...

I miss my son
who used to be
who cared about himself
and his family
I was a single mother of one, my son who is now 29 years old (30 in September). This will be the first birthday that he and I will not be together because up until two years ago my son was a...
You came to the world,
On a God blessed night.
Your limbs were all there,
Your heart beat just right.
Bullseyes and targets, marbles and darts.
Little green bugs and bicycle parts.
Frogs in their pockets, worms in their shirt.
A boy is a boy for all he is worth.

Little boys
Everyone said Boys are difficult.
They are alien creatures,
Difficult to manage
Nice. Written about boys. I wish I had boys because I grew up with girls and I have two girls.
