C. Lynn Williams, an author on parenting books, spoke to Lon Woodbury and Liz McGhee on Parent Choices for Struggling Teens on L.A. Talk Radio about the unique relationship between mothers and sons. She discussed how this relationship was quite different from a father and son relationship, as well as a mother and daughter relationship.
Parents Choices for Struggling Teens is hosted by Lon Woodbury, an Independent Educational Consultant who releases the well-known Woodbury Reports. He began working with struggling adolescents in 1984. Meanwhile, his co-host Liz McGhee is the Director of Admissions for Sandhill Development Center in New Mexico. She has over 19 years of clinical consulting experience with adolescents.
Guest Background
C. Lynn Williams is a parenting coach, an educator and an author who holds a Masters in Business Administration from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois. Besides teaching parenting skills in educational and corporate environments, she is passionate about empowering parents and teens to build fulfilling relationships. She is an author, wife and mother of four adult children. She has authored three books on parenting: one on how parents can keep their sanity while raising teens, one on raising sons, and one on raising daughters.
How Mothers and Sons Can Build a Positive, Respectful, and Loving Relationship
Williams did not really expect to write again about parenting after she finished, "Trying to Stay Sane While Raising Your Teenager." Nonetheless, during her educational work, she kept running into mothers and sons that did not get along and ended up researching and writing about their unique and special bond. The result was: "The Pampered Prince: Moms Develop a TERRIFIC Relationship with Your Son."
Williams talked about how parenting differed between mothers and fathers and stressed how a male role model is important to help young boys mature. She stressed that mothers have to create a sense of discipline by following through on consequences when their son rebelled and did not do chores or follow directions. By comparison, father's had a much easier time imposing orders since boys reacted much better to direct orders instead of explanations.
Williams also discussed how befriending children is counterproductive to effective parenting. A parent had to choose between the role of parent and the role of friend. Giving children things did not necessarily win them over and make them more obedient.
She reviewed the partnership between dads and boys and moms and daughters, and how it was simpler for fathers to relate to sons and mothers to associate with girls considering that they were familiar with how to relate with the same gender.
The interview on mothers and sons offered various tips, consisting of reviewing love languages, being readily available, discussing limits, and improving interactions. Williams also touched on the value of parenting styles changing according to a kid's age, the challenge of parenting millennial kids, the relevance of keeping family supper traditions, and some reliable means of counteracting the influence of a child's negative friends.
