I can't begin to imagine hopping in to the deep, deep end the way you have. Sounds like you haven't lost your sense of humor, which is critical. Cliff, I remember when my older son started killing me at hoops, not that I was anything to write home about. But he had some actual moves! The basic spin left me flailing at air time and again!

But,Its alright for a boy to suck on the titty every once in a while. Their whole lives they are taught to be men ( not cry,not whine, not to show any type of emotion) that is why most of you are EMOTIONLESS!!!! However, when they become teenagers and decide to ACT like a man, everyone want to put them in their place and tell them they are children, no wonder they are dazed and confused. As a wife, mother, aunt and woman i am confused.Make up your mind which one are they boys or men. Maybe I don’t know how to raise a boy.

Reuben Muhammad Mon, 15 Jun 2009 19:37:36 +0000 http://www.danomi.com/?p=804#comment-386 Salaam (Peace)! Excellent Post...and I can definitely relate. I've been rearing 5 of my own boys for the last 7 years, and my two oldest are now 16 and 17...and they have some issues, themselves (smile). Helping young men to see the causal relationship(s) between their actions and the consequences, relative to their desires, can often be challenging, but it's worth every bit of effort if it elevates his willingness. May Allah (God) continue to Bless and Aid you in the Good you are striving to do! RM Salaam (Peace)!
