“Once a month my 6 year old son takes me out on a dinner date. He opens doors for me, pulls out my chair, talks about his day & asks me how mine was, pays the bill with money he earned by doing chores, and even tips the waiter/waitress. By doing this I am teaching him how to treat a lady & how to take her on a proper date. How to show that he respects the woman he loves (right now that would be mommy). We put our phone and iPad away (except to take this photo) and sit and talk to each other about our days, things we want to do, etc. I’m teaching him proper table manners and that it’s rude to sit on your phone on a date with your mom or with anyone else. He learns the value of money and how to manage it. He learns how to do math as we add up what we want and make sure we have 15% of it to leave for a tip. Yes he is young but I believe this is something he should learn now. It’s never too early to teach your child how to properly respect others, especially women. As a woman who has been abused & treated like crap in the past, it’s extremely important to me that I teach my son how to show respect. Too many men these days have no idea how to treat women or how to take them on a nice date. It’s nice to know my son won’t be one of them.”
Are you inspired?
So very inspiredb awwwwww….. Charity begins at home and am sure that guy is gonna be the coolest dude any woman can wish for. Thanks to a great mum.
This is one of the best things a mum can give her son. Teach him how to treat a woman right. Nigerian mothers néed to learn how to teach their sons these things so that the next generation of men in this country would be way better than what we have now.
This is great, we all need to follow suit.
I’m very inspired. It’s important dat our son’s learn all these things early enough in life. I’m sure d coming generation will treat their women d right way if we all train our sons
She stole my idea about the dinner date 🙁 lol
Good one there mama. We all need to teach our kids to treat people with respect. I like your style about him paying for the bills with his own money. I think i’ll ” borrow” that idea…lol.
Wow, so inspired I will make sure I teach my son the value of a woman.
I am really investing on this. I watched my dad treat my mom like a Queen so am teaching my son how to treat a woman like a Queen.
This is just so on point
Great!
