Once a month my 6 year old son takes me out on a dinner date. He opens
doors for me, pulls out my char, 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 phone)
and sit and talk to each other about out days, things we want to do, etc. I'm teaching him
proper table manners and that its 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 ti. 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 yong 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 extrememly
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 niec to know my son won't be one of them.
