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.

C. Lynn Williams

A parenting coach, a teacher and a writer, C. Lynn Williams holds a Masters in Business Administration from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois. She lectures on parenting in educational and business settings, and she is passionate about teaching mothers, fathers, and adolescents to construct wonderful relationships. She is a wife and mother of four grownup children. She has actually authored three books on parenting: one on how parents can maintain their peace of mind while raising adolescents, one on how to parent boys, and one on how to parent girls.

Creating a Positive, Respectful, and Loving Relationship between Mothers and Sons

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."

During the interview, she talked about how parenting between mothers and fathers differed and emphasized how a male role model is essential to help young boys grow up. She pointed out that discipline from a mother's perspective is reinforced when they follow up on consequences if the task is not done. By contrast, father's tended to have an easier time enforcing orders since boys responded better to direct orders rather than explanations.

She cautioned about how befriending children is detrimental to effective parenting. A parent needed to select between their parental duties and playing the the part of a close friend. Providing things for children did not necessarily make them more obedient.

She compared the connection between dads and boys and moms and daughters, and talked about how it was simpler for fathers to connect to boys and moms to associate with girls because they were familiar with how to connect to the thought patterns of the same sex.

The mothers and sons interview provided many parenting tips, like learning love languages, being readily available, creating boundaries, and improving interaction. Williams also discussed the value of parenting based on the age of the child, the challenge of raising millennial youngsters, the value of keeping family dinner traditions, and some efficient means of combating the influence of any kind of unfavorable peer groups.
