[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tried everything I could -no video games, no violent movies or tv, no toy guns or swords or any violent type play at all. Encouraged empathy and peaceful problem solving and anger management (I’m a behavioral scientist). 
Society influences won and he is violent and has assaulted women. 
However, if I hadn’t raised him as I did, I know he’d be 100 x worse. 
I’ve long admired how boys are raised in other cultures, I think our culture in the USA is dangerous. 
We excuse and allow bad behavior and mistreatment of women. 
This is not keeping boys safe, this is pushing them to be violent. [/quote]
I want to thank you for posting. You are getting some nasty comments, but there are SO MANY men who assault women. Probably quite a few of the posters on this thread. They don't want to admit it, or want to blame the woman, but it comes down to the men. They can be raised by great parents, and still end up raping or assaulting someone. It serves no one to brush it under the rug. I'm sorry your son is a predator, it cant be easy to live with that. [/quote]

This poster was not a good parent.[/quote]
[b]You really think that every single male who commits a crime had some sort of awful childhood?[/b] Many had normal, caring parents. This isn't some sort of poverty problem you can ignore and think it will never happen to you. Men of all backgrounds commit crimes. [/quote]

Where did I say this? I said THIS POSTER was not a good parent.[/quote]
And you don't know that anon poster to know if they were a good parent or not. Quite an assumption on your part just because they were brave enough to post about their kid. [/quote]

She overcorrected and feminized her child. Her intentions were good, but come on. [/quote]
How is avoiding video games "feminizing"? And how does feminizing a child make them into a sexual offender?[/quote]

Someone already explained this.[/quote]
Ok sure. [/quote]
