I agree with you to a degree, but it should not be just the boys that are taught to how to treat a female right. What about the girls? I think they should be taught to treat men right as well. I taught both my kids, boy and girl how to treat the other sex with respect as well as other people. I taught them to treat other people the way they want to be treated. My son ended up not only treating my daughter and I like queens but all other females. He opened doors for women, and helped his sister and I with everything, all over was very polite. My daughter was the same way, she was very polite and helpful in every way.

So I think the little boy and girls should be taught from the being how to treat people with respect so as when they get a mate, they will know how to treat that mate right.

I would say yes, as long as you are going to teach the girls to treat the boys good. Teach them to treat each other like princes and princesses. They need to learn to be respectful, even when fighting (sibling rivalry will happen, but it can be done respectfully), not to throw or hit each other, to talk nice to each other, to help each other, love each other, be kind, etc. The earlier the better. They learn the most from their parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents examples, tho. If you try to teach them all of this, but the adults in their lives aren't doing the same to each other, then it won't do any good. They will be confused.

My parents didn't really do anything when my brother and I would beat each other up. But, I grew up and learned that I didn't want that in my life and am now with a guy that treats me like a queen! I had to go thru a couple years of guys not treating me well as a teen, then 20 years with an abusive husband (mentally and emotionally, not otherwise) to get here. Maybe if you can teach your kids to treat each other respectfully, etc, then they won't have to go thru all that I had to go thru to get to this point. By the way, my brother and his wife have, for over 20 years, beat each other up, cheat on each other, scream at each other, etc. My brother never really grew up and learned his lesson.

Boys don't have to treat their sister's like Queens, they need to treat them with respect and love and watch out for them and show them right from wrong. Sister's should do the same for their brothers.

Are you going to teach the girls to treat their brother like kings, so that when they get older, they would know? If your answer is yes, then yes we should teach our children how to treat each other like Kings and Queens.

It doesn't work. My boyfriend treats his sister like a princess, but not me, his girlfriend. He's seen his dad not be that great to his mum, and his sister's husband be not that great to her, so he thinks he doesn't have to treat his girlfriend like a queen, only his sister. The best idea is to teach all kids to have respect for everyone, not favour one particular person.

It is important to teach the boys to respect women from Day 1. It is also important to teach the girls to respect boys.

I have a son who is very bossy and domineering toward women (like his Dad). Since his Dad won't be the one to teach him how to respect women, I have to. I tell him he must never, ever, ever hit a woman under any circumstances. Walk away, leave the room, leave her before you hit her. No real man hits a woman. I also tell him if a girl/woman hits him, then she's not respecting him. Tell her you do not hit women & don't expect to be hit (since most girls don't get that message). If she continues, leave her and don't go back.

Mainly I teach all my kids about respecting everyone: themselves, their siblings, their friends, parents, neighbors, teachers, everyone. Set limits in a respectful way so you can have strong, healthy relationships.

Remember, you are the Queen, your daughter is the princess. Your sons are young princes.

Brothers and sisters are going to fight. There isn't really a way to teach them not it. It's all about sibling rivalry. You teach by example. So, if you want to show a boy how you'd want him to teach girls, you'd have to be the example.

teach your boys how to respect everyone.....you're daughters are going to grow up expecting to be treated like queens by everyone which will lead them to a big wake-up call.

The best example you can set for your boys is that their parents show love and respect for each other. If the husband treats his wife with love and respect - then your boys will learn by example.

Maybe not Queens, but certainly a princess! :)

THe best example boys will ever get, though is in seeing how
their fathers treat their mothers.
