Thanks to all who responded, Grant, Zackie, Rikard and David.
David your note intrigues me. Not only is trust a two way street, but
trust is earned. My son can tell me anything because he knows I will
never judge him and the advice I give him is based on experience,
considered thought and unconditional love. I couldn't and didn't talk
to my own Dad about the sort of things my kids talk to me about. I can
do it now because I'm where he was then.
As a boylover I work on gaining and maintaining the trust of the boys
in my life. I try to be consistent and focused on them and their
needs.
Are you talking about trusting the boys in your life? I agree this is
sometimes a challenge. I have dealt with boys who were lairs or would
steal from me. These things are not insurmountable. But the secret to
success is to never put yourself (or your boy) in a position where
your fate is in his hands. Is that what you were getting at?
