Title should have been «Mommy’s Little Psycho» — Very Unpleasant

Saw this LMN movie recently and was actually shocked at the amount of violence and inhumanity that was portrayed. Note:

1. Sadistic older brother brutally tormenting the younger one.

2. Tormented younger brother letting the older brother die in swimming pool.

3. Negligent (actually disgusting and sadistic) mother tormenting surviving son.

4. Kindly neighbor disgustingly killed by mother, and then having the son help cover it up.

5. Mother’s creepy boyfriend wanting to spank the son’s bare bottom. WHAT?

6. Surviving son killing the creepy boyfriend.

7. Mother making son help dumping creepy boyfriend’s body.

This is a LMN movie?

psychologist

Being a mother of a boy is very interesting. You will learn so much about the psychology of the opposite sex, you will have such an experience that it will be a real discovery. You will see the world with completely different eyes, learn things you never knew, and even do things you have never done before. For example, if in your childhood you turned away and ran away when you saw a worm, now you will have a great opportunity to consider invertebrates in all details. (If you don’t want to, you still have to — they will bring it to you on a stick at the most unexpected moment.) Have you ever wondered why the doll opens and closes its eyes? Now you will see the structure of the puppet brain with your own eyes — the boy will be tormented by the question “why” until he disassembles his head to the last hair.

And being a boy’s mom is a lot of fun. Boys laugh more, like to joke and fool around. It won’t be boring — that’s for sure! On the other hand, being a mom of a boy is harder. Our own experience, on which we often rely, will not always help. “I know why he does this, I was a child too,” you think. But you were a child of a girl, which is not the same as being a child of a boy. Boys are completely different.

How they work

The pace of development, psycho-physiological characteristics, behavior of boys differ in many respects from those of girls. And from birth. For example, even baby boys are not very fond of talking. Girls quickly react to their mother’s voice, make a lot of sounds, actively «walk» and, before crying, will attract the attention of adults in other speech ways. And the boys will look at their mother very carefully, follow her with their eyes, move their arms and legs, but silently. And it can be more difficult to calm a boy with words. Songs, cheerful hooting or, conversely, a quiet whisper — boys react to any intonation much weaker than girls. They do, however, take better physical contact.

It is easier to calm a very small boy if you take him in your arms, gently shake him, shake him. Little girls love to look at pictures of people’s faces, and for boys this can even cause discontent. Boys adapt worse to new conditions and love to be surrounded by the same people, the same things. This feature appears in the first year of life, but persists later. Going to kindergarten, moving, new people in the family — all this can be very stressful for boys. They always need a longer period to get used to new conditions. But they experience a feeling of fear, in comparison with girls, to a lesser extent.

Boys don’t have the ability to assess situations as quickly, so they don’t always even notice things that might cause fear. In addition, they do not have such acute hearing and a greater tolerance for noise. Little boys demonstrate fearlessness, for example, in front of a thunderstorm or the sound of an airplane taking off. Boys are highly active. Almost from birth, they like extreme entertainment like tossing into the air or driving fast. Restrictions in such activities and in noisy games (which boys also respect very much) usually act overwhelmingly, and do not counterbalance at all.

If we talk about development in general, it goes unevenly. Periods of rapid growth, weight gain alternate with periods when no changes are visible at all. The same is observed in psychological development. The boy may not speak for a long time, he will not utter even two words, while his peers are already communicating with might and main in whole phrases, and then they will suddenly and immediately speak. Boys generally have more developmental disabilities. Deviations not in the sense of «worse», but in the sense of discrepancies with some existing norm. If you read that at a certain age a child should have such and such skills, this does not mean that your child will have them specifically.

The development of all children in general (both boys and girls) may differ in originality, but this applies to boys to a greater extent. Such is their mission. It is on men that nature works out all the “novelties” of evolution in order to find something more positive and progressive. The spread of congenital traits in males is much greater than in females, they have more beneficial and harmful deviations. Boys are born less mature, and with age, this difference will increase even more. By school age, she will reach almost a year, and by the period of puberty — two years. This applies not only to psychophysiological maturity, but also to social maturity. Boys remain children longer — with immediate reactions, interests, ways of communicating. All this must be taken into account in the process of education, because it is impossible to change.

Who will educate?

In many traditional cultures, little boys are brought up in two stages. First, women are engaged in them — mother, grandmother and closest relatives. Then, at the age of six or seven, there is a transfer of rights and duties to the father. Now only he decides all educational issues, and women should not interfere or contradict. From the point of view of a European mother (yes, probably, any other mother who does not belong to traditional cultures), this custom is unfair. It turns out that the woman who gave birth to a boy knows right away that her direct participation in the life of the child will be short-lived — and brings him up with the knowledge that they are about to be taken away. In relation to my mother, this is even cruel. But in relation to the boy himself, it is actually fair — given his age-related needs and developmental characteristics. And it is precisely such a scheme of education (in general terms, in the sense of parental influence) that should be recognized as correct.

Early childhood is a period of strong attachment to mother. Boys, even more than girls, need direct mother’s presence, they endure separation harder. But as soon as the boy turns six years old, the situation changes. Now the object of affection is the father. The boy appreciates playing with him, cherishes his participation in his life. A six-year-old boy feels his belonging to the male world and, thanks to his father, behaves confidently in it.

Moms are sometimes offended, and they unconsciously try to regain their former position. “Well, what good can you learn from a football match? Declension of obscene words? No, I’d rather take a walk with him”, “What kind of fishing are you going for? Learn to fold your socks first.» Although disagreements about raising a boy usually begin earlier — even during his attachment to his mother.

“Well, what is it? — says dad contemptuously, seeing how mom wipes her son’s tears with a handkerchief. You’re a man, you shouldn’t cry. And even more so, you should not blow your nose in a handkerchief with a rose.

The son is crying even louder — now also from resentment, and the mother hugs him even tighter.

«He’s going to be a sissy,» dad warns.

“Maybe our child is special, not like everyone else, and he needs more sensitivity and gentleness,” says the mother, in full confidence that men should not be allowed to be brought up at all.

“No, you just spoiled him, and now he will be a slob and a crybaby all his life,” dad answers, regretting that he was not allowed to raise a real man.

Actually everything has its time. Men are not born, but made. And not immediately, but gradually, and in the life of every real man there should be a period when he can cry, complain to his mother and wipe his tears with a handkerchief with roses. The boy has the right (and even should be) a sissy — from birth and almost to school. During this time, he will receive everything that a mother can give: boundless love, tenderness, confidence in his own worth. But then, under the guidance of dad, he will learn what a real man should be able to do. Of course, these periods do not have a clear boundary. And it is not at all necessary on the sixth birthday to solemnly hand over the child to the father with the words: “Well, now you bring up” (although this is exactly what happens among traditional peoples).

The presence of both parents is very important for a child from birth, and there is no period when one of the parents can withdraw from participation in the life of a child (even a boy, even a girl) in general — so that it is painless. We can only talk about the predominant influence of one of the parents and that the other at this time does not interfere, but helps.

Mom, how are you?

What is required of mother at this time? First and foremost, she should be happy. The advice sounds strange, but it’s true. Boys are attached to their mother from the first days, they are more sensitive to her condition. A baby can also be depressed if his mother is experiencing postpartum depression. Boys who have experienced a mood disorder in their mother are also prone to low mood in adulthood. They seem to capture the feeling of melancholy, sadness, and keep it for life. A happy mother, satisfied with her life, is an indispensable condition for a positive attitude towards the life of a child and the best model for raising a boy. After all, right now, at an early age, he has an idea of ​​\u200b\u200bwomen and men in general, preferences are formed — the basis of future family life.

The mother, who believes that family life is hard labor for a woman, makes the boy feel guilty. In the future family life, he will certainly be a caring and attentive family man, but he is unlikely to be truly happy. Because being guided in choosing a partner will be a feeling of guilt. Secondly, mom should always be there. Moreover, the emotional closeness and availability of a mother is much more important than her formal presence, and you can be a good mother even if you work full time. However, it is better if you yourself take care of the upbringing in the first year of life and do not send the boy to kindergarten until the age of three.

A mother should also be soft, affectionate and feminine. Moms raising boys often think that they should try to be stricter with them. The same is required of them by those around them, especially if the mother is raising her son alone. In fact, it is the severity and rigidity in early childhood that later turn into behavioral disorders and difficulties in relations with parents. Most women who complain about adult sons because they do not show warm feelings and are very formal in communication are just supporters of harsh parenting measures.

Paternal period

What should mother do at this time? Uphold the authority of the father. If you ask a child: “Who should be the head of the family?”, he will think. But not because he doesn’t know, he just decides how to say it so as not to offend anyone. Usually children say this: «Mom and dad in the family should be equal, but dad is a little more important, because he is stronger.»

The older the boy gets, the greater his desire to break away from maternal care. And this is a completely natural and correct course of things. Sad as it may seem, boys must move away from their mothers and keep a relationship with them at a distance.

The need for strong authority is innate. The ethologist Konrad Lorenz argued that in human society, as among animals, there is an instinct for the pack. And the “leader”, the one who is stronger and more reasonable can become the main one. No, even the most loving and tender mother, can provide such a need: women are too emotional to take on the role of leaders. And they, too, must obey and respect the one who is in charge. Of course, it is better if there is mutual respect between the parents and the dominance of the pope does not mean complete subordination of the rest of the family members. But even a situation where the father is overly authoritarian (compared to a soft mother) is better for a boy than, on the contrary, a soft dad and an overbearing mother.

Gradually reduce your involvement in your son’s life. The boy still needs communication with his mother, but not in all areas. Mom needs to reduce control in terms of the choice of activities, friendships. Too much mother’s influence does not allow the boy to develop, it has a bad effect on the formation of his character.
