The thing that stood out to me (from the comments above) is the parents were divorced and he lived with his mom.
I don’t know about some of the other parents of little boys here, but I can see why some “moms” can have a tough time with rough boys and think dads don’t take the crap from little boys as much as moms (again, there ARE ALWAYS SOME MOMS WHO ARE TOUGHER TOO)…
since they were little boys themselves once (the dads).
Online articles are conflicting on both sides, but I don’t think many people will say raising a boy in a 1 parent household is better than 2 parents…
I don’t think it’s the parent’s fault this happened, but the environment just isn’t ideal and sounds like he had issues with no where to turn…I don’t doubt more and more mental issues arising from the poor economy.
