I have thought of something else.

Your son loves and needs you.
He needs you more than he needs anyone else in the world.

I think, though, that he also needs to learn that men are not all to be feared, mistrusted and hated; that there are caring men, who protect women and children.

He probably needs this reassurance as much as you do, 428pm, as he is going to grow into a man, himself.

If he grows up thinking that men cannot be trusted, because so many of them are evil and cruel, then that could be very unhealthy for him, I think.
