[Solved] Sons prefer there mothers

I think the father/daughter and mother/son bond is different to father/son and mother/daughter. I'm not saying better or worse, just different. I also think it changes with age and there will be things that you can do with your son that your wife doesn't. Personally, I'd stick to being laid back, and not worry about it. As long as you are getting quality time with your son, that's what counts for all of you.

I've got a lad of 20 .amd three girls 19 6amd 3. And a ten year old girl from the ex.
The older girls are daddy's girls but when younger they were more attached to mummy around age of 6 I notice them becoming more closer to me even moreover so when outdoors like they link arms or hold my hand tightly, my six year old one is starting to go through it now, she's losing her teeth looks funny like kids do. Iv thought it's a feeling of being secure and protected cos that age they start understanding and might feel insecure about teeth for example and not looking pretty .. Not going deep into emotions etc so teeth is being uses as a example.
Son was closer to mum up until around 9, then he became closer to me enjoying rough play cars building work so being a lad, got to 18 so a young man and he went back to being closer to mum his protective instinct was visible. By 19 became challenging towards me with things like he's stronger amd pushing his luck... So we joined the gym together and would box and wrestle at gone.. His stamina is way better than mine lol better driver, bought two helmets and went on a few track days, we bought a car and started building it as a dedicated track car been sitting catching dust since he left lol he'd think he knew the business better than me... Hes worked in the family business since he left school, so I left him to it for over a month and did completely remodelled my kitchen, lost a lot of work due to him thinking he knew best. He then left cos I apparently dropped him in it lol I said see its not how you think it is, business isn't easy you've still got a lot to learn. So he left and he'll get better job, he said he's got a good job but told mum not to tell me were lol she told me.. Part time amazon. He's always driven performance cars cos he's a car nut like me. He couldn't afford to run his audi s3 so I gave him a vauxhall insignia to run he blew the engine so he's been on foot for awhile now but.... He's coming back to the garage on Monday once all kids go back to school lol can't wait I'll pinch his cheek lovingly and he'll go all defensive and push me away lol

This is an interesting response thank you very much it's the classic 2 peas in a pod the son wants to emulate the father and doesn't want to let him down,he goes to his mother for "comfort" shhh dont tell dad my new job is pants lol it seems he looks upto you alot but can't show his softer side or speak about delicate topics with you as it's seen as weak maybe?

From age 9 to 18 he was glued to me, two peas in a pod as you said. It's like certain ages kids gravitate towards certain parents, depending on what they need at that time.
Like now my elder daughter is dadys girl but I'm sure when she get a boyfriend she'll gravitate towards being mummy's girl more even more so if she got pregnant.
And my son who is now mummy's boy will gravitate towards me when he gets a long term girlfriend.
My daughter with the ex is now ten, she's not got her mother now. So I have to be a mother figure kinda thing in the best way possible a man can be, so does my wife, my elder daughter, her aunty and other females in our family to be there and give her as much support as possible, so she knows when she needs a females support she's got us all.

Another thing I know is if there was a war between me and my wife. My daughter would be next to me. And my son would be next to his mum.
It's all random though depending on the child and parents bond or genes in my opinion.
I was daddy's boy .
As your son grows you'll see who he's bonded too.
My nephew has a bond with my wife. Cos my sister doesn't like her son cos he's so much like his dad her ex husband, He's ok with his dad who's a messed up loser but no real bond there yet he's the typical spoilt but close son with his step dad
Looking from the outside he's mummy's boy to my wife and a good son to his step dad. His real parents aren't really needed to give him what he needs to grow in life.
My niece on the other hand is daddy's girl real bond.
All very interesting seeing different people and now things are

I agree with actd. Things change with age and as long as you are having contact and quality time, I wouldn't worry.
