Mums of sons - where have we gone wrong?

It seems to me that there’s a crop of Mums who currently have a lot to answer for.

Who brought up Vernon Kay, for instance, to disrespect women to such a degree that he felt it was OK to sex text 5 women whilst a married man and father of two?
And what about Tiger Woods’ mother, or John Terry’s? What kind of messages did they impart to their sons about how to treat women, and wives in particular?
And think about Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross. What seemed to outrage most people about that sorry saga was the message left on Andrew Sach’s answer-phone. What outraged me, though, was that two grown men felt free to discuss publicly - on the radio! - a private sexual experience......with apparently no thought to what the woman involved would feel, and without allowing her any say in it.
It bothers me that the mothers of these men are likely to be from a generation of women who had to fight for their rights - for equal pay and equal opportunity. And yet they’ve bred a generation of men who not only have no notion of equality but instead treat their partners like chattels and objectify the rest.
This is a generalisation, I know, but I’d love to know what these mothers were up to. Surely it’s incumbent on women when bringing up sons to encourage them to treat women with respect and to do nothing that demeans them?

Tiger Woods Hiding Away

Tiger Woods is certainly not doing himself any favours by hiding away. It seems strange that a man who deserves to be brimful of self-confidence is demonstrating an inability to face up to the consequences of his actions.
Burying himself away, refusing to meet the police seem pretty obvious indicators of the fact that he has something to hide. But how bad can that be? What can he possibly be afraid of?
The trouble is that by shunning the police and the press, he’s only brought more attention to himself. The press and gossipy websites are now free to speculate....and they’re not holding back!
If only he’d had the courage to face the press and make light of whatever it was that happened, the attention could well have eased off. Instead, he finds himself the centre of a media storm.
I can only imagine that he’s not easily able to handle bad feelings. Presumably, he feels thoroughly ashamed and unable to accept the fact that he somehow brought the accident upon himself. And whereas some people might lash out and blame others in this situation, he’s taking the opposite tack – going into denial. But neither course of action is ultimately helpful...the best way to move on from any embarrassing episode is to face up to it, admit guilt, and deal with the consequences.
I’m sure there’s an appropriate golfing term for confronting difficult shots......perhaps some keen golfer could inform me?
