Bringing up boys
I am curious as to how folks on here raise their boys concerning the balance between fighting back/self defense, or turning the other cheek. Primarily in the teenage years I suppose. Lets say some kid at school or after church service punches your son in the stomach or "smites him on the right cheek", do you encourage your son to break his nose, just turn the other cheek, or maybe something else? I'm sure that what it is about has everything to do with a response... So what do you tell your boy?
