"Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord. Lift your hands toward Him for the life of your young children." Lamentations 2:19 from the Power of a Praying Parent by Stormy O'Martian.
Our objective as moms and dads is to transform our sons from "immature and flighty youngsters into honest, caring men
who will be respectful of women,
loyal and faithful in marriage,
keepers of commitments,
strong and decisive leaders,
good workers, and
men who are secure in their masculinity."
It's a tall order but one that can be achieved with wisdom and guidance from the Father.
Bringing Up Boys by James Dobson, p. 245
