Although I'm not sure, if I would, I might only think that because my sister was my moms favorite and I was my dads.
so i might be saying that because we were both males. Maybe your son would identify with you no matter what and hate and dislike his mom and you both can laugh at her and her crazy religion. But would you really want it that way?
I really don't want my son to see it as an us vs. them situation. I want him to understand that it's really more about personal exploration than it is about deciding whether it's mommy or daddy that's right.
