I don't and you shouldn't agree 100% with anyone. when I came across this video my Nick Freitas it comes damn close to agreeing 100% on this subject. Love how he talks about raising boys. Check it out and let me know thoughts.

'til next time!
I don’t just want my son to be “nice.” I want him to be dangerous. Not reckless, not cruel—dangerous. The kind of man who knows how to protect, provide, and stand tall when life throws punches. Because the world doesn’t care about your feelings. It respects strength, discipline, and men who can carry the weight when others fold.
Raising a dangerous man doesn’t mean teaching violence—it means teaching control. It’s about sharpening his instincts, hardening his resolve, and building a code he can live by. I want him to have the confidence that only comes from knowing he can handle himself and protect what matters.
A man who’s capable of violence but chooses peace? That’s a man people respect. That’s a man people follow. That’s who I’m raising.
Softness isn’t safety. Compliance isn’t strength. I’d rather raise a lion and teach him restraint than raise a sheep and pray he never meets a wolf.
So no, I’m not raising him to be palatable to the world. I’m raising him to be prepared—for the weight of responsibility, for danger, for leadership. Because one day, it won’t be me protecting him. It’ll be him protecting others.
