@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil Interestingly, I may have found an answer.

"It’s very difficult for a mother to discipline an angry teenage son" (psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-in…).

@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil "The boy internalizes the father’s strength and it becomes his own. He takes pride in containing his anger — and in his own developing masculinity. This is a healthy outcome. It’s just tough to pull off as a single mom" (psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-in…).

@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil Consider "Physical and Relational Aggression in Early Adolescence: Associations with Narcissism, Temperament, and Social Goals" by Tiina Ojanen, Danielle Findley, and Sarah Fuller published in volume 38 of _Aggressive Behavior_ (labs.cas.usf.edu/social-develop…).

@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil "[P]hysical and relational aggression were considerably correlated and this association was stronger for boys than girls…, suggesting that …boys are more likely than girls to display both forms of aggression girls are more likely to favor one form over the other" (supra,p.104).

@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil "[N]arcissism was associated with physical aggression via dominance goals for boys and with relational aggression via dominance goals for both genders" (labs.cas.usf.edu/social-develop…, p. 104).

@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil Then consider "Family Predictors of Continuity and Change in Social and Physical Aggression from Ages 9–18" by
Samuel E. Ehrenreich, Kurt J. Beron, Dawn Y. Brinkley, and Marion K. Underwood published in 2014 in volume 40 of _Aggressive Behavior_ (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…).

@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil "Following high trajectories of both social and physical aggression was predicted by coming from a single-parent household, however being male was predictive of membership on the high physical aggression trajectory…" (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…, pp. 14–15),

@StoneyGuardian @hollowlegs @threadreaderapp @HallAnderson14 @Pegster69 @EoinPoil @threadreaderapp, please unroll.
