Our scriptures teaches us everything and tell us how to take our own responsibility as a son. In Srimad Bhagwatam Canto 2 Chapter 7 it is mentioned when King Vena became unrighteous and started following the path which was against Vedic Scriptures.
Result all Brahmans became angry and cursed King Vena to take birth in very lower caste family with improper bodily features.
Long life, obedience, good reputation, righteousness, prospects of being promoted to higher planets, and blessings of great personalities are all vanquished simply by disobedience to a great soul. One should strictly try to follow in the footsteps of great souls.
Maharaja Pṛthu, the incarnation of God, descended by the prayer of the Brahmaṇas to rectify the disorders on earth. He produced all kinds of crops. But, at the same time, he performed the duty of a son who delivers his father from hellish conditions.
The word Putra means one who delivers from hell, called put. That is a worthy son.
So, here we can see a real duty of a real son is to deliver his family from fallen condition and to do so one must accept and follow Vedic Injuctions properly.
If we do not do so, the future generation will also follow the same and we will also suffer in future for not training our child, so it is our responsibility to understand the duty of a son and teach to young generation.
