Part 1 Celebrating Fatherhood 10 Ways To Be A Better Father

Posted By: William Jackson on June 05, 2016 Part 1 Celebrating Fatherhood 10 Ways To Be A Better Father Taking a few kids to the store to buy stuff for their fathers I listen to the kids talk about their fathers. Easily sharing information about their father, daddy, dad, stepdad and the nicknames they provide. I hear the pride in their voices as they share true and seemingly exalted stories of events and happenings they participated and witnessed in their relationships with their dad. Their smiles are wide their eyes bright and their body actions are animated. As a teacher of over 20 years I have seen kids share the accomplishments of their dads, the struggles of dads going through unemployment, sickness, death and incarceration. Fathers need to understand that their actions and even inaction has an affect on their children and families. There are things that every father needs to know and should modify their behaviors when helping to raise their children whether in the home or not. The actions of fathers have serious affects on their children. The relationships of fathers and their children have life long affects on both even if fathers refuse to admit it. A fathers words and actions carry tremendous weight throughout the life a child and shape the relationship behaviors of children into adulthood. Girls need fathers to show them what expectations to have on how they should be treated and respected. What they morally and ethically should expect from boys and men as they mature and why girls and women should have their own and not have to depend on "a man" to give them thinks to make them feel important. Boys need their fathers to show how and why to respect women, why their education beyond sports and entertainment is important and their responsibilities as leaders and helpers in relationships. Boys need fathers to show that everyone in society will not be on their side and they will be judged by their color, culture and economics. Importantly how to deal with these issues. They will have people in society that have negativity of them because of color, culture, economics and education. As a elementary teacher I see how students behaviors and actions change with the interactions of fathers when fathers are involved or not. Fathers if in the military how the whole family structure is dramatically changed with fathers on deployment, when fathers leave the home and divorce is threatened or inevitable. The relationships that are dynamically bonded by genetics and DNA. Posting on Wednesday: Part 2 10 Ways To Be A Better Dad I hope are helpful to the development of young dads that need help and guidance to be the best dad they can be for their children and families. #MilitaryFathers #Dads #Fathers #FathersofColorandCulture #StepFathers #Daddy #BlackFathers #Daddie #FamilyMan If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
