While almost any man can father a child, there is so much more to the important role of being a dad in a child’s life.
Children desperately need fatherly role models. Filling this emptiness in our communities will remedy many of the ails kids face in the current society.
Here are four key things fathers need to do:
The emotional well-being of their children
The father is the one who is supposed to speak what they see in their children.
Role Model
Fathers should be there at all times to bring out the identity of their children and give them a purpose of what they should be in life. Children should have that person in their life to measure up to.
Influence the kids relationships
A Father is supposed to pay attention to his children. The Father’s wound comes when they ignore their children.
Security
Fathers give assignments, provide a sense of security, give affirmation and identity.
Fathers should have that heart to admit their weaknesses and apologise to their families when they go wrong. It takes strength fathers to say am sorry.
