Being a father or mother is an immense responsibility that requires an equally considerable commitment from both parties.
If the father’s participation in the training and care of the child varies with times, environments and situations, the fact remains that this role is far from being reduced to what some may attribute to him, in the occurrence that of simple parent or auxiliary of the mother in her mission of education and in the tasks of daily life.
The role of a dad is also fascinating, with a host of aspects just as essential as each other, which form a whole and make a man an extraordinary dad.
A dad is not there just to “support” his partner in raising their children. He is not there only to help them materially, nor to exercise hierarchy. The father’s role is also to worry daily about the health, training, well-being and education of his children.
How to be a good dad
Be a good husband. Before you think about how you care for your children, remember that a good dad is first and foremost a good husband.
Leave your house without hesitation. Having a small child in no way prevents you from doing the things you used to do before the baby came. Travel, visits to restaurants, family excursions are not excluded.
Your wife really needs a little time for herself. Motherhood is not an easy thing, it is exhausting and requires a lot of time. So don’t limit yourself to simple help, but also take active care of children, from the first day of their birth.
So, not only will your wife be able to take care of herself and her own well-being, but you will strengthen the daddy-little bond and spend quality time with them.
Be tender, put yourself in their place, time flies, make the most of every moment.
A healthy father-child relationship is essential to their healthy development and psychological stability. Love your little ones, accompany them, listen to them, discuss together, exchange points of view, in a word, be there for them.
