Future Fathers FF

Family Time! Isn't just for Sunday's Christmas Or gatherings, they need to be something we incorporate into our everyday lives as much as we can because that's what I understand will help build a strong Family unit.

The Connection between Brothers and Sisters is something as parents we don't think about even as children we don't question it but we don't do our best to nourish it either and we should.

Learning vs Being A Dad! Has to be one of the most, I'm not quite sure which one would be, i suppose being a dad is hard enough without all the extra it comes with especially if we dont have a model to follow or is it the model you don't follow is better 

Do you Job! we go to work to get paid, and do! but expect our children to be good people without putting in the work, Dose it make sense ?

Taking a Back Seat! is not meant to be us as parents doing nothing but doing our best to guide our children by giving them the opportunity to explain themselves and if that means that we have to take a back seat by giving them time ( not too much ) then as parents we should at least be open to trying for our children.

Education with My guy ( Fingers! ) A discussion about education with one of my long time friends, ranging from ages 4 upwards into the work environment.

Reflection! Shouldn't be something we wit our whole lives to do it should be something we do in stages, and I've started and it feels good. some of us may not be able to move past the past but for our children's future it may be what's needed.

Passing On Information! Is as essential as giving someone help, ( at least i think so ) so how come were only just starting to do that in the 21st Century ? i would like ant and all fathers to reach out so we can have a convo as we all have valuable info for each other.

Missing Achievements! should not be something we do it can happen, it's how we as parents deal with what comes next!

Helping! should be like second nature to s but its almost like we don't see each other, but that has to stop and teaching our children is the best hope for breaking  that cycle and creating a whole new one!

Praise: Can be one of the most important things to help a child gain confidence but it can also give them inspiration to pursue great things and achieve brilliant things.

Coping with Problems! Stepping away from our children for just a second we have to evaluate our own mental and physical health, making sure we are in the best condition we can be to look after our children the best way we can, giving them the best we have to offer them.

Inspiration: Is something we all need in our lives and most of us get it in many forms, so why should our children be any different ? they're not! we need ton inspire them as much as anyone they watch or listen to, and we need to be able to take inspiration from them as they are the generation that comes next.

Music! Should be something we can all share and experience together but we dont, music is a n aextention of our emotions and should be seen as that not as a way for our young people to get rich quick and loose it even faster, we need to keep them listening to great music for their own development and nourishment as humans.

Cooking: Can be a doorway into lots of other experiments and flavors for you and your child/children, or just a simple way for you to connect with you child over a learning experience or doing something you love, and we all love food.

Choices & Upbringing: gives us a chance to look at the choices our children make and how informed they are in making them.

Conversations: Are the things we tend to avoid, sometimes even if our children want to talk we don't want to! but something I've found to help me immensely is talking to my boys about their days and giving them some of the information they desire when asking me questions, ( but I cant give them everything ) it also makes me want to talk to them just to see how they are doing. My Brothers it helps!

Peer Pressure: We know it can be a detrimental thing to our youngsters as it can put them in some very unsafe situations that can either lead them down a winding road of destruction, but we must show them it can also be a path to extremely great things in life, and following your instinct or intuition is one thing that will help us and then decide what is right for us.

Rules: I was always told were there to be followed, and this is the TRUTH! Speaking as an adult I now know the importance of rules and having them, Implementing them is another thing entirely, children like to bend and break the rules as natural enquirers' but its up to us to show them the importance and value of them.

Health and Hygiene!  Needs no introduction at all, we need to instill this in our children for their own self development and their social interactions.

Manners & Behavior  Is an episode close to me as I had a hard mum who made sure I showed my manners, and now I see why, they show a good upbringing, good character and cost nothing, our children deserve to show the world the manners they have in abundance but only if we give them the right tools to do so.

Our Elders: Are the ones who came before us and those who have the wisdom and experience to pass on, we are the one who have lessons to learn and in the future will be the ones passing on wisdom through our own experiences, and our Grand parents are the Elders in our lived who can give us incite into ourselves.

Support for your Child! Is a look at how we as parents support our child/children through the different stages in their lives that may and can arise, for some of us its a natural thing to give support and for some its a thing that has to be learnt. Never the less we strive to make their better and more fulfilled and fruitful than ours.

Indoor Events! Is a look at how we can improve the quality of enjoyment we have with our children indoors, not to be funny but a lot of us don't utilize our children's willingness to imagine their surroundings and how they interact with them, we can all do more to have a little fun while making it educational and exciting for us and them!

The Connection with your Son! Is my insight into how the connection between you and your son is detrimental to how the grow as men, form lasting relationships with their peers and loved ones and how you and they grow as people together.
