Super Dads Have A Plan
Wayne Parker writing about Managing expectations of modern
fathers says: So many dads just move from day to day trying to work
through what the day brings. But Super Dads create a fathering plan that
allows them to focus on that which is most important.
With a demanding professional schedule, Parker says: if he didn't plan
family vacations about a year ahead, the family would never have one.
For him: Planning involves examining values, setting meaningful family
goals and then acting on those goals with a calendar in hand.
Part of those fathering plans must be making time to teach. According to
Parker, Fathers need to understand that one of their most important
missions is to help their children learn timeless values.
Dads need to teach the value of personal responsibility, of work, of
family commitment, of honesty, of faith, and of service. Children need
to learn the hallmarks of a happy life, and fathers play an important
role there.
If you haven’t got one already, how about creating a fathering plan that
allows you to focus on that which is most important.
