    I wish my dad was like this, but instead he was the opposite. But I will be the best father to my children than he ever was. Great speech!

    His approach to parenting is technically positive psychology in a snowball scheme. Indeed a life-changig, game-changing and world-changing concept. Just Imagine the compound impact regarding the grandchildren and so on...

    Wow thank you!! Challenge accepted!
    Some times common sense, especially when it comes to parenting is not common practice. And in the simplicity of a message you find a powerful seed that grows deep and Strong root and at the same time becomes the most Tall.
    1-have a visión, 2-be the example 3-focus on the person not the action 4-keep the line of communication open by projecting this message: I will listen I will take you seriously I will respond.

    As a parent, we can give what we have and what we don't have, is something we need to work on to learn it with our children. Else others will teach them for sure 😜

    Daughters may have their father's heart. But, the sons have that special bond with their grandfathers.

      @martinshuudeni5247 3 года назад

      Great question, a great father is measured by the standards of who is the source of Fatherhood. The creator of heaven and earth
