Father’s Day is a special day dedicated to honoring the men who sacrificed so much to care for their children and families.

However, it is important to recognize that not every parent is perfect, and not everyone has the best role models to follow when it comes to parenting.

As women, we can support our men who are fathers and help them adjust to fatherhood.

Imagine if parents worked together how different our world could be.

So what can be done to parent well, even if you didn’t have a great role model?

The K.I.S.S. ~ Parent well!

First, understand that you do not have to be a perfect parent to make a positive impact on your children’s lives. Making an effort to support and love your children unconditionally is crucial in their development.

Spend quality time with them and show genuine interest in their lives. Listen to them when they talk and validate their feelings. Teach them to be respectful, honest, and responsible. These small actions will go a long way in developing a strong relationship with your child.

Secondly, it is always helpful to seek advice from other parents or experts who have been through similar situations. Joining a support group or attending parenting classes can be valuable in learning new skills and meeting other parents who can provide guidance and emotional support. Reading books or listening to podcasts from experienced parents and child psychologists can also be enlightening.

Furthermore, it’s important to recognize your strengths and weaknesses as a parent. It’s okay to admit when you’re unsure how to handle a situation or when you need to take a break. Seeking help or advice from a professional can be beneficial to everyone involved.

Being an incredible father or parent is not about being perfect but about putting forth an effort to nurture and guide your children. Seek support and advice when needed, accept your limitations, and always show love and understanding towards your children.

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers who are making an effort to support and care for their kids!

PRAYER: May God bless your thoughts, words, and actions as you parent your child. May you lead well with a captured heart and unconditional love.

“Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!“
