Family Relations Week 11

Why Fathers Are Important?

I believe that fathers should be part of the child’s life, because it will help the child have a good relationship with his or hers’ father. A father should always be there for the child no matter what. A father has the responsibility to love and care for his children. In The Family: A Proclamation to the World says, “Fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for the families.” A father can be an example and care for his children by knowing what the kids are up to at school, what they are doing with their friends, and know who your child as an individual. If a father continues to do that, he will understand the importance on being a good father and grow his relationship with his children through life.

My relationship with my dad is super positive and we are very close. The reason why our relationship is stronger is because he has always been there for me. My dad has taught me how to become a better person throughout my life. I can always go to my dad and talk to him about situations that I am going through and he always will offer positive advice. When I listen to his advice, I can solve my situations and move on through life. My dad is someone who can be kind, loving, and patience. My dad’s role in the family is the peacemaker and is great at solving problems easily. I always look up to my dad and he is a great example in my life. The more I learn from my dad, the more I become who I am today. Thanks dad for being there for me and loving me no matter what.
