In Praise of Dads' Role

Contrasting my previous post re: Ms. Baer's Father's Day "tribute", I found a nice story from Johanna Wilson at the Myrtle Beach Sun. Ms. Wilson knows the way to get more dads involved is not to scold them for their shortcomings, rather to praise them for what they do bring to a child's life.

I love the simple, yet powerful tips she adds at the end on how to be a super dad:

- Look beyond yourself.
- Listen and be patient.
- Don't be so serious.
- Bring the community into your home.

Dadinprogress, do you intend on adding an rss feed so people can add you to Bloglines? Just wondering.

I LOVE the simple, but powerful.
