Love Family
Parents are the first and most important educators for their children. There are many articles that talk about the importance of a mother. But not too much to review how important the father role for his son.
Do not mean to marginalize the role of mother, but this article is made to remind us of the important roles of a father to the child that we need to absorb.
Dad usually does not talk more than a mother. But once a father speaks, to his son, the father has his own power to bewitch the child to listen carefully. Or another example, dad does tend to be rarely angry. But once the father gets angry, the kids will usually feel more guilty. What does it mean? Father taught us that words are expensive. Father taught us about authority in speech. Well teach us to think before talking
Dad taught us to control our emotions.
Honestly, who more often scolded you? Many must say "mother". When a child makes a mistake, it is rare for a father to scold his child by shouting. A father usually, and should, have more patience with a child. But the father also does not ignore. Dad tends to face the mischief of his son in a calmer, but wearing way. Because of the principle of a father, what matters is not his anger, but how the message of kindness comes to the child. From here we come to understand, that the father teaches us to be patient and able to control emotions.
Dad taught us about the competition
Children since the age of 4 will begin to be interested in competing with their parents. Starting from a simple competition like running to the door of the house, race to smoothing toys, guessing colors and so forth. For this activity, the child will prefer to play with his father. What a father does when he is playing with his son is to let the child win as much as possible at the beginning. But after that start stealing the victory from the child slowly. This will make the child understand the importance of a struggle. Where did it come from? Yep, dad. Children who since childhood understand the importance of struggling to get something, will later grow into a tough child! This is expressed by a psychologist from Columbia University named Justin Richardson, M.D.
Listen to the opinions of others
A father usually with a less talk, will give the other person a chance to say what he or she wants to say. From here, a father will listen first what the person is talking about, then digest it well. Only then gave a good response. From this, a father teaches us to try to hold back the ego and better understand the feelings of others. One more, my father teaches us to be a good listener.
There is no word of surrender for us, son!
Being a father is not easy. Father is fully responsible for a household. Dad has an obligation to ensure that all members of his family can eat properly, get good sleep, good health and ensure their children get a good education. There must have been a time when a father kept working despite his illness. Or challenge the heavy rain with an old motorcycle and his little raincoat. After work any father took the time to serve the child's request to play. What does it mean? Father is a staunch warrior. Dad taught us not to give up easily.
Dad encourages us to be strong children
A mother usually has greater concern for her child. For example when a child asks to learn to ride a motorcycle first. Or ask permission to climb the mountain. Or when the child is about to go far the first time. Mother must be very anxious about her child. Unlike the father. Dad will try to deal with it as quietly as possible, and let us do new things that are challenging. Not because father does not care, but because father wants his son to grow up to be a strong man! As strong as a father who always gave his shoulder to hold us since childhood when we fell.
