Keep in mind that the role of a father is very important to grow children until he grew up. In this day and age both the father and mother have the same role in monitoring the growth and development of children to be optimal. There is no separation that says that the father is only the only one who makes a living, while for the child is the sole responsibility of a mother. If that view is still applied, then a child will lose the figure of the father figure.
Why is that? Because the role of a father in a child's life is very meaningful, especially to build emotional intelligence, improve the ability to communicate, and to motivate children in the future. If a child does not perceive the role of a father then he or she will find it difficult to adapt either in school, social environment or in other changes. The result of the reset also shows that a child without a father's role :
- As many as 63% of children will experience psychological problems such as: feeling anxious, moods that are easy to change, phobia, and also depression.
- A total of 56% more have below average catchability.
- As many as 43% of children are very aggressive towards parents.
The form of attention that should be given from the father despite busy work. Being a father is not an easy matter, because he has a very heavy responsibility that is to support the family. Apart from that he also has a very important role in educating his children, despite being busy outside the home. Then what kind of attention should be given to the child on the sidelines of his busy life? The following is a form of attention that must be applied by a father to his children.
1. Try to always take time for the child.
In one day at least the father must have time 15 to 30 minutes to do something with family. In that moment father can ask the children about the activities of today and invite him to play.
Thus, the child will feel cared for and the way has meaning for the child's development. A positive father will have a positive impact on his or her growth.
2. Always try to express love to children.
Try to take a moment to pay attention to the child, by asking about what activities in school, how to learn, how his friends. Such a way can improve the academic ability of children. Therefore, no matter how busy a father can be, he should take time for the baby because no matter how busy a father's father needs attention, affection, and also the full support of a father.
In addition to fantasy speech, the father can also give attention in the form of dear caresses, warm hugs, and appreciation in the form of praise to the child when he reached something or when he was able to do things that show the development. In addition to words, hugs, the warm touch of a father is also very important for the child. For example, father can carry him while with him.
3. Always try to eat together at home with children.
As much as possible father should spend his time to always be able to eat together or pray together. If the night can not, then it can be breakfast time. Because then the child can feel the warmth and close closeness between family members. In addition, these moments can be used as an arena for mutual chat between family members about their respective activities on that day.
4. Align between the busyness with the attention of the child.
In addition to having to harmonize between busy with the attention of children, the father must also be very clever in maintaining cohesion in front of children. Mother in this case must also participate support for growth and development.
5. Enjoying the holidays with children.
Try when father off work always together accompany children in play. That way the child will feel comfortable and close with his mother.
