He’s my dad and that’s the way he is…
Obviously, every family is different and in some families moms are playful and dads are emotional. But what all dads have in common is being different from their wife… and that’s a good thing. Each parent plays a role and your children will get to know who can help when they are sad and which one of you will agree to play hide and seek.
These differences make your family whole and show your children different points of view. So, next time you go out on your own, don’t tell the father of your child what to do. Don’t draw lists and don’t give orders as if the house were in danger without you. If your children are in danger tonight, it will be because evil monsters are trying to steal their plate but daddy will protect them. Don’t worry!
