Anyone can be a father, but it takes a lifetime to become a father. Fathers play a role in every child's life that cannot be filled by others. This role can have a huge impact on a child and can help make him the person he becomes.
Fathers sometimes underestimate their role. Loving, actively involved fathers contribute to the well-being and development of their children, strengthen their self-esteem. For example, this can be done by helping them explore the world through games and books.
The real question to ask is, how can fathers be more involved with their children? First, they can pay special attention to each of their children as often as possible. During their time together, fathers can enjoy the company of their children without letting outside distractions get in the way. As a result, their children will feel noticed and special. There is no single formula for how this can be achieved. A father and child can play, talk, learn a skill or read together. The important thing is that they recognize each other and accept a common interest. Such activities encourage a sense of each being important to the other.
The presence of a caring father helps his child (boy or girl) become more confident and reach their full potential. By taking an active role from the moment your child is born, you help build a bond that will last for years to come.
Dads, like mothers, are pillars in the development of a child's emotional well-being. Children look to their fathers to set and enforce the rules. They also look to their father to provide a sense of security, both physically and emotionally. Children want to make their father proud, and an involved father promotes inner growth and strength. Studies have shown that fathers' being caring and supportive greatly affects the cognitive and social development of the child. It also instills a sense of general well-being and self-confidence.
Fortunately, more and more fathers are recognizing the positive impact they can have on their children's lives. Compared to previous years, fathers are now with their families They spend almost three times more time. While the time spent by families at home has increased especially during the COVID-19 crisis, the vast majority of fathers report that they have felt closer to their children since the pandemic began.
