Tonight I had the pleasure of watching my son play soccer. It was so nice to see all of the men standing on the side line cheering on their small ones. I noticed that every time a father yelled go!!!! followed by his child's name the child would glance over to the side with a smile in his or her eyes. Right in that moment you could tell that the child wanted to do more to evoke that type of response.
Ladies, just a quick word, no matter how little you may think of your child's father, never keep them apart. If you have a man that wants to be involved and is a decent person, let them have a relationship. The best thing you can ever do for your child is to allow a relationship with their father. Make sure that at all costs you do not speak ill of the father and you only promote their relationship. He may be a salty dog to you, but to your child that is daddy and everyone deserves one.
True...
ReplyDeleteI had to learn this the hard way. It's not about me and his relationship, I let them develop their own relationship
