A Good Father Builds Bridges For Conversations, Not Walls
A good father leads his child in the dark, gives him his hand to hold him when it is necessary; wipes the tears from his face or cries with him to share pain. The role of a good father is to show his child the good and bad in life; To share dreams, to nourish it, to protect it and to give it all of your love.
If you are tenderly connected to your child, if you love and support each other, then we congratulate you. That means that you are a good father !
A bridge to the child’s heart
A child’s heart doesn’t take much to beat faster. It is very easy to conquer and huge! Building a bridge to the child’s heart is one of the greatest and simplest architectural works. You just need: patience and love.
Children need role models and teachers who are patient. In addition, not every child learns equally quickly. What is easy for some is difficult for others. This is why a good father needs a lot of patience to keep showing his child certain things.
Tying your shoelaces, eating nicely with cutlery, learning the colors or the one-time-one, doing your hair, going to the bathroom … all these are skills that must be acquired gradually. A child needs time for this and the father needs patience.
Give your child a lot of love
Every relationship with a child is based on love and tenderness. This helps the little earth citizen to develop independence, self-confidence and emotional intelligence over time. Giving love does not mean that the child becomes “weak”, on the contrary.
Hugs and kisses or a tender gesture are signs of how important your child is to you; you show him how much you love him and how happy you are to have him by your side. Your child understands this message!
Set limits
Boundaries and discipline are fundamental tools in education.
A good father builds bridges to his child, not walls
It is easy to win a child’s heart, but it is easy to lose too!
Many walls can separate father and child: a lack of trust, a lack of a basis for discussion, no tolerance, violence, a lack of love, distance …
These concrete walls destroy the bond that nature intended and place themselves between father and child, sometimes for a lifetime.
That’s why it’s important to be there and spend time together. Every day, your child waits for you to come home and have fun with them. Teach your child the most important things in life and show them how they can be successful themselves.
Praise it for its accomplishments and virtues, but also point out its faults. Never compare your child to others, it doesn’t matter whether they can do some things better or worse than other children.
Don’t ask more of him than it can. Trust him and speak to him if he is having trouble. If it is difficult for you, then it is doubly difficult for your child.
Devote time to your child. It knows that you are working to give it the most beautiful present and the most successful future. But it also knows that not only books, food, toys and medicine are necessary. It takes a lot of time by your side.
Know that a good father opens his heart and builds a good foundation to build the bridge to his child. Over time, he will achieve this and build an indestructible way to exchange ideas and have conversations. With this he can solve all doubts and questions of his child on a good basis of trust.
The bridge is a means of communication, knowledge, commitment, security and infinite love!
