THE FATHERHOOD EXPERIMENT: A Newsletter for fathers
Boys get lost when...
They see truth as an attack. Change routines for a day and believe it ends bad habits.
They seek unhealthy influence because they didn't have proof that good one's win.
Actions up to now represent your DNA lineage, after a certain age you choose pain or suffering.
Fathers!
They need knowledge promoting critical thinking, better outlets and messaging. That doesn’t happen when you deny the history of your decisions.
Boys get lost when...
Therapy becomes violence and a main substance to lessen the pain their consuming. Some choose natural remedies. Some nurture separation from reality and family.
We all pick and choose who and what to listen to. The ignorant ones are loudest because they make trouble look cool.
Boys get lost when...
The preferred voice tells them to struggle hard, to father themselves and gain wisdom from a school ruled by law breakers. They know 2 wrongs don’t make it right but take the right to ruin a life and live on dead ends.
Armed with ammunition to change. But forcing a way through, wounding yourself to prove a point. Lessons don’t need to be written in blood or broken trust. After it spills ain’t the time to have a conversation. Pay back respect before you owe condolences.
Boys get lost & Fathers find them when...
Fighting to protect and preserve a dream that hasn’t come true yet. Belief turns to doubt because they haven’t achieved dream results. That starts a new beginning or end -depending on which truth you abandon-it forces you to hold onto something greater. A guide, A god, A Father, Yourself- A creator of beneficial thinking and behavior.
Benefits shouldn’t come back with negative interest. Do what means keeping your dreams, your life, and your dream life in your hands without surrendering prayer.
Fathers!
You are the arrow. Your love is the bow of sympathy, empathy compassion, and strength. Children are the target. Remember your similar struggle! Don’t allow those memories to haunt the spirit of the child staring back at you.
The son will test you. They don’t realize that’s an automatic failure. A Father must rule with respect, patience and a force that makes children see, understand, face and sometimes avoid the potential outcomes they welcome. The result will never be as easy as the thought.
It’s not always a good feeling. It reminds me of many ass whoopings I got as a child, so I grew up fighting to build a kind, gentle, peaceful identity. Thats why I would rather force my children to think than take a beating.
Fathers!
Be there to provide, protect, and love unconditionally- which is hard when children put us in hateful positions. Remind them that doesn't make us a threat.
To my Sons! To my Daughter! Our love is the solution even when you're the problem!
Dad Joke.
