We all know that Father's day doesn't get as much play as mother's day. We have to settle for the same gifts every year(ties, shirts etc.). But much of that is warranted, and is a reflection of the impact that we have on our children's lives as a whole. For the most part, we have been absent. Not only physically, but financially, and emotionally. It is commonplace to hear someone speak of growing up in a single parent environment, or hating their father for his neglect as a child.
The excuses are for the birds, and any man with a child is officially called out to do his part to raise that child responsibly. I am making a personal promise to hold any friend that I have with children, accountable to them. The fellas can wait. It you want to reclaim your position in the household, you must earn respect back from your family.
Your baby mam is tripping? So what? Once she sees a man acting responsibly and consistently doing what he is suppose to do, she will only make herself look stupid to hinder you from that. You have to demand the opportunity to be a father to your child. I can't imagine being kept from my son without a fight. No matter how much she dislikes me, she knows I will do anything for him and respects that. I won't go on a rant, but we need to get it together.
From today on, earn your right to celebrate Father's Day!!!!!!!!!!!!
