What is a TRUE Father to you?

My father taught me the value of hard work and being a good provider for the family. As a result, success is almost second nature.

On the opposite side, I was disowned and later removed from a rather large will even as his only living child. That stung at a level that’s hard to comprehend. I also got sued for leaving a family business. That sucked too even though I won the suit. He and my mother also refused to come to my first wedding because I married a Catholic. My wedding present was received by certified mail- my college loans with a note that I could take over the payments.

No father is perfect. But, the great thing about unfortunate things as you age, they end and you get to smile.

I do every day.

Still not a big fan of Father’s Day though tbh.

Not all daddies can claim to be Father. A father is one who lays a clear path to the future generation. Only a father has legacy. Also a father need not be a dad. A father is a leader who shields his family from the perils of life. And I know of many women who have performed as an excellent Father, but without recognition.

A Father is a hood that is genderless. While mother is for the physical well being of a child, Father is for the intellectual well being.

Yes I looked up to him and I heard a saying once, "anyone can be a father but to be a dad takes effort and caring" .
He was the best

My father was a very good role model! He was a hard worker, honest, faithful and kind! He taught me the value of good morals and hard work. When I was younger and my mother was mentally ill, he spent countless hours playing board games with me, watching movies and taking me along wherever he went. Sadly I lost him in my teens and that was when everything changed. Still I think he left me with a lot of strength that’s allowed me to make my way. My dad was 49 when ge passed.

A Child without a father figure in their life will seek one,
🙏Pray for such children, that they DON'T fall victim to those who PREY on them.

My dad was a great role model. I consider myself fortunate to have had such wonderful parents.

someone who provides, protects and teaches his child/children while preparing them for adulthood
