What can moms do to help foster the father son relationship?
The most rewarding facet of fatherhood is to remain engaged with my children and observe them develop in their own unique ways. Sharing “quality time” and activities together, communicating openly, expressing love, constructively dealing with conflict and disagreement, and seeing how something valued from myself (or my wife) is being carried forward in our children is deeply gratifying — and most particularly witnessing our children experience life’s joys as well as the inevitable disappointments in honest, authentic, and generous ways. There is something deeply gratifying in the reciprocal development that occurs when a father remains constructively involved with his maturing child.
