The world needs more dads like this! Kids need active dads! The world would be a better place👍

[@KaoXoni]

His approach to parenting is technically positive psychology in a snowball scheme. Indeed a life-changig, game-changing and world-changing concept. Just Imagine the compound impact regarding the grandchildren and so on...

[@miriparentinginfogroup]

As a parent, we can give what we have and what we don't have, is something we need to work on to learn it with our children. Else others will teach them for sure 😜

[@theacademictaskmaster6481]

Daughters may have their father's heart. But, the sons have that special bond with their grandfathers.

Dude this has been my stated goal since 2018. The only question is how is the best father measured...

[@martinshuudeni5247]

Great question, a great father is measured by the standards of who is the source of Fatherhood. The creator of heaven and earth

Woooooooooooooooooow. What a dad. Goal Achieved.

[@samanthabesse9859]

Thats beautiful 👏👏

[@ishma2100]

This guy is awesome

[@pastoraris1001]

Wow thank you!! Challenge accepted! Some times common sense, especially when it comes to parenting is not common practice. And in the simplicity of a message you find a powerful seed that grows deep and Strong root and at the same time becomes the most Tall. 1-have a visión, 2-be the example 3-focus on the person not the action 4-keep the line of communication open by projecting this message: I will listen I will take you seriously I will respond.

[@joshuahope3967]

Great learning and eye opening, thank you sir. Blessed are your children and grandchildren.

[@sarahceciliefinkelsteinwat9735]

[@drakirolopez7859]

Kids will do as they wish, so drink, be bad. A good dad would be one whose kids even talk to him.
