Why Fathers Need to Admit When They're Wrong (Nick Freitas)

[@TheTradDadShow]

Be meek and humble of heart. It's so difficult to act objectively in the heat of emotion.

[@NorthLVLowRoller]

I admit when I'm wrong all the time, hardest thing honestly is getting mom to admit when shes wrong lol.

[@derickhoward9833]

@NorthLVLowRoller in my personal opinion. being a bigger person is a man's job. Sorry that sounds crass. But for the same reason that women need things that men don't when they are sick or healing a wound. They are built differently. Admitting your wrong for the sake of teaching your children is something a warrior does. It is of equal value for her to experience this shame without demonstration of experience because that's what a man is for. No one is looking to mom to see how things are done when Dad is in the picture. The mom is looking at dad too. The behavior changes when they see the behavior change. I hope this makes sense

@derickhoward9833 I like that alot.

​@NorthLVLowRoller thanks man. My fiance helped me flesh out this thought she believes the woman's responsibility here is to maybe validate the children and the father when they do take accountability. 😊

Except both men and women must be accountable for personal sin for the salvation of their soul. It might be more edifying to the family when the father does if, but it is still required of mither for her own sake at least in the confessional. We all should be able to admit our faults to a loving and merciful God

​​@@derickhoward9833 do not infantalize women, please. We are all held to the same moral standards by Christ. And besides, even children are called out when they are in the wrong. Parents shouldn't call each other out in front of their children, period, but women can't be held to lesser standards. They will think that's all they're capable of, or they'll use it as an excuse.

My parents couldn’t admit they’re wrong or apologize. Most of the problems in their lives & the pain they caused their kids is because of that. Once you get past all the hurt, stress, & anger is sad to think of the amount of hell they brought into themselves because they couldn’t even admit to themselves they could possibly be wrong, that they don’t know everything, & there are better ways to handle things. Please don’t do that to your kids. Be better.

...and hold their children accountable just as equally. This is fathers equally fail on.
