Were you inspired by the video clips of Irene and her new parenting skills after she attended my Better Parenting Skills workshop? Well, here is the final part of Irene’s story, with a message for fathers at the end.
Since we all take our first parenting steps with our first child, most of us make the most parenting mistakes with that child too. In that case, Irene’s experience should seem very familiar and now, she knows what to do about it!
I believe that fathers are as important to their kids as mothers are, especially for boys. Many men find it more difficult to learn parenting, which is why many of my workshops have an overwhelming female majority, but this has to change!
Girls, show your husbands Irene’s video testimonials, especially this one, and ask them to come along to learn parenting. Fathers who have attended have gotten wonderfully close to their kids and are truly happy they have come.
Book this great workshop for your own school or organization.
See you soon,
Ronit

May 15, 2010 at 8:20 pmAs more and more women have started venturing out to earn to meet the growing expenses, the men folk too should lend a helping hand to her at home. They can at least tend to the kids(get them ready for school or help them with their home work etc).
The special Parenting Classes for men would go a long way in this direction.

Well, I think that dads should be more involved in their kids’ life regardless of what women do.
We have the kids together and we need to give them as much as we can for them to grow and be happy kids and our time is a valuable gift.
The reasons dads are not as involved has a social – historical origin. It was very appropriate to the society and the understanding they had in the ancient time. I am not here to criticize them but to say that ancient values should not be kept as is after thousands of years of evolution.
Kids need a family structure where mom and dad are very much involved and care for them – physically and emotionally and even the best mom in the world cannot substitute for a caring involved dad.
Thanks for your comment,
Ronit
