How to be a Super Daddy

Super Daddy
"As a father, you must have the mindset that being a dad is your most important job." Mark Merrill


When you ask this question you will get many answers, but it all boils down to LOVE.
Here is my list of a super dad and you are welcome to add more to the list:


• He does not bring work back but come home just to look after the children.
• He talks to the children and finds out things that have happened at school.
• He eats dinner with the children and chats with them.
• He exercises with the children outdoor to promote health and fitness,
• He encourages the children to do their best at school but does not ask them to compete with others.
• He acts as a tutor to help them out in their homework and teach them more about lessons in life.
• He is fair to all his children.
• He takes them to the mall even just for window shopping to enjoy an evening together.
• He sets good examples like not smoking instead of preaching.
• He may be a daddy but he is friendly and approachable.
• He is the driver to the children.
• He is the walking dictionary to the children.
• The children relate to their father what they have learnt in class.
• He is the logistical planner on a busy Sunday when the children are engaged in various activities.
• He prepares a simple but nutritious breakfast such as perfect half-boiled eggs for the children before they go to school.
• He monitors the posting of children on their blogs to make sure that personal information is not disclosed.
• He does reading at home instead of watching TV so that the children are influenced by his habit to cultivate a love for books.
• He gives out pocket money at the beginning of every month to encourage financial planning. They have to budget their spending to last until the end of a month. They have to set aside and accumulate an amount monthly if they wish to purchase a big ticket item for themselves.
• He takes a proactive step to provide safety guidelines online and offline for the children
