As men we may not see a support network in our friends but thats just what they are and we need to acknowledge how important they are and what key roles they play.

The English summer is here and the children have been let out of school for about 6 weeks, ( what do we do ? ) its time to get our imaginations flowing and our children smiling, finding activities for them can be hard and expensive but they are out there we just need to look harder.

is a big thing now and getting even bigger, we as parents have to be aware of our children's feeling and their surroundings to make sure the affects of life are helping them in a way that is benefiting them.

Your finances are not suppose to be a joke but it seems like most of us take our finances for some kind of plaything not knowing how important they are to us and to the next generation, being able to provide for your children is a blessing and we need to prepare for when were gone.

So many of us fathers have had no positive influence input in our lives its truly sad but we as fathers have an opportunity to turn that around, and with all the strength i can muster you can trust im going to try and be a positive influence in my sons lives and i hope you will do the same or similar.

A convo which in both of us had a lot to say, remember we've bot got sons and both run discipline in our houses but boys can be hard work as I'm sure dome of you already know.

Milestones come and go but the experience lasts a lifetime...

Is a long list of things we didn't expect and as my bro said its relative to the individual, we all know what kind of dad we would like to be but the reality is we may not be all that all the time but we can try and I'm sure you do I know I do.
