BetterDads · The guide

The 5 things your kids actually need from you.

Most of us grew up believing the job is to provide. Earn the money, keep them safe, fix things. That's not wrong. It's just incomplete. This is the part nobody told us, in ten minutes, written by a man who got it wrong first.

1
Presence — not time. Twenty real minutes beats four half-there hours.
2
Steadiness — they don't need a perfect father. They need a predictable one.
3
Self-knowledge — you can't give what you don't have.
4
Repair — you'll get it wrong. What you do next is what they remember.
5
Modelling — they learn what a man is from what you do, not what you say.
