He's doing it on purpose. Your child's behaviour is a fire alarm. Stop turning it off.

Don’t Let Busyness Steal Your Fatherhood Life is fast. There’s always something to do, something to fix, something to get done. But fatherhood isn’t found in the rush—it’s found in the pause.

🧵1-The Stubbornness Boomerang When you refuse to let your kids "get their own way," you’re teaching them to be just as stubborn as you. The harder you push, the harder they push back. The more you dig in, the more they resist.

As a parent we need to act as a container to hold all of our kids emotions, until they are ready to handle them on their own.

What happens when you hit ice and steer the wrong way? Now what happens when you get into a battle with your kids? Steer into the emotion it's emotionally safer for everyone involved. What have you noticed when you've fully accepted your kids feelings?

Failing My Way to Better Fatherhood
“When I’m sad, I only go to Mummy

Those words landed like a punch to the gut. We were out as a family, enjoying what should have been a simple, fun day, when my son dropped this line. Instantly, I felt my heart clench. I looked at my wife, and the concern in her eyes reflected back at me. Neither of us needed to say it, but I knew she was thinking: You’ve created this emotional distance, and now he doesn’t feel safe coming to you.

Be A Super Dad @beasuperdad.bsky.social · 29/01/2025
If you can't tolerate sadness, shame or anger, you won't tolerate it in your kids. Do you get triggered with these emotions and do you see a pattern in your behaviour? #fatherhood #parenting

Be A Super Dad @beasuperdad.bsky.social · 29/01/2025
Hey Dad, Life is easier with a plan. Reflect on those times where you feel you been pushed to your limit. Recognise those patterns so you can intervene before you ‘lose it'.
