Daddy, Father, Pop, Dad – What kind of relationship have you had?
—
• Is your dad a hero, a best friend, loads of fun and a mentor.
• Or, was he tough, a disciplinarian, and the boss.
• What about the step-dads, uncles, family friends, teachers, and community leaders who often step in when the biological father is gone?
There are countless different relationships fathers can have with their children. What was yours like with your dad?
What did you call him? What did he call you? Were there any nicknames you used?
What did you do together, or wish you had.
What would you say to him today if you had the chance?
Was there someone else in your life that was a father-figure that you honor instead?
Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a dad. – Anne Geddes
