Happy Father's day to all the father in the world.Yesterday I did watch a series and the story is all about a father who plays a mother and father role to his kids,because the mother of the family is the one working abroad. They said the hardest role of being a father is to have a role in the family being a mother,but do you think its is acceptable that the mother is the one working while the father is the one taking care of the kids at home? What are your views about this situation? Happy Fathers Day to all our father and to all best father in the world.:)

As a role model,children learn from their fathers and mothers,and their actions.They emulate the desirable behavior and then discard the undesirable.Therefore knowing yourself,and how others perceive you is essential when your children are learning from you both directly and indirectly.Your children need to be taught right from wrong and see it demonstrated on a daily basis by their father

Yes because being a mom and dad in the family you are the role model,what did you teach your children and maybe what their actions in the long run,it will reflect to both of you how you raise them.

elleb, i think you are a filipino, am i not right? you saw MMK? =P yes the story touches me too. it is very right to salute the fathers who play the role of a mother and father and are actaully able to bring up disciplined children. a single role is already very hard, much more the 2 roles put together for just one person!

Did you know that it is a true story?I been saw that place,the place they called was LITTLE ITALY.It was in Luzon,houses their are all Italian concepts and yes most of the wives are working in Italy and the husband are the one taking care of the kids. Yes it's hard to play a dual role.I play a dual role too,as a mom and dad to my kids.But I am happy that I did raise my kids well.

Being a dad is something really wonderful, we often see mothers taking great care of the children but when it comes to fathers taking care of them it is a sight to be seen because it is beautiful and so desiring to have such a father, my father is the best though, he loves me a lot and hence does not even say something to make me feel bad even if he has to do everything.

You have a great dad, same as me I have a great dad too,but did you know that not all are blessed with good dad?why?because it's easy to become a father but to become a dad is hard.
