Fathers are leaders once you head the family. And leaders are individuals who affect the thoughts, feelings and behaviour of significant number of individuals. You must be an educator, bridging the gap between your vision and the children. You must be able to walk the talk and be a great example to your children. Let me use this opportunity to classified fathers into 4 groups namely:  Filtering Fathers  Failing Fathers  Fixed Fathers  Forceful Fathers Filtering Fathers: These are the ones who are organized with efficient system for recording and reviewing progress of their life and children. They serve, and are actively involved in their own development and the children, providing opportunities for other siblings, work together but create …show more content…

On the surface people see this father as potentially high levelled father who believes in transformation and change. They are not easy to convince or undermine their intelligence. They initiate, and combine innovation to create something new that is profitable and sustainable. Few fathers like this succeed and make the most out of their children and family, but majority tend to fail in their quest for power and material wealth In a nutshell, I would like to encourage fathers as you find yourselves in these groups to learn specific knowledge and habits related to true fatherhood skills. As a father, you need to understand the history, values and beliefs of managing children. Express high expectation of, confidence in, and respect for fathers served in any capacity.

I am progressively working towards the independence of my other siblings so they can lead the affairss of their own destiny. Independence does not necessarily mean freedom but emancipation from mental slavery is. I will be there to serve as the beacon of hope and motivation to them as well.

Fathers have shaped the framework of many successes in society: Beyoncé, Khloe Kardashian, Justin Timberlake—renowned celebrities who have all given sincere gratitude to those who knew them before the world ever gave them a thought, their fathers (Linshi, 2015).

    In doing so there may be a chance to limit the amount of failure in that community. If fathers are significant in how prosperous their sons become, then fathers may need to be educated on the importance of fatherhood. In cases where “Self-determination” has driven individuals to succeed, they may be able to mentor future generations on how to project that from within. Davis, Jenkins and Hunt (2007) tell of their stories of how having a fatherless childhood effect their development, but it also tells of how they overcame their life obstacles.

Do they run at it head on and recklessly attempt to deal with it? Do they lose faith with their religion and their God? Or do they simply pray, and hope that amongst all of their misery that something good will come of it and a light will be found in the end? Those are the hard decisions that people are forced to make on the daily, and maybe the questions that we have, or the lack of faith we endure is what makes us stronger at the end of the day.
