If you are a just and loving father, your kids will love your mother too, but always want to be with you. Especially sons. When they become teens, their relationship with their father will base all their relationships forward. You being their safe harbor will mean they will always come to you when things get ugly.
Be there for your children. It means the world to them. And if they are not, dont despair; being just AND loving is better than being only one.
love my boomer parents, but never had that safe harbor relationship with them. i had my head constantly bitten off growing up whenever speaking my mind. like a typical teenager, i just knew my parents were wrong about this and that. growing older, you are supposed to shed your teenage rebellious nature and appreciate why your parents are the way they are, except with me, it was more, holy shit these fucking boomers are fucking wrong about absolutely everything, are hellbent on sabotaging this planet before they leave, and mother fucker i am carrying their retarded genetic material.
my girl talks to her parents almost every day. i talk to mine maybe every other week, and have to pop a few back before doing so.
