The best thing a father can do for his kids. The main thing that a father can do for his kids is to provide a rock-solid, stable place for his children to be safe. What I mean by that is not only is a father not someone who endangers his children, God forbid, but to the contrary, when your children feel that life is unsafe and they need stability, they gravitate to you and you don't even necessarily have to have anything to say but your whole energy exudes security. The main thing that a person gains from having a father in their life is this feeling that there is a safe place. And that's why I always encourage men to work on that. Work on being less emotionally reactive. Work on being more in control of your feelings. Work on your faith so you can exude courage even when there are storms in life. You be that place of rock-solid safety and security.
