Fatherhood

Can you see that little boy in fear while his sister is crying because daddy is no where in sight? You claimed to be a man? But what about trying to be a father, and now doing what you know is supposed to be right…? Why do you turn your back on your children just because you do not get along with your babies’ mama..? You helped to bring them into this world, so why just up and leave to abandon them in a world fulfilled of drama..? A real man stays around to make sure that his child is raised correctly and to watch as that child grow up.. So take part in your child’s life because no parents should want their kids’ childhood to grow up so rough..! Why not take some time out to shower your child with love, care, and show that unity.. Because we all know too well that we already have too many missing fathers out there in our community …!! Blessed indeed is the man who hears gentle voices calling him father ….!
