Fathers and Finance

 Growing up I always assumed fathers had the role of protector, the provider, and the disciplinarian. As a protector he makes sure we are safe and guarantees their child's safety by shaping their environment. They look at their surroundings, the household, the neighborhood, the community, and encourage safe opportunities, as well as remove hazards from the child's path. He is also the strongest member of the family we can always look to when we need help. As the role of provider, a father's ability to provide for his family. To be able to work hard and long hours to be able to support his family. So they are able to eat three meals a day and sleep in warm beds every night. Working so the mother can stay and care for the children. It’s a very hard thing to do but necessary for their family to live healthy and comfratable lives. The disciplinarian role is preparing their child for the future, fathers often have high expectations. They want their child to succeed, to see what's on the horizon, to aspire to bigger and better things. As such, fathers need to be there to teach their child how to handle their impulses, how to stay calm under stress, and how to deal with situations where they don't endanger themselves or endanger others. In class we also talked about the benefit from having a full-time parent in the home. One of the best things about being a stay-at-home parent is that you won’t miss any of your child’s milestones. You’ll be there when your little one shows their first genuine smile, says their first word and takes their first step.While there are times that you have to do chores around the house or take time for yourself, your child still get’s your full attention every day. If your child needs you, you can stop what you’re doing and go to them. Whether you have a high-stress job or work with stressful, dramatic people, you won’t have to worry about any of that when you’re a stay-at-home parent. One of the top reasons to be a stay-at-home parent is that it is one of the most rewarding things. Knowing that your child is getting the special care that only you can give them, and watching them thrive because of it, will make you feel very rewarded. Usually the mother is the stay at home parent.
