YOUR WEEKLY FATHERING TIP: BE PRESENT

  • Engage in the activity. Make eye contact and really pay attention to what is going on.
  • Put your phone away and put work out of your mind during the time you are at your child’s activity. Really focus on them.
  • Be there mentally, not just physically.
  • Take some time before you get home to write down work issues to attend to later so you can focus on your kids when you get home.
