    A Need For Better Fathers

    In these past years, I have spent many hours speaking with good men about becoming better fathers. These have been some of the best conversations of my life. My strategy comes from the philosophy of peaceful parenting. This is much different from the traditional methods that our parents raised most of us and how many raise their kids now. Being a better father takes a lot of hard work and is often undervalued in today’s world. For me there was no greater path to masculinity than becoming a good father. It is challenging to break bad habits. Especially when we start examining the data and environment, we are creating in our home. Most parents are on the authoritative side of things, with almost 90% of parents still spanking their child as a form of discipline. It is easy to ignore all the studies and all the negative outcomes attributed to spanking your child, but it is painful to face the truth. Ask your child how it feels at that moment, what they were thinking and what did they learn. Imagine if we asked the person we were striking with our hands how this made them feel and owning those actions,...

    Nothing Genuine is Easily Destroyed

    In a previous post that I wrote for The Forge of Men, I explained about how you are raising the next “Nice Guy.” I explained how ineffective and abusive parenting methods cause us to raise a boy that becomes detached from his own needs to gain acceptance from his parents. He quickly learns that if he is good, people will like him, and the Nice Guy is created.  This child will be depressed, suffer sickness, and lack confidence because everything he has done was for someone else. There is no real attachment to a true identity.  In adulthood, this man unknowingly displays weakness and avoids any conflict to be recognized as friendly. Only so long can he suppress his true desires and instincts without the outward projection of being an asshole. It is a struggle to live in the shadows.  The faults of admiration.  What about the other boy who seems confident and is admired by everyone? If you take away this admiration, and he too suffers greatly.  This is another example of how our parenting methods can have adverse effects on our boys when we stay trapped in traditional parenting methods. It is often difficult to think back to,...

    POWER WORKS EASILY ON THE ONES WHO DEPEND ON YOU

    There are many reasons why a father will struggle to accept the realities of the relationship he has with his children. It can be overwhelming to find acceptance when your constant desire for authority is creating continuous conflicts. It will help if you compare any immoral behaviors to the standards in all the other relationships you’ve come to value in your life. It takes a courageous man to look at himself and admit he is not using the best parenting methods.  You can get trapped in traditional parenting ideas that guide you to unsatisfactory results and inevitably cause more pain between you and your child. You will resort to punishments or rewards to maintain your authority. This never works and is ineffective because it destroys any attempt with communicating and problem-solving. It creates an untrustworthy home full of dishonesty and deception. Your go-to parenting phrases are now “I’m doing this for your own good,” “Because I said so,” and “I’m the boss.” Phrases like these should be seen for what they are, lazy and mean. As men, we should call out other fathers who resort to such weak language and encourage each other to be better.  These are conversations most,...

Most fathers believe they need to be authoritative Most fathers believe they need to be authoritative to gain respect in their families. They perceive they might seem weak if their child does not obey them. Usually, this happens because of internalized beliefs that we are not doing the best that we could. Instead of changing ourselves, we become reactive and focus only on our child’s behaviors.  Learning to negotiate with your child is a skill that will benefit both of you for a lifetime. Teaching your child they are not inferior, and that they can succeed with support from dad. It becomes about finding meaning within yourself, so you can continue to guide them to a life of fulfillment and abundance.

"Experience has taught us that we have only one en "Experience has taught us that we have only one enduring weapon in our struggle against mental illness: the emotional discovery of the truth about the unique history of our childhood. Is it possible, then, to free ourselves altogether from illusions? History demonstrates that they sneak in everywhere, that every life is full of them—perhaps because truth often seems unbearable to us. And yet truth is so essential that it's loss exacts a heavy toll, in the form of grave illness. In order to become whole we must try, in a long time process, to discover our own personal truth, a truth that may cause pain before giving us a new sphere of freedom. If we choose instead to content ourselves with intellectual "wisdom" we will remain in the sphere of illusion and self-deception. The damage done to us during childhood cannot be undone, since we cannot change anything in our past. We can, however, change ourselves."—Alice Miller Thepolitesavage.blog Peacefulfathers.com

We often criticize children for being susceptible We often criticize children for being susceptible to the allure of instant gratification. ⠀ ⠀ Very rarely do we take a moment and realize the effects of our own parenting methods.

When we scream, yell, hit, spank, and punish our children we are teaching them the pleasure of instant gratification. ⠀ ⠀ When we take the time to build a strong foundation, explain things, negotiate outcomes, and are passionate about creating healthy relationships, we teach our children the importance of delayed gratification.

The true strength of a man is determined with how The true strength of a man is determined with how he treats his children. We live in a time when it is still acceptable to hit or spank children. Society can not and will not improve until fathers take action in providing safety and protection. Spanking is domestic violence just as much as hitting your spouse is domestic violence. The difference is your spouse is an adult and can leave the relationship. Children are powerless and dependent on their parents. This is the greatest abuse of power. I refuse to inflict any type of violence on my children. It is my job as a father to protect them and teach them to be aware of abusers. I never want to be the abuser. I never want to see how much abuse is too much. I never want my children to fear me. I set higher standards for my children.
It is important and extremely difficult to realize It is important and extremely difficult to realize your own self worth. As children most of us weren't raised with the best intentions of good self esteem. There was an overwhelming burden of punishments, shame, guilt, anxiety, abuse, and conformity. A childhood that was made to endure the unawareness of the previous generations. There is overwhelming evidence that high self esteem correlates to how we treat others with respect, kindness, and generosity. This is painful to comprehend if our own childhood did not encourage these things. Because you are a parent, a family member, or a friend does not exclude you from treating others with these principles. If we want to raise happy and healthy children we need to break the cycle that is holding us to these lower standards. As parents we should be raising our children peacefully. We should be teaching or children to have the courage to live a life that is authentic. Otherwise they will spend a good part of their lives hiding from others and themselves.
