Of course, unfortunately, we can't go back and erase what is done. However, we can start today to build a better relationship, be more caring, and show our love. @fathersez – I’m sure we all have areas of our lives where we could have done better.

As a not too competent father, I fully appreciate the points you have made. I have also looked back at my mistakes and wish we all are given a chance to make amends.

This is a great article for dads and moms. You're right about making children a priority, right at the top of the list. Bringing kids into the world is an enormous responsibility, and too many parents aren't being responsible parents. Don't beat yourself up too much though, everyone makes mistakes in parenting their kids and as you said, kids are very forgiving. Subscribed! :) Hi Jeff,

In constant chase for our own goals, we often forget that we have a higher purpose in life. That purpose is to nurture our own kids. You've precisely described three P's that are so essential for this nurturing process. I have just posted a post "10 Pillars of Successful Youth". I'd love to have your comments on that. http://www.successsoul.com/2008/04/10/10-pillars-of-successful-youth/ Thanks Shilpan Jeff,

It isn't always easy put your own wants and desires behind theirs, but it is the adult thing to do. @FD - Rant all you want here! I'm glad to hear that my article had meaning for you. You are absolutely right about the perception that we are doing right by our kids when we work longer hours to earn more. I think any kid would tell you that this is off base. They would rather have more time with their dad instead of another toy or gadget.

You know, so many people spend their lives chasing the dime because they think they are doing the right thing for their children. In fact, if they cut their hours in half, earned less money and doubled the amount of time they spent with their kids they would all be better off for it. This is especially true of us dads, who have been told for decades that it is our responsiblity to "provide for" our children, and by provide they really mean, buy them anything and everything under the sun! So we go off to work 60 hour weeks, travel all about the country away from our families, and become weekend visitors to our own children. The sooner we can get out of that rat race the better! Thanks for letting me rant a bit on your blog - can you tell your article touched a nerve? Excellent article, Jeff.
