Building Camelot: Teach Yourself to Be a Better Father And Husband

  • ResilientMonkey · 2 years ago
    Wow, I like this one :) It really strikes a chord with me. As a programmer, I'm used to learning new languages by ripping apart code and seeing what the various parts do. This of course is not possible with fathership/husbandry... don't want any disassembled dad's now do we. But reading books/blogs that other dads/husbands have written with their experience and knowledge makes a lot of sense. The added enforcement of writing it in your own words AND reading it, I agree here, will make it stick better.

    Again, going back to programming, if I rip apart a program and see how it works, I will learn a little. If I re-write the program in my own way and explain it to others (or myself) I will learn a lot.

    Thanks again for the neat blog Tyler!

    @RM:

    Thanks for your kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the post.

    I'm not a programmer but I do I ton of work in MS Access. I had to rebuild a huge database a few years ago because I screwed it up...that's another story. But I learned more about databases doing that than 4 years in college.

    I'll admit that I'm not the best at doing all three of these things, but you can't expect to become a perfect husband/father overnight. It is a process, and with many processes, you can get caught up in how to do it right, or do it better.

    With these steps in mind, you'll have something to fall back on when you get stuck.

    Regards,

    I wouldn't write it down with anything other than a dry erase or pencil and be sure to submit to the Mrs. for review.

    Kids are what keep us humble. Being a good father and husband in front of them is the better than anything you can tell them. They are going to be husbands, fathers, wifes and mother for your grandchildren.
