A Dad's Perspective
Hi I can't help but notice that a lot of guys don't want to be dads and I just don't understand it. I'm a dad and I am so greatful that God gave me my son he is truly the greatest blessing in my life. My wife and I don't earn a lot of money and raising a child is very difficult but with Gods help we find a way. We have just discovered that my wife is pregnant again and it will increase our problems but I'm not unhappy. In fact I am so happy I wish to scream it to the world. Having a child is amazing I often just sit and watch my son who is 3 now and I am amazed watching him discover his own abilities and failures.
It is something I could do all day. And no matter how tough things get or how naughty he can be when he comes over to me puts his arms around me and squeezes me with all his might then looks up and gives me a kiss and says, "I love you daddy", I know that I did the right thing in having him in that moment nothing else matters and I know I would gladly lay down my life for him. I really can't wait for my next one. The point is no matter how tough things may become I promise you your child will be worth it there is no price to pay or burden to carry or pain to endure that could ever make you regret the choice to keep your child.

"I so believe that it is incredibly important because I see a lot of my generation being ripped off in this area, really thrown a lie that you can do whatever feels good, just please yourself, and they are not talking about the consequences."


I understand where your comeing from a lot of dad's are scared when their girl friend say's the words I'm pragnant I'm sure they get worryed how there going to handel everything. I'm eighteen and i had to tell my boyfriend that three mounths ago and he was very supportive really great about it he has been to every doctors apportment he opens doors and carry's boxes its been a wonderful haveing his by my side. my father wasn't in the picture so i thought he wouldn't be any kind of support but he was turned out to be a great man.
