How many children do you have? 3
What does fatherhood mean to you? The opportunity to educate and raise my children with open minds and creative thinking. To provide them with a nurturing environment that allows and encourages intelligence and compassion. Finally to teach them to love unconditionally and appreciate everyday.
What is the best part of being a father or father-figure? The best part of being both a father and father figure in the community has to be watching the successes of the children I have mentored and help guide down life s tricky paths. My goal has always been and will continue to be changing children s lives one at a time and building a better community.
What is the challenging part of being a father or father-figure? For me there is no challenging part of being a father or father figure. I embrace the youth and speak to them with respect and admiration. You have to understand that the youth of today are the future leaders of tomorrow and not just to be seen and not heard.
What advice do you have for fathers or father-figures in our community? The secret message communicated to most young people today by the society around them is that they are not needed, that the society will run itself quite nicely until they at some distant point in the future will take over the reigns. Yet the fact is that the society is not running itself nicely because the rest of us need all the energy, brains, imagination and talent that young people can bring to bear down on our difficulties. For society to attempt to solve its desperate problems without the full participation of even very young people is imbecile. Quote from Alvin Toffler
