Mother dreams that her son grew up the real man: brave, reliable, responsible, hardworking. But for this purpose only its efforts are not enough. That the boy turned into such man, it is very important that before his eyes there was always an example of the careful, loving, reasonably exacting father. The father plays a major role in formation of future courage of the child.
Role of the father in education of the child
Why it is important that the father looked after the son at infantile age? Some men are sure that only women have to potter with helpless babies, and husbands need to be connected to education process a bit later when children a little grow up, will start walking and to speak. However this wrong opinion. The earlier the father will begin to look after the kid, the quicker and easier there will be at the child to him a psychological attachment, trust. The helpless baby for obvious reasons most of all depends on mother, and is most strongly attached to her. But it is very important to it to understand that the father loves it too. Then at more advanced age it will much easier established the close, trusting relations with the father.
The father is quite capable to swaddle the baby, to rock to sleep him, singing a lullaby, or to submit for walk. In it there is nothing difficult. Fears of many men that they can unintentionally hurt by inexperience to the small child are insolvent.
Besides, participation of the father in care for the little son helps the child to become less dependent on mother, and it is very important for formation of future male character.
Whether the father is necessary to the growing-up child
The growing-up son follows an example of the father. When the boy a little grows up, he begins as a sponge to absorb knowledge and habits received at communication with the closest people: mother and father. At the same time, watching behavior of the father, listening as what tone that speaks, the son involuntarily draws a conclusion: that's it so men behave. Also begins to imitate the father. Both in good, and in bad.
Of course, imitation not always is full, but the son by all means adopts some part of habits, manners, the father's views.
There are no ideal people on light therefore any father surely will have not only advantages, but also shortcomings. But it is very important that the father set the son significantly more kind examples, than negative. Especially it concerns the attitudes of the father of the child towards his mother. If the husband is polite, patient, does not allow roughness, tactlessness to the wife, attentively listens to her opinion, then and their son, most likely, will grow up the gallant man, sympathetic and kind. If the father treats mother with neglect, roughness, it is not considered with her opinion and furthermore, raises a hand against it, probability is high, as the grown-up son will bring elements of the same relations already in the matrimonial life.
