BE A HERO MEN is a site dedicated to encouraging all men around the world to stand up and fight for the well being of their families.
 

How many times do you smile at your wife or children?  It's important that men understand the impact they have on the family when they get home from work.  Take time to prepare yourself when you walk in the door.  When you walk in the door SMILE!  Smile at your wife, smile at your children and smile at your dog if you have one.  Men your smile to your family reassures your presence of one who cares for them and sends the message that you have missed them while you were gone from home.

Be A HERO Men!

 

When your child makes a mistake in school its important that your child know what your expectations are.  Its ok to be firm and discipline, but at the same time no need to crush your child's spirit the rest of the evening.  Take time to discipline, but also reassure your child that you love them and that you still want to be their HERO!

 

Several days ago a young mother came to me and asked why her son doesn't talk to her that much?  She proceeded to tell me that her 1st grade boy came home from school one day and shared a story with the mom.  The young boy mentioned how a 5th grade girl was talking to him at school.  Immediately the young mother scolded the young boy and strictly prohibited him from talking to girls, especially older ones.  Although I agree with the mother regarding her young child talking to older students, what she failed to do was take time to listen to the whole story.  Children really just want someone to listen to them, to validate their ideas and thoughts.  Once this is accomplished, parents should then guide and instruct their child on proper conduct around others.

Take time to listen.
