Men, Stop Staying Late At The Office by yvesboss(op): 9:49pm On Jun 08, 2024
While this is not a chant for irresponsible work life balance, it is a shout out call to men especially those with a young family.

To stamp in the training you so desire to enshrine on your children, you will need more time with the children which includes closing early from work and intentionally teaching your children the way to go.

The mistake most young fathers make is to delegate all this to the mother during the week maybe because her job is more flexible and she comes home early only for the father to show up during the weekend and start complaining of complacency. Newsflash….. it is very possible the mother is stressed too during the day and will leave the children out to the maid or channel 314 on Dstv or coco melon on her phone just to catch some rest too. The children now are at the mercy of what the maid deems right or wrong or they start getting addicted to the devices and nothing else matters. Sometimes, you will observe your 4-5 year old has “seen finish”your spouse and no longer respond to her instructions. These things are real.

Dear Fathers, it is time for us now to be very intentional about raising our children and to better achieve this, we need to get home early from our places of businesses and work then be very involved.

Ciao!

Some men live longer because of staying late in the office to cool off after the day's work. Do you know whether he is avoiding his wife, looking to sneak in when she is already asleep or staying long for traffic to subside. Me I get home 11pm every night.

In this, still need to consider the upbringing of the children, they can easily be lost in an unhealthy marriage and a missing father situation

Gives you some hours before the children retire for the day
