A father’s smile gives attention, encouragement, and affirmation. These are three of the powerful ingredients of uplifting fatherhood.

I am a father of three. I agree with the three ingredients. Attention, encouragement, and affirmation are three factors that will help our children build their confidence. Giving attention does not mean that we should watch over our children 24 hours a day but giving attention is like giving compliments, and making engagements with our little kids. Encouragement gives supports to our child's creativity. Do not say " That is bad" but we'd better say "What do you think of this" you can compare something better. Affirmation is to provide reinforcement to good and creative things. children will feel happy when their work gets appreciation. Make a frame on our child's painting and display it in a room or a place that can be seen by many people. This is an affirmation of self-confidence with creativity.
