What is a father?

[bennies_819]

Dads should remind children of the consequences of their actions and positively acknowledge desirable behavior. Fathers who discipline in a calm and fair manner show love for their children. Be your childs role model. Whether they realize it or not, fathers are role models to their kids.
I have scriptures that tell you what a father actually is that God gives to us:
John15:15
Friend
Matthew6:11
Provider
Matthew3:17
Leader
Matthew4:1-11
Teacher
Matthew9:9-13
Protector
Psalm10:14
Helper
Hebrews12:5
Encourager

The biggest thing that dads do is teach their kids the guy code. I think its probably the number one thing that sets particularly girls down a bad path as they have no real good center point to judge guys from without some father figure. Ya got all these single moms who go onto wondering why their daughters can choose or find decent guys its like. Gotta wonder what role model is their guide if their only one they have is their single mom. Kids live a similar life to what their parents live.
