Be a Fan of Your Kid

Although this site seems to be a little stale and specifically directed at the Denver Colorado region, I really like the sentiment. Being a fan of your kid seems like such a natural, simple exhortation...but all too often we dads can slip into a critical, "tough love" mentality.

Don't get me wrong. Part of what makes a dad so important in a child's life is the "edge" we bring...the tendency to challenge our kids, push them beyond their limits, and prepare them for life in the real world. All that Wild at Heart stuff!

However, we must always be careful to not sacrifice our relationship and positive influence for performance.

Be sure to check out the "A Full Day of Fun" idea on the website. Can you come up with 16 straight hours of activities to do with your kids??
