Dads are always more calm than moms. Why?
Perhaps it's to create a balance. I freak out and get paranoid half a mile before we have to cross the street and begin gathering them. In my "mom-mind", I can already see an accident happening...but dad...oh, no! No stress. Dad: "Don't do it" versus Mom: "Get back here!" All-in-all, dad wins anyways with his calm approach. You're not a "meanie", you're a "calmie"

Thank you very much, "Mom"! You are Up-Voted and you are in control! Very insightful post; my wife (the wife of my FIRST son) divorced me after telling me: "I will only stay with you if you make me the queen bee" and I said no. My second wife (Mother of my other two sons, 3 altogether, literally said the same thing at different times during our relationship. She finally left me 2 months ago after 30 years (see: https://steemit.com/life/@knowledge-trust/the-most-devastating-day-of-my-life) But both of my wives said that I was the best father in the world!!!!! Go figure!!! So when a Mom compliments me, I take that in with all of my heart. I am sincerely confused as to what I am supposed to do or what role I am to play in my relationships. They say they love me for being a good Dad but they leave me for being a good Dad! Thank you for reading my post. Thank you for your comment. I am most grateful.
And you @bdmomuae are a good parent and a person of character and integrity. Thank you for your comment!
