I’m convinced that boys need a male role model, but probably not in the way that you think. For all my military folk, think of it as not being relieved from duty for your entire career in the military. You are stuck on post for 18-20 years. Now think of that in regards to a child where you are the protector of mom, and no man ever comes to relieve you of your duties. You’re on a constant watch. Which may sound more familiar to moms is that when dad is not home, boys are more rowdy, more in the mindset of conditioning in order to prepare for when they must be physical in a defensive altercation. Until dad comes home it’s fight, play, run jump, trampoline or play with swords and guns. Now to think of what men do when they see a boy, they may even do the same in order to test his strength and worthiness to protect the castle. You can learn a lot from a 6 year old when you pay attention. I encourage any man entering a household with growing boys to be cautious. You may just be entering a nerf war, the floor is lava, or may have to fight to the death so that the princess can be rescued from the top of the castle. Be aware the princess can be a hamster or a 2 year old pup with a ribbon tied around the neck. I don’t want to say more than ever that we need little boys to have strong male role models in the household because it has always been a necessity for future generations to have a role model to emulate. Now to think of this in a business sense, always remember problems are never big or small. Just as our successes can be perceived as big or small, it was the intended goal that made us fall short. For example for those who want to be billionaires, and make only millions. Money should never be the goal, not that I will ever say you cannot wish for that but things in life that are to be wished for IN MY OPINION are those of importance like preparing our youth for the inevitable battles they may face in order to preserve their way of life. These skills of dealing with another male, whether they know them or not, will be life lessons they will carry with them till they know what it is to be in charge of their own lives. They will know the strength, courage, and more importantly the sacrifice necessary in order to sustain and provide for a family of their own. Just as my father had taught me not with words, but with actions. As long as you are present in their lives then the impact is just as important if they were not there for you. You learn from each other. A man learns how to teach the son, the son learns through rebellious acts how to do exactly as the father did to his father in order to prove he is worthy of his own way of life away from the protection from the man that has shown him one of the great joys of life of being a role model/teacher to another. Role model is defined as: a person looked to by others as an example to be imitated. To my younger readers, we cannot always choose our fathers. I have met plenty of children to where fathers are nowhere to be found, I have also met fathers that I wish never reproduced. Be mindful of who you imitate in this world. Those who think you don’t have a choice, just remember that you can always see the man you don’t wish to become. Then spend the rest of your life saying you will be better. Commit to it, and make it part of your life’s pursuit. Bangov Actual, out.
