Lead your home, your daughter will follow 🧵

1/ The vibe of your home starts with you
Your energy sets the tone for everyone else.
If your wife is "off" or your kids have a bad day, YOU still control the atmosphere

2/ Model the marriage you want her to emulate
Your relationship with your wife is her idea of love and respect
Show her how a man treats a woman through patience, kindness, and leadership because she’s always watching

6/ Family time matters
You don’t need elaborate outings (but plan some adventures)

7/ Be her calm in the storm
Life is crazy for teens today. You are calm, cool, and stable.
Pray, laugh, talk, be there for her. That’s what she needs
