How can dads CONNECT with their children?

Much research suggests that connecting with your youth comes from TIME and PRESENCE. All to often I hear that dads are present, but absent (meaning they are physiclly around in the child’s life, but not contributing to the positive growth and development of the father/child relationship).

What does TIME and PRESENCE look like for your family? Is it giving baths, reading books, making breakfast and/or “special/big” activities?

Question: What is Minnesota Say Yes to No?

It’s a book. It’s a conversation. It’s success for our kids.

Minnesota Say Yes to No is a statewide grassroots campaign igniting community conversations around raising healthy self-reliant kids so they will be successful in school and life. The campaign was formed around the book No: Why Kids – of All Ages – Need to Hear It and Ways Parents Can Say It (Free Press), by Dr. David Walsh.
