An old Irish saying defines charm as the ability to get someone to say “Yes” before you even ask the question. Your presence invokes such a warm feeling from someone else that they’ll gladly do what they can to please you. So how is your fatherhood C.H.A.R.M.? Here’s how to exponentially increase your charm with your children:
C — Converse. Talk regularly with your kids on topics they’re interested in.
H — Have fun. Do activities with your children that evoke a lot of laughter.
A — Ask. Ask open-ended questions not just about their day, but what they think about culture, politics, education etc. Don’t judge. Just listen.
R — Read. Read books/magazines/websites together with them and talk about the contents.
M — Make memories. Keep that digital camera and video recorder handy to capture those golden moments in years to come.
